What to know about heat pump servicing in Annan
Whoever installed your heat pump, aftercare can be arranged in Annan. Tell us the make and model and roughly how old it is, and we will set out what the visit involves before you book.
We service heat pumps in Annan whoever installed them, including monobloc and split systems. Landlords in Annan can arrange servicing for several properties, with a dated record for each.
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
- Systems where the manufacturer's warranty requires annual servicing
- Landlords who need dated service records for each property
What's included
- Expansion vessel, pressure relief and water quality checks
- Refrigerant circuit checks on split systems by an F-gas certified engineer
- A dated service record for your warranty and property files
- Glycol or antifreeze protection test where fitted
- Controls and error log check, with settings adjusted where needed
If a heat pump in Annan has not been serviced for a while, the first visit includes a full check of settings and pressures.
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 an Annan home, apply and receive the written offer before the installation date is fixed.

Designing for Annan's winters
On the shortest day Annan gets only about 7 hours 10 minutes of daylight and the noon sun sits around 12° above the horizon. Northern winters tend to be longer, so a well-designed, efficient system matters more here because it runs for more of the year.

Heat pump servicing in Annan: questions
Can you work on a heat pump in Annan that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Annan, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you get in touch.
Do you also cover Lockerbie?
Yes. We arrange heat pump servicing and repairs in Lockerbie, which is about 10 miles north-west of Annan, and across Dumfries and Galloway.
What should I check before booking a visit in Annan?
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 often should a heat pump be serviced?
Once a year is the usual recommendation for air source heat pumps, and many manufacturers require it as a warranty condition. An annual visit cleans filters and strainers, checks pressures and controls, and tests the unvented cylinder's safety devices. If you notice a drop in performance, unusual noises or repeated error codes between services, arrange a visit sooner.
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.
