What happens if it’s left?
A sudden boiler failure rarely leaves room to plan a heat pump properly. Surveying and designing in advance means the system is sized right and any grant is applied for while the old heating still works. Dealing with it now is typically simpler than a breakdown later.
Every job is different, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The equipment, how we reach it, the route between units and the work needed all make a difference.

Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Wokefield
Heat pumps run at lower flow temperatures than most boilers, so radiators may need to be larger to give out the same heat. The survey shows which rooms are fine and which need changes and anything that needs changing is in the quote. The work covers underfloor heating, air-to-air heat pumps and hot water cylinders, and the jobs we see most are checking emitters for a heat pump and checking eligibility for a heat pump grant.
Homes around Wokefield usually have room outside for a heat pump, so the design comes down to heat loss, radiators and hot water.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We’ll explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

Your questions about air source heat pumps in Wokefield
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Wokefield?
Wokefield is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. Whether your home qualifies, and for how much, depends on the type of heat pump and the heating it replaces. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.
Do you cover smaller places like Wokefield?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like water coming from a unit or a critical room overheating, call our 24/7 line and we’ll tell you what to do first.
How long does a heat pump installation take?
Expect it to take from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. How much of the heating changes decides most of the time, and we confirm the timing with your quote.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump?
The heat loss survey answers that, room by room. Rooms where the radiator is big enough stay as they are, and any that need upsizing are set out in the quote.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s a legal requirement, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
What does an air-to-water heat pump cost?
An air-to-water heat pump costs £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes) before the grant. Eligible homes in England and Wales can get £7,500 through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme though not every home qualifies.

After we’ve gone
Simple habits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Clear leaves and debris from the outdoor unit
- Keep the MCS certificate with the manufacturer’s paperwork
- Find out the grant position at the survey
If you were eligible for a grant, we handle the application and keep you updated, as the installer applies for it.
Leave space around the outdoor unit. Airflow is what it runs on, so keep it clear all year.
When to call us in Wokefield
An ageing boiler is often the moment people start thinking about a heat pump. Planning the change before the boiler fails gives you time to survey, design and apply for any grant instead of making a rushed decision when the heating stops.
Common reasons people call us include:
- Moving away from fossil-fuel heating
- An oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life
- Comparing heat pump types
Sizing comes from the heat each room loses on a cold day, not from the size of the old boiler.

What happens on the day
Each visit runs to the same pattern: agree the plan on site, put the dust sheets down, carry out the job, test what we have done and talk you through it. The visit itself takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. Visits to Wokefield are agreed with you in advance and planned so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
- 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.
- A fixed-price quote explains the cost, the grant position and the VAT.
- Then it’s fitted, commissioned and registered with MCS.
Getting ready for the visit
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
How to get a quote
Getting a quote is straightforward. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day. If we need to see the property first, we book a survey at a time that works for you.
