Heat pump servicing for Crewe homes
Whoever installed your heat pump, aftercare can be arranged in Crewe. Tell us the make and model and roughly how old it is, and we will set out what the visit involves before you book.
Homes in Crewe and across Cheshire can book servicing at a time of year that suits them, ideally before winter. Heat pumps in Crewe 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.
- Heat pumps installed by another company that need a new servicing arrangement
- Homes where running costs have crept up or rooms feel cooler than before
- Heat pumps a year or more past installation
What's included
- Unvented cylinder safety checks and legionella cycle check
- Controls and error log check, with settings adjusted where needed
- Glycol or antifreeze protection test where fitted
- A dated service record for your warranty and property files
- Expansion vessel, pressure relief and water quality checks
Landlords in Crewe can arrange servicing for several properties, with a dated record for each.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in England
Homes in Crewe 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.

Designing for Crewe's winters
Crewe has about 7 hours 33 minutes of daylight at midwinter and 16 hours 57 minutes at midsummer. That swing matters if you pair a heat pump with solar panels: summer generation can cover much of the hot water, winter generation far less.

Heat pump servicing in Crewe: questions
How often should a heat pump in Crewe 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.
Can you work on a heat pump in Crewe that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Crewe, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you get in touch.
What should I check before booking a visit in Crewe?
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 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.
What does a heat pump service not include?
A service covers inspection, cleaning, testing and adjustment. It does not include replacement parts, major repairs, system flushing or radiator changes, which are quoted separately if needed. If the engineer finds a fault, they explain what it is, what it would cost to fix and whether it needs doing now or can wait.
