Heat pump repairs for Haywards Heath 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.
We repair heat pumps in Haywards Heath whoever installed them, including older monobloc and split systems. Outdoor units in exposed spots around Haywards Heath can ice more heavily, so siting is checked as part of any icing fault.
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
- Rooms or hot water not getting warm enough
What's included
- Reading of error history and operating data
- System refill, venting and recommissioning after the repair
- Supply and fitting of replacement parts
- Testing of sensors, pumps, valves, pressures and electrics
- Refrigerant repairs by an F-gas certified engineer where needed
Heat pump owners in Haywards Heath can arrange a fault-finding visit at a rate agreed before an engineer attends.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in England
Homes in Haywards Heath 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 Haywards Heath: questions
Can you work on a heat pump in Haywards Heath that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Haywards Heath, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you get in touch.

What should I check before booking a visit in Haywards Heath?
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.
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.
Is ice on my heat pump a fault?
Some frost on the outdoor unit in cold, damp weather is normal, and the unit clears it with regular defrost cycles, often releasing a little vapour. It becomes a fault when thick ice builds up and does not clear, or when ice blocks the fan. That can point to poor airflow, a failed sensor, drainage problems or low refrigerant, and needs checking.
