Heat pump repairs for Melton Mowbray homes
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.
Outdoor units in exposed spots around Melton Mowbray can ice more heavily, so siting is checked as part of any icing fault. Across Melton Mowbray and Leicestershire, 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.
- 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
- Rooms or hot water not getting warm enough
What's included
- System refill, venting and recommissioning after the repair
- Supply and fitting of replacement parts
- Testing of sensors, pumps, valves, pressures and electrics
- Reading of error history and operating data
- Fault-finding visit at a rate agreed before attending
We repair heat pumps in Melton Mowbray whoever installed them, including older monobloc and split systems.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in England
Homes in Melton Mowbray 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.

Heat pump repairs in Melton Mowbray: questions
How often should a heat pump in Melton Mowbray 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.
How much does a visit cost in Melton Mowbray?
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.
Can you work on a heat pump in Melton Mowbray that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Melton Mowbray, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you get in touch.
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.
