A heat pump needs to be designed around the building. We look at its age, construction, insulation, glazing and room sizes, along with the existing radiators, pipework and controls. Hot-water use and suitable equipment positions are also part of the assessment.
Homes around Braintree vary considerably. Older properties in Bocking and the town centre can have heating systems that have been altered several times. Newer developments around Great Notley may be well insulated but have tighter outdoor layouts. Beyond the town, rural homes near Panfield, Rayne and Coggeshall may be replacing oil, LPG or direct electric heating.
These details affect the system size and installation design. For an air-to-water heat pump, we calculate the output required in each room and check whether the existing radiators can deliver it at a lower flow temperature. With an air-to-air system, we consider the position of each indoor unit and how effectively the air will circulate.
We'll explain our recommendations and any necessary alterations before you decide whether to proceed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is my Braintree home suitable for a heat pump?
Many local properties are suitable, but we need to assess insulation, heat loss, existing heating and available equipment space first.
Are heat pumps suitable for rural homes?
Yes. A heat pump can provide an alternative to oil, LPG or direct electric heating. The system still needs to be correctly designed for the property.
Will I need new radiators?
Not always. We calculate the output required in each room and check which existing radiators can be retained.
Can a heat pump provide my hot water?
An air-to-water system can heat water stored in a compatible cylinder. Air-to-air systems don't normally provide domestic hot water.
Can I receive a government grant?
Eligible installations may receive funding, with up to £9,000 available in qualifying circumstances. The amount depends on the property, existing heating and current scheme rules.
Is finance available?
Options may include 0% finance and plans from £15 per month. Finance is subject to status, lender approval and applicable terms.
