Before you book: heat pump repairs in Stevenage

Whoever installed your heat pump, aftercare can be arranged in Stevenage. Tell us the make and model and roughly how old it is, and we will set out what the visit involves before you book.

Across Stevenage and Hertfordshire, refrigerant repairs on split systems are carried out by an F-gas certified engineer. Repairs in Stevenage that need a part ordered are explained and priced before the engineer leaves.

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
  • Heat pumps installed by another company that need a second opinion
  • Heat pumps showing an error code or fault light

What's included

  • Testing of sensors, pumps, valves, pressures and electrics
  • Supply and fitting of replacement parts
  • 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
  • System refill, venting and recommissioning after the repair

Heat pump owners in Stevenage can arrange a fault-finding visit at a rate agreed before an engineer attends.

Heat pump repairs in Stevenage: questions

Can you work on a heat pump in Stevenage that someone else installed?

Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Stevenage, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you get in touch.

How much does a visit cost in Stevenage?

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 Hitchin?

Yes. We arrange heat pump servicing and repairs in Hitchin, which is about 5 miles north-west of Stevenage, and across Hertfordshire.

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.

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.
