Pricing air source heat pumps in Westbourne Green
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- What state the existing equipment is in
- How easy the units are to reach
- The number of rooms, units or zones
No two properties are the same, so we price each one individually. The system, the access, the pipe routes and the parts involved all play a part.

About our air source heat pumps in Westbourne Green
As an MCS certified installer, we fit air source heat pumps for homes in Westbourne Green and the rest of Greater London. There are two kinds: air-to-water, which heats radiators or underfloor heating and your hot water, and air-to-air, which warms rooms through indoor units and can also cool. We’ll explain which type fits your home and why. Typical jobs include questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme and questions about where the outdoor unit can go, across hot water cylinders, homes heated by oil, LPG or gas and air-to-water heat pumps.
For flats in Westbourne Green, the lease, the freeholder and the rules for flats all come into it. The planning rules for flats are stricter than for houses, and we check before designing.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight, and every service is written up.

What happens on the day
The first job on site is protection: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby, and we ask before moving anything. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker, and we clear up before we go. Before a visit in Westbourne Green, we ask where the van can stop and how we reach the outdoor unit.
- First we find out about the property, the heating you have now and what you are hoping for.
- We survey the home room by room for heat loss, and check the emitters, hot water and outdoor unit position.
- We send a fixed-price quote that shows the equipment, the grant position and the VAT.
- Installation covers the outdoor unit, the indoor connections and the controls.
- Commissioning, MCS certification and a handover of the controls finish the job.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Keep pets and children away from the work area
- Let us know where we can park and unload

Advice
Air source heat pumps in Westbourne Green: the local picture
Valuation Office Agency council tax records put about 67% of homes in Westbourne Green and the neighbourhoods around it before 1919, and the 2021 Census found about 91% of households live in flats. Older homes can lose heat faster, so a room-by-room heat loss calculation, and sometimes insulation or larger radiators, comes before sizing a heat pump. Flats are often harder for air-to-water systems, so we look at whether air-to-air suits better. For a London home, the outdoor unit position and the MCS noise check need careful planning.
For a home near London Paddington station, the survey looks at whether an air-to-water or air-to-air heat pump suits better. If your home is one of the older properties near St Mary Magdalene, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen.

Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system is mostly common sense. A few tips:
- Leave indoor units unobstructed
- Avoid switching the heat pump on and off often
- Find out the grant position at the survey
The warranty on the heat pump is the manufacturer’s, on its own terms. We go through the conditions with you, including any servicing they ask for.
Leave space around the outdoor unit. It needs good airflow to collect heat from outside so keep it unobstructed.
Westbourne Green questions
Can I fit a heat pump in Westbourne Green without planning permission?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. The Bayswater Conservation Area is close to the centre of Westbourne Green. A heat pump on a house can be permitted development if it meets the conditions, including the MCS noise check, but not within the grounds of a listed building, and in a conservation area the outdoor unit can’t face a road. Where necessary, we check with the planning department at Westminster council, typically the authority for Westbourne Green.
Is the heat pump grant available in Westbourne Green?
Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Westbourne Green is in England, where it applies. It gives £7,500 towards an air-to-water or ground source heat pump, or £2,500 towards an air-to-air heat pump that replaces the fossil-fuel heating and meets the whole home’s heating need. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.
How soon will you get back to me?
We reply to enquiries the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
It depends on the manufacturer’s terms. Some warranty terms require the system to be serviced regularly by a qualified engineer, so check the terms or ask us. Keep every service record either way.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes, on every job. 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.
Which type of heat pump is right for my home?
Air-to-water suits homes with radiators and a cylinder; air-to-air suits rooms that need heating and cooling. The survey helps decide. We install both types.
What warranty do I get?
Warranty comes from the manufacturer and depends on the brand and product. For example, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Westbourne Green
We also work for facilities teams in offices, schools and public buildings across Greater London. Larger buildings can be done in stages around the people who use them.
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 can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.
