Air source heat pumps in Wood Green
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. If the problem is no space for a hot water cylinder and questions about listed buildings or conservation areas, we can sort it out.
Homes in Wood Green are often flats and terraces, where outside space is limited, and that decides which kind of heat pump works. Air-to-water needs room for the outdoor unit and typically a cylinder, while an air-to-air system needs less space.
Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order, and every service is written up.

Common questions in Wood Green
Can you fit air conditioning in a London flat in Wood Green?
Normally, yes, though leaseholders normally need the freeholder’s agreement. We look at where the outdoor unit could go, such as a balcony, flat roof or rear wall, and write it up for the freeholder or agent.
Is planning permission needed for a heat pump in Wood Green?
It depends on the property. There’s a conservation area, the Trinity Gardens Conservation Area, close to central Wood Green. 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 Haringey council, usually the authority for Wood Green.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
Companies working on equipment that contains F gas must be certified by an approved body, and the engineers need their own qualifications. It means the refrigerant in your system is handled legally.
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 the quote is fixed.
Which brands do you work with?
We work with the leading brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we’ll take it from there.
Will you make a mess?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and we tidy up as we go. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
What accreditations do you have?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we are an F-Gas certified company. NICEIC approval, MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership sit alongside it.
Air source heat pumps in Wood Green: the local picture
The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures put about 62% of homes in Wood Green and the neighbourhoods around it before 1919, and the 2021 Census found about 60% of households live in flats. Period properties can still suit a heat pump, but the design has to start from accurate heat loss figures. In flats, space for an outdoor unit and a cylinder can be limited, and the lease and freeholder come into it, so air-to-air is sometimes the better fit. For a London home, the outdoor unit position and the MCS noise check need careful planning.
Live in one of the older houses around Church of St Michael and All Angels? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status. Historic houses such as Bruce Castle, about 1.4 miles east, are a reminder that listed homes need consent before a heat pump goes in.

Owner checks or an engineer?
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.
Write down what you notice: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo of the display helps even more.
Let and managed properties
If you look after several properties, we can plan visits across the portfolio and price them together. Every address has its own paperwork, so the files stay tidy.
We also work for facilities teams in offices, schools and public buildings in Wood Green and across Greater London. Work can be phased by floor, zone or building to keep disruption down.
Honest limits
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Improving the building’s insulation
- A grant for a home that doesn’t meet the scheme rules
- Tax rulings, which only HMRC can give
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 07833 053749 and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we do, step by step
Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we explain what was done and answer your questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. All told, the work takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. In a London area like Wood Green, parking and access are worth sorting out before the day.
- 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.
- Cost, grant and VAT appear on one fixed-price quote.
- We install, commission and register the system under MCS.
Before we arrive
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
