Air source heat pumps in Wormley
Installing an air source heat pump in a home is zero-rated for VAT until 31 March 2027, then 5%. That follows HMRC Notice 708/6, and it doesn’t apply to businesses. For air-to-air systems, we confirm the VAT on your quote. Please treat this as general information rather than tax advice. The work covers homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, hot water cylinders and radiator systems, and the jobs we see most are checking emitters for a heat pump and not knowing whether a grant applies.
If your home in or near Wormley is heated by oil, LPG or electric heaters with no mains gas, an extra £1,500 is available through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme until March 2027.
Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. For example, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and its longer extensions apply to its air-to-water units only. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We work for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as homeowners and businesses. Tell us who the contact on site is and who should receive the paperwork and we will copy in whoever needs it.
Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Ask about the grant before you commit
- File the MCS certificate safely
- Keep radiators clear
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.
Keep radiators and indoor units unobstructed so the heat can get into the room.
Wormley questions
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Wormley?
Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including Wormley, if they qualify. Air-to-water and ground source systems attract £7,500. Air-to-air gets £2,500, but only where it takes over from fossil-fuel heating and covers the whole home’s heating demand. The installer applies, and we are MCS certified.
Do I need planning permission for a heat pump in Wormley?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. Historic England lists about 4 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Wormley. 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 cannot face a road. Where necessary, we check with the local planning authority (for Wormley, normally Waverley council).
What warranty do I get?
Warranty is the manufacturer’s own, on its terms. Terms differ by brand, and we set them out on your quote.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
For some brands, yes. Send us the make and model and we will tell you what the manufacturer expects, and book the service at the interval they recommend.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is written up and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That is the law, not just our preference, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Are my radiators big enough for 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.
When it’s something else
Not every problem is solved by air source heat pumps, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t put right:
- Insulation work, such as loft or cavity wall insulation
- Disconnecting or servicing a gas boiler
- Tax advice on your own circumstances
Not sure which it is? You can phone 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.

Advice
Air source heat pumps around Wormley
The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures put about 35% of homes in and around Wormley before 1919, and about 76% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the 2021 Census. In older homes, the heat loss calculation is especially important, as solid walls and draughts change the size of heat pump needed. Houses usually have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder.
Homeowners near Witley station often ask whether a heat pump can take over from the boiler, and the heat loss survey answers that. Period properties close to Church of All Saints can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first.
