Air source heat pumps around Uxbridge
About 34% of homes in the Uxbridge area have been built since 2000, according to VOA council tax data, and about 48% of households live in flats, according to Census 2021 figures. Newer homes usually lose less heat, which tends to suit a heat pump well. For flats, the first questions are where an outdoor unit could go, whether a cylinder fits and what the lease allows.
Historic houses such as Ickenham Hall, about 2.2 miles north-east, are a reminder that listed homes need consent before a heat pump goes in. Period properties close to Church of St Andrew can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first.

Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Uxbridge
For an air-to-water heat pump, the price is £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. In England and Wales, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers a £7,500 grant towards an eligible air-to-water installation, and as the installer we apply for it on your behalf. Eligibility depends on the property, so we confirm it before anything is agreed. Typical jobs include comparing heat pump types and replacing a combi boiler with a heat pump, on homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, air-to-air heat pumps and hot water cylinders.
For a house near Uxbridge, space outside is rarely the problem, so the main questions are heat loss, radiators and the electrics.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We will tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

What owners can safely do
On air conditioning, the filters in the indoor unit are typically the one part owners can clean where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.
Owners can handle the everyday basics: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.

The process
The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: diagnose, treat and sign off. First we check the system or the space against the plan, then we do the work, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. The middle part takes longest, which takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. Because we plan from photos or a survey, a job in Uxbridge can typically be finished in one visit.
- First we talk through the property and the current system.
- Every room’s heat loss is worked out on site.
- We design the system, check the radiators and cylinder and look at the outdoor unit position.
- Cost, grant and VAT appear on one fixed-price quote.
- Then it’s fitted, commissioned and registered with MCS.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets out of the rooms we are working in
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go

Uxbridge: your questions answered
Will a heat pump in Uxbridge need planning permission?
It depends on the property. There’s a conservation area, the Greenway Conservation Area, close to central Uxbridge. Heat pumps on houses are often permitted development, but listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where it’s needed, we check with the planning department at Hillingdon council, usually the authority for Uxbridge.
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Uxbridge?
Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Uxbridge is in England, where it applies. The amount depends on the type of heat pump, and the survey confirms which applies. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.
What’s the price of a heat pump installation?
Air-to-water systems are £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before any grant. Your price depends on the survey, the emitters and the hot water, and you get a fixed-price quote.
What’s the difference between air-to-water and air-to-air heat pumps?
Air-to-water replaces the boiler for heating and hot water, while air-to-air heats and cools rooms, and we help you choose. We install both types.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. Every visit is written up, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. File them with the system’s paperwork.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
We start with protection: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards before we leave.
Will my radiators work with a heat pump?
It varies from room to room. We check them all during the survey, so the quote covers any changes.
Let and managed properties
Bigger systems bring extra duties: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the paperwork can go to both.
Fixed-price quotes for air source heat pumps in Uxbridge
The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- The number of rooms, units or zones
- One-off work versus a regular service cycle
- How easy the units are to reach
The pipe route, the height of the units and how we reach them all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before we start.
What we need to know
Simple jobs can often be priced from photos and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- The remote or wall controller showing any error
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
- The fuse board and where it is in the property
To help us quote: where the property is and what kind of building it is, pictures of the rooms or units, the brand and model of anything already fitted and anything you’ve noticed, such as an error code or a noise. Then give us a ring on 07833 053749 or send an email.
