Before you book: heat pump repairs in Gloucester
A heat pump that is serviced and set up properly keeps running efficiently for many years. Many heat pump faults trace back to settings, low pressure or a worn part rather than the heat pump itself, and those can usually be put right.
Heat pump owners in Gloucester can arrange a fault-finding visit at a rate agreed before an engineer attends. For repeated faults in Gloucester, the engineer looks at the system design as well as the failed part.
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
- 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
- Fault-finding visit at a rate agreed before attending
- System refill, venting and recommissioning after the repair
- Testing of sensors, pumps, valves, pressures and electrics
- Reading of error history and operating data
Outdoor units in exposed spots around Gloucester can ice more heavily, so siting is checked as part of any icing fault.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in 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 Gloucester quote.

On the shortest day Gloucester gets about 7 hours 46 minutes of daylight, with the noon sun around 15° up. The heating season runs from autumn into spring, so a heat pump that is sized correctly and set up with weather compensation does most of its work in steady, cool conditions.

Heat pump repairs in Gloucester: questions
How much does a visit cost in Gloucester?
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.
Do you also cover Cheltenham?
Yes. We arrange heat pump servicing and repairs in Cheltenham, which is about 7 miles east of Gloucester, and across Gloucestershire.
What should I check before booking a visit in Gloucester?
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.
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.
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.
