Heat pump repairs for Heathfield homes
Whoever installed your heat pump, aftercare can be arranged in Heathfield. Tell us the make and model and roughly how old it is, and we will set out what the visit involves before you book.
Repairs in Heathfield that need a part ordered are explained and priced before the engineer leaves. Outdoor units in exposed spots around Heathfield can ice more heavily, so siting is checked as part of any icing fault.
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.
- Heat pumps showing an error code or fault light
- Systems losing pressure or needing frequent topping up
- Heat pumps installed by another company that need a second opinion
What's included
- Refrigerant repairs by an F-gas certified engineer where needed
- System refill, venting and recommissioning after the repair
- 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
- Testing of sensors, pumps, valves, pressures and electrics
We repair heat pumps in Heathfield whoever installed them, including older monobloc and split systems.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in England
Homes in Heathfield 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.

Short winter days in Heathfield and what they mean
On the shortest day Heathfield gets about 7 hours 55 minutes of daylight, and the winter sun reaches only around 16° above the horizon at noon. Winters this far south are milder than in most of the UK, which helps a heat pump run at low flow temperatures for much of the season.

Heat pump repairs in Heathfield: questions
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 you also cover Uckfield?
Yes. We arrange heat pump servicing and repairs in Uckfield, which is about 7 miles west of Heathfield, and across East Sussex.
What should I check before booking a visit in Heathfield?
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.
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.
Can you repair a heat pump installed by another company?
Yes. We carry out fault-finding and repairs on heat pumps installed by other companies, including monobloc and split systems. Tell us the make, model and approximate age when you get in touch, plus any error code shown. If the system is still under the manufacturer's warranty, it may be quicker to contact the original installer or manufacturer first.
