Heat pump servicing in Bonnyrigg: what to expect

Aftercare matters as much as installation. For a heat pump in Bonnyrigg the visit checks the outdoor unit, the water circuit and the controls, and the engineer explains any settings that would help the system run more efficiently.

We service heat pumps in Bonnyrigg whoever installed them, including monobloc and split systems. Homes in Bonnyrigg and across Edinburgh and the Lothians can book servicing at a time of year that suits them, ideally before winter.

Heat pump servicing in Bonnyrigg: questions

How often should a heat pump in Bonnyrigg 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 Bonnyrigg that someone else installed?

Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Bonnyrigg, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you get in touch.

Do you also cover Dalkeith?

Yes. We arrange heat pump servicing and repairs in Dalkeith, which is about 2 miles north-east of Bonnyrigg, and across Edinburgh and the Lothians.

How much does a heat pump service cost?

An annual heat pump service has a guide price of £120–£250, including VAT. Where your price sits depends on the type of system, whether it is a split system needing refrigerant checks and whether an unvented cylinder is included. Any parts or repairs found during the service are explained and priced before any work goes ahead.

Can you service a split system?

Yes. Split systems have refrigerant pipes running between the outdoor unit and an indoor unit, and checks on that refrigerant circuit must be done by an F-gas certified engineer. We arrange the service so a suitably certified engineer attends. The water side, controls and cylinder are checked in the same visit, just as on a monobloc system.
