We repair heat pumps in Bexhill-on-Sea whoever installed them, including older monobloc and split systems. Across Bexhill-on-Sea and East Sussex, refrigerant repairs on split systems are carried out by an F-gas certified engineer.
When a heat pump shows an error, loses pressure or stops heating, an engineer diagnoses the cause and explains the repair and its cost before fixing it.
- Rooms or hot water not getting warm enough
- Heat pumps showing an error code or fault light
- Heat pumps installed by another company that need a second opinion
What's included
- Testing of sensors, pumps, valves, pressures and electrics
- A clear explanation of the fault and a price for the repair before work goes ahead
- Fault-finding visit at a rate agreed before attending
- Refrigerant repairs by an F-gas certified engineer where needed

For repeated faults in Bexhill-on-Sea, the engineer looks at the system design as well as the failed part.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in England
Homes in Bexhill-on-Sea can use the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, which takes £7,500 off the cost of an air source heat pump when it replaces fossil-fuel or electric heating. Replacing oil or LPG heating qualifies for £9,000 for installations from 21 July 2026 to 31 March 2027, and air-to-air systems for £2,500. The MCS-certified installer named in your quote applies for the grant and deducts it from the price.

Heat pump repairs in Bexhill-on-Sea: questions
Can you work on a heat pump in Bexhill-on-Sea that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Bexhill-on-Sea, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you get in touch.
What should I check before booking a visit in Bexhill-on-Sea?
Note any error code on the controller, check the system pressure gauge if you have one, and make sure the outdoor unit is clear of leaves or snow. Photos of the unit and controller help.
Will the engineer need access indoors as well as outside?
Usually yes. The outdoor unit, the hot water cylinder, the controls and the pipework and valves indoors are all part of the visit, so allow access to each.
Do refrigerant repairs need a specialist?
Yes. Any work on a heat pump's refrigerant circuit, such as tracing a leak, replacing a component or re-gassing, must by law be done by an F-gas certified engineer where the refrigerant is fluorinated, such as R32; units using R290 (propane) need an engineer trained in flammable refrigerants. On split systems the refrigerant runs through pipes inside your home, so leaks there are more likely than on sealed monobloc units.
How much does a heat pump repair cost?
Heat pump repairs have a typical range of £90–£1,100, including VAT, depending on the part and labour involved. Sensor replacements sit at the lower end, while control boards and refrigerant repairs on split systems sit higher. Every repair starts with a fault-finding visit, with a guide price of £90–£180 for the first hour, and the repair is priced before work goes ahead.
