Heat pump repairs in Ludlow: what to expect
Whoever installed your heat pump, aftercare can be arranged in Ludlow. Tell us the make and model and roughly how old it is, and we will set out what the visit involves before you book.
Heat pump owners in Ludlow can arrange a fault-finding visit at a rate agreed before an engineer attends. For repeated faults in Ludlow, 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 pump repairs in Ludlow: questions
How much does a visit cost in Ludlow?
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 Ludlow that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Ludlow, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you get in touch.
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 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.
Why does my heat pump keep switching on and off?
Frequent starting and stopping, called short cycling, is usually caused by an oversized heat pump, low water flow, too many zones closing at once or controls set with too narrow a range. It reduces efficiency and wears components. An engineer can check the settings, flow rates and design, and can often improve it with control changes before any parts are needed.
