Before you book: heat pump servicing in Antrim

Whoever installed your heat pump, aftercare can be arranged in Antrim. 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 Antrim and across County Antrim can book servicing at a time of year that suits them, ideally before winter. If a heat pump in Antrim has not been serviced for a while, the first visit includes a full check of settings and pressures.

An annual service keeps a heat pump running efficiently, catches small faults early and is often a condition of the manufacturer's warranty.

  • Systems where the manufacturer's warranty requires annual servicing
  • Heat pumps installed by another company that need a new servicing arrangement
  • Heat pumps a year or more past installation

What's included

  • Magnetic filter and strainer clean, with system pressure topped up
  • Glycol or antifreeze protection test where fitted

  • Unvented cylinder safety checks and legionella cycle check
  • Controls and error log check, with settings adjusted where needed

Landlords in Antrim can arrange servicing for several properties, with a dated record for each.

How much does a visit cost in Antrim?

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.

Yes. We arrange heat pump servicing and repairs in Ballyclare, which is about 8 miles north-east of Antrim, and across County Antrim.

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.
