What to know about heat pump repairs in Haddington
Whoever installed your heat pump, aftercare can be arranged in Haddington. 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 Haddington that need a part ordered are explained and priced before the engineer leaves. Across Haddington and Edinburgh and the Lothians, 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.
- Systems losing pressure or needing frequent topping up
- Outdoor units that have become noisy, iced up or keep switching on and off
- Heat pumps showing an error code or fault light
What's included
- Refrigerant repairs by an F-gas certified engineer where needed
- Reading of error history and operating data
- Testing of sensors, pumps, valves, pressures and electrics
- System refill, venting and recommissioning after the repair
- Supply and fitting of replacement parts
Outdoor units in exposed spots around Haddington can ice more heavily, so siting is checked as part of any icing fault.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in Scotland
In Scotland, heat pump funding comes through Home Energy Scotland rather than the Boiler Upgrade Scheme: a grant of up to £7,500 (up to £1,500 extra for eligible rural and island homes) and an optional interest-free loan of up to £7,500. For a Haddington home, apply and receive the written offer before the installation date is fixed.

Heat pump repairs in Haddington: questions
What should I check before booking a visit in Haddington?
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 often should a heat pump in Haddington be serviced?
Once a year is the usual recommendation, and many manufacturers make annual servicing a condition of the warranty. Check your warranty terms for the exact requirement.
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.
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.
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.
