Before you book: heat pump servicing in Campbeltown
Whoever installed your heat pump, aftercare can be arranged in Campbeltown. Tell us the make and model and roughly how old it is, and we will set out what the visit involves before you book.
Service visits in Campbeltown include unvented cylinder safety checks alongside the heat pump itself. Heat pumps in Campbeltown that sit near trees or hedges often need their outdoor coil cleared of leaves at the annual service.
An annual service keeps a heat pump running efficiently, catches small faults early and is often a condition of the manufacturer's warranty.
- Landlords who need dated service records for each property
- Systems where the manufacturer's warranty requires annual servicing
- Homes where running costs have crept up or rooms feel cooler than before
What's included
- Magnetic filter and strainer clean, with system pressure topped up
- Controls and error log check, with settings adjusted where needed
- Glycol or antifreeze protection test where fitted
- Unvented cylinder safety checks and legionella cycle check
- Refrigerant circuit checks on split systems by an F-gas certified engineer
Homes in Campbeltown and across Argyll and Bute can book servicing at a time of year that suits them, ideally before winter.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in Scotland
In Scotland, heat pump funding comes through Home Energy Scotland rather than the Boiler Upgrade Scheme: a grant of up to £7,500 (up to £1,500 extra for eligible rural and island homes) and an optional interest-free loan of up to £7,500. For a Campbeltown home, apply and receive the written offer before the installation date is fixed.

Heat pump servicing in Campbeltown: questions
What should I check before booking a visit in Campbeltown?
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 you also cover Girvan?
Yes. We arrange heat pump servicing and repairs in Girvan, which is about 32 miles south-east of Campbeltown, and across Argyll and Bute.
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.
Is servicing needed to keep my warranty valid?
Often, yes. Many manufacturer warranties require an annual service with a dated record, and some extended warranties require an approved installer. Manufacturer warranties pass to you, and the length depends on the make and model. Check your warranty documents, and keep every service record safe with your MCS certificate and handover pack.
Do I need to do anything between services?
A little. Keep the area around the outdoor unit clear of leaves, snow, plants and stored items so air flows freely. Check the system pressure gauge occasionally if you have one, and note any error codes. Avoid covering the unit or building an enclosure around it without advice, as this can reduce performance.
