About our air source heat pumps in West Byfleet
An air-to-water heat pump costs £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme can provide £7,500 towards an eligible air-to-water system in England and Wales and the installer makes the application. Not every home qualifies, so we check eligibility before you commit. The work covers air-to-water heat pumps, radiator systems and homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, and people most often call us about checking eligibility for a heat pump grant and planning and permitted development questions.
If your home near West Byfleet has no mains gas, the grant can be bigger. Homes heated by oil or LPG with no mains gas can get an extra £1,500 on the Boiler Upgrade Scheme until March 2027, for an air source or ground source heat pump.
The records are your system’s health record: what was fitted or found, what was done and when. It makes the next visit quicker and any warranty question simpler, so keep it safe.

Pricing air source heat pumps in West Byfleet
Your quote is based on your property. We take into account:
- Whether the existing supply is suitable
- Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
- The pipe route between the units
The cost depends on the type of system and how many units are involved, 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.
Helping us quote
Simple jobs can often be priced from pictures and some basics. Useful things to send:
- The make and model of the system, from the label
- The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Add the address and what you’d like done, and many jobs can be priced from that.
Leave it or put it right?
Planning rules have specific conditions. We look at the planning position early, so there are no surprises covering listed buildings, conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. A dirty or faulty system works harder and costs more to run.
Putting several jobs into one visit often makes better use of the time. Mention every unit or room you need covered and we’ll price it together.

Advice
What a heat pump looks like in West Byfleet
About 41% of homes across West Byfleet and its surrounding area date from 1945 to 1972, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and about 73% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Homes of that age often have cavity walls that may or may not be insulated, which the survey checks. Detached and semi-detached houses usually have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder. The Byfleet Corner and Rosemount Parade, West Byfleet Conservation Area lies close to the centre of West Byfleet, within about a third of a mile. There are 7 conservation areas within a mile of the centre of West Byfleet. About 4 listed entries lie within half a mile of central West Byfleet, Church of St John the Baptist (grade II) among them. That affects heat pumps: listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit where the outdoor unit can go under permitted development. Where necessary, we check with the planning team at Woking council, which usually handles West Byfleet.
With Byfleet Manor about 1.8 miles east, it’s worth asking whether your own home is listed before planning a heat pump. Live in one of the older houses around Church of St John the Baptist? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status.

Questions from West Byfleet
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in West Byfleet?
Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including West Byfleet, if they qualify. The grant is £7,500 for an air source (air-to-water) heat pump and £2,500 for an air-to-air system that replaces the existing fossil-fuel heating. You do not apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
Will you come out to West Byfleet?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We’ll work out which band applies to yours.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.
When will I hear back?
You’ll hear from us the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
For some brands, yes. Read the manufacturer’s terms, or send us the make and model and we will explain them, and book the service at the interval they recommend.

Aftercare tips
So the system stays in good health:
- Avoid switching the heat pump on and off often
- Check what your manufacturer’s warranty asks of you
- Keep the outdoor unit clear all year
Handover includes the controls and how to get the best from a heat pump. Heat pumps tend to work best running steadily rather than in short bursts so we set the controls up with you.
Keep radiators and indoor units unobstructed so the heat can get into the room.
