Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in West Liss
A £2,500 grant is available for some air-to-air heat pumps, with conditions. 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; adding it alongside a boiler doesn’t qualify. Common call-outs are for moving away from fossil-fuel heating and radiators that may be too small for a heat pump, across homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, underfloor heating and air-to-water heat pumps.
If your home in or near West Liss 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.
We are an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Our engineers hold the F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

What you can do yourself, and what needs us
Leave the units and pipework where they are. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrics need care too. Ask us to quote for a move instead.
Some faults have simple causes you can check first: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and call us on 07833 053749 or email us.

The process
There’s very little for you to do on the day. Someone needs to let us in and show us the units, or where they’re going, and the rest is down to us. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. Rural lanes and tight entrances are worth mentioning before a visit to West Liss.
- You tell us about the home and what you want from a heat pump.
- A survey covers heat loss, radiators, hot water and where the outdoor unit could sit.
- We recommend air-to-water or air-to-air and check the grant position.
- We install the heat pump and connect it up.
- After commissioning, you get the MCS certificate and a handover.
Before we arrive
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Keep pets out of the rooms we’re working in

Advice
Your questions about air source heat pumps in West Liss
Will you come out to West Liss?
Yes. West Liss is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Is planning permission needed for a heat pump in West Liss?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. The Liss Conservation Area is close to the centre of West Liss. On a house, an air source heat pump can often go ahead under permitted development, with an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 cubic metres and an installation that meets MCS 020(a), which includes a noise check. Those rights do not reach the grounds of a listed building, and conservation areas rule out walls or roofs facing a road. If that might affect you, we ask the planning department at East Hampshire council, normally the authority for West Liss.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, usually whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
Will my radiators work with a heat pump?
Some radiators may be fine as they are, and some may need to be larger. At the lower temperatures a heat pump uses, radiators need more surface, and the survey checks each one.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what’s needed, where things go and what access we need and the fixed price is built on it.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
F-Gas certification shows a company is approved to work on equipment containing fluorinated gases, such as the refrigerant in air conditioning and heat pumps. That is not optional: it’s required by law, and AirCon Doctor is certified.
How quickly will you reply?
You will hear from us the same working day. For a breakdown that can’t wait, call our 24/7 emergency line.
What air conditioning will not do
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Gas boiler work, such as disconnecting the old boiler, which needs a Gas Safe registered engineer
- Grants for hybrid systems or replacements of low-carbon systems
- Planning decisions, which rest with the council

Air source heat pumps around West Liss
The last census (2021) found about 71% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Houses usually have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder.
Older homes near Church of St Mary may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed. If your home is near Liss station and heated by a gas boiler, an air-to-water heat pump can replace it where the survey shows it suits.

What happens if it’s left?
