How we handle air source heat pumps in Wrotham Heath
An air-to-water heat pump costs £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. In England and Wales, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers a £7,500 grant towards an eligible air-to-water installation and the installer makes the application. Eligibility depends on the property, so we confirm it before anything is agreed. Typical jobs include checking emitters for a heat pump and replacing a combi boiler with a heat pump, across air-to-water heat pumps, air-to-air heat pumps and hot water cylinders.
In a place like Wrotham Heath, some homes are listed, and permitted development does not cover listed buildings, so consent comes first.
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company and NICEIC approved for electrical work, MCS certified for heat pumps and a Checkatrade member. Our engineers hold the F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

Wrotham Heath: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Wrotham Heath?
Yes. Wrotham Heath is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Wrotham Heath?
Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including Wrotham Heath, if they qualify. 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.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
We start with protection: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Any drilling is agreed with you first, and we clear up the dust and offcuts when we finish.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
Not the refrigerant work. The F-gas rules require certified companies and qualified engineers for it, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
Anyone installing, repairing or servicing the refrigerant side must be qualified, and their company certified. Ask to see proof before booking anyone and we will gladly show you ours.
Which type of heat pump is right for my home?
It depends on your home, your heating and whether you want cooling. The grant is £7,500 for eligible air-to-water systems and £2,500 for air-to-air in limited cases, and we set out the options after the survey.

What we do, step by step
Everything the job needs comes with us, from tools and test equipment to ladders and dust sheets. All we ask is clear access to the units, or to where they’ll go, and to the consumer unit. On site, the work takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. If a lane or gateway near Wrotham Heath is tight for a van, let us know and we’ll plan for it.
- You tell us about the home and what you want from a heat pump.
- The survey checks heat loss, emitters, hot water and the outdoor unit position.
- We recommend air-to-water or air-to-air and check the grant position.
- Installation follows on the agreed dates.
- After commissioning, you get the MCS certificate and a handover.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
How to get a quote
Some jobs can be priced from photos, while others need a survey. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.

Homes in Wrotham Heath and heat pumps
Census 2021 figures found about 73% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Detached and semi-detached houses normally have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 8 within half a mile of the centre, such as Nepicar House (grade II*). Where a home is affected, the outdoor unit position is settled with Tonbridge and Malling council, typically the planning authority here before the heat pump design is finished.
Live in one of the older houses around Church of St Margaret? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status. If your home is listed, like Old Soar Manor about 2.7 miles south-west, listed building consent comes before any heat pump work.

How the job changes from property to property
Air-to-air heat pumps
The £2,500 grant for air-to-air applies only when the system replaces the fossil-fuel heating and covers the whole home’s demand. It must be installed by an MCS certified installer and be in a home.
Heat loss surveys
Without a proper survey, a heat pump can be too big or too small and that matters for comfort and running.
From one of our customers
“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
