Rented and managed buildings
If you look after several properties, we can quote and plan the work across all of them. Each property gets its own records, so each one has its own history.
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.
How we handle air source heat pumps in Welborne
Air-to-air heat pumps can qualify for a £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, but only in some cases. It has to replace the fossil-fuel heating, cover the whole heating demand, be fitted by an MCS certified installer and be in a home, so an add-on next to a boiler is not eligible. If the problem is radiators that may be too small for a heat pump and questions about where the outdoor unit can go, we can sort it out.
If your home in or near Welborne is heated by oil, LPG or electric heaters with no mains gas, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme adds an extra £1,500 until March 2027 for an air source or ground source heat pump, on top of the £7,500.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We’ll tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

How the job changes from property to property
VAT on heat pumps
For air-to-air systems, HMRC’s view depends on the product and the situation, so we confirm the VAT on your quote.
Outdoor unit position and planning
Permitted development conditions in England include an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 m³ and must meet MCS 020(a) and not be used solely for cooling. Listed building curtilages are excluded.
Homes in Welborne and heat pumps
At about 3 miles from the coast, Welborne is close enough for sea air to matter. Salt air is hard on outdoor units, so a heat pump near the sea needs a sensible position and regular checks, and some models offer corrosion protection for coastal sites. About 53% of homes across Welborne and its surrounding area date from 1945 to 1972, according to VOA council tax data, and Census 2021 figures found about 86% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Homes of that age often have cavity walls that may or may not be insulated, which the survey checks. Detached and semi-detached houses typically have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder.
Period properties close to Church of St Francis can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first. Every heat pump design starts with a room-by-room heat loss calculation.
Welborne is about 2 miles north of Fareham, in Hampshire. Our engineers cover Welborne for air source heat pumps and across the rest of Hampshire. In Hampshire alone we list 683 places and Welborne is among them. Worthing, roughly 35 miles off, has its own page on this site.
We work across the PO17 postcode area and the roads nearby. Nearby, we also cover air source heat pumps in Crockerhill (1 mile east), Wickham Common (1 mile north-east), North Fareham (1 mile south-east), Hundred Acres (2 miles north-east) and Fareham (2 miles south). Within a short drive, we also cover Winchester (13 miles north-west), Gosport (6 miles south), Havant (9 miles east) and Eastleigh (9 miles north-west).

A little further out are Carron Row Farm Museum (2.4 miles south-west) and Portchester Castle (4.5 miles south-east). The countryside around Welborne includes Portsdown Hill and Swanwick Lakes.
How it works
Protection comes first: dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work and nothing is moved without asking you. After that, anything electrical is made safe and we start. It takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes, and we clear up before we go. For a village like Welborne, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- You tell us about the home and what you want from a heat pump.
- We survey for heat loss and look at radiators, cylinder space and outdoor unit options.
- We explain which type of heat pump suits the home and whether a grant could apply.
- Installation follows on the agreed dates.
- We commission it, complete the MCS certificate and show you how to use it.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking and loading
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
Getting a price
Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.

Welborne questions
Do you cover smaller places like Welborne?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Welborne?
Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including Welborne, if they qualify. Whether your home qualifies, and for how much, depends on the type of heat pump and the heating it replaces. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the job needs and how to do it, and the quote is based on that.
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. The final price depends on the heat loss survey, the radiators and the cylinder, and you get a fixed-price quote.
Do I need planning permission for a heat pump?
Many installations on houses in England fall under permitted development, subject to the rules. Listed buildings are excluded, and listed building consent is separate. We check what applies to you.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine, on all the main brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes, always. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, while repairs and services get a written note of what was found and done.
Why it’s worth doing now in Welborne
Permitted development rules can change, and conditions vary between properties. We look at the planning position early, so there are no surprises covering listed buildings, conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. Planning ahead for a job in Welborne means we can bring everything needed.
What you pay depends on the system and the number of rooms or units, the access and the parts and time the job needs. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.
