Before you book: heat pump repairs in Cirencester

Aftercare matters as much as installation. For a heat pump in Cirencester the visit checks the outdoor unit, the water circuit and the controls, and the engineer explains any settings that would help the system run more efficiently.

Repairs in Cirencester that need a part ordered are explained and priced before the engineer leaves. Heat pump owners in Cirencester can arrange a fault-finding visit at a rate agreed before an engineer attends.

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 installed by another company that need a second opinion
  • Rooms or hot water not getting warm enough
  • Heat pumps showing an error code or fault light

What's included

  • Reading of error history and operating data
  • Refrigerant repairs by an F-gas certified engineer where needed
  • Fault-finding visit at a rate agreed before attending
  • Testing of sensors, pumps, valves, pressures and electrics
  • Supply and fitting of replacement parts

Outdoor units in exposed spots around Cirencester can ice more heavily, so siting is checked as part of any icing fault.

Grants and rules for heat pumps in England

England

In England the Boiler Upgrade Scheme gives £7,500 towards an air source heat pump (£9,000 if it replaces oil or LPG, from 21 July 2026 to 31 March 2027), and since 28 April 2026 a valid EPC is no longer needed. The grant is applied for by the MCS-certified installer and shown as a deduction on your Cirencester quote.

Heat pump repairs in Cirencester: questions

Do you also cover Stroud?

Yes. We arrange heat pump servicing and repairs in Stroud, which is about 10 miles west of Cirencester, and across Gloucestershire.

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.

How much does a visit cost in Cirencester?

The rate for a service or fault-finding visit is agreed before anyone attends. Any repair is priced in writing before parts are ordered, so you decide before work goes ahead.

Why is my heat pump showing an error code?

An error code is the heat pump's way of reporting a problem it has detected, such as low water flow, a sensor reading out of range or a communication fault between units. Note the code and check the manual, as some codes clear after a simple reset or pressure top-up. If it returns, an engineer can trace the underlying cause.

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.
