How we handle air source heat pumps in Worthy Down

As an MCS certified installer, we fit air source heat pumps for homes in Worthy Down and the rest of Hampshire. 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. If the problem is deciding on the outdoor unit position and checking eligibility for a heat pump grant, we can sort it out.

Space for an outdoor unit is rarely an issue near Worthy Down, so the design comes down to heat loss, radiators and hot water.

Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. For any other brand, we explain the manufacturer’s terms on your quote.

What affects the quote in Worthy Down

Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether the existing supply is suitable
  • The size of the job
  • A single visit or a regular plan

No two properties are the same, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The equipment, how we reach it, the route between units and the work needed all play a part.

What we need to know

There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:

  • The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
  • A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
  • Any error code or flashing light on the display

Getting a quote is straightforward. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits you.

Owner checks or an engineer?

Owner care supports servicing; it doesn’t replace it. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the inside of the units, the refrigerant and the electrics still need a qualified engineer.

Keep a note of anything odd: 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.

Aftercare tips

Systems last better with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Let the heat pump run steadily, as set up at handover
  • Do not block radiators or indoor units with furniture
  • Book a yearly service

If you were eligible for a grant, we handle the application and keep you updated since the grant goes through the installer.

Keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and stored items. Airflow is what it runs on so keep it unobstructed.

Common questions in Worthy Down

Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Worthy Down?

Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including Worthy Down, if they qualify. Whether your home qualifies, and for how much, depends on the type of heat pump and the heating it replaces. You don’t apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.

Do you cover Worthy Down for air source heat pumps?

Yes. Worthy Down is one of the places we cover. To start, ring 07833 053749 or use the quote form with a few pictures.

What’s the price of a heat pump installation?

For air-to-water, it’s £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes) before any Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant. Air-to-air systems are priced after a survey, with the VAT confirmed on your quote.

How soon will you get back to me?

You will hear from us the same working day. For a breakdown that can’t wait, call our 24/7 emergency line.

Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?

Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine, on all the main brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.

Are you F-Gas certified?

F-Gas certified, NICEIC approved and MCS certified for heat pumps, and we’re Checkatrade members. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?

Responsibility is shared between the operator, typically whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.

What happens on the day

Think of the visit in three stages: diagnose, treat and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then we do the work, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. The middle part takes longest, and that takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. For a village like Worthy Down, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.

  1. We start with your plans and the property.
  2. The survey checks heat loss, emitters, hot water and the outdoor unit position.
  3. We recommend air-to-water or air-to-air and check the grant position.
  4. Installation follows on the agreed dates.
  5. After commissioning, you get the MCS certificate and a handover.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
  • Clear a path to the units and the space around them
  • Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process

Ask for a quote

The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the inside and outside of the property where the work is, plus the rating plate of any unit already there. Tell us the address and what you need, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.

What a heat pump looks like in Worthy Down

Sizing comes from the heat each room loses on a cold day, not from the size of the old boiler. Live in one of the older houses around St Margaret's? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status.
