Heat pump servicing for Bexleyheath homes

Aftercare matters as much as installation. For a heat pump in Bexleyheath 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 Bexleyheath whoever installed them, including monobloc and split systems. Heat pumps in Bexleyheath 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.

  • Systems where the manufacturer's warranty requires annual servicing
  • Homes where running costs have crept up or rooms feel cooler than before
  • Landlords who need dated service records for each property

What's included

  • Cleaning of the outdoor unit coil, fan area and condensate drain
  • A dated service record for your warranty and property files
  • Refrigerant circuit checks on split systems by an F-gas certified engineer
  • Glycol or antifreeze protection test where fitted
  • Magnetic filter and strainer clean, with system pressure topped up

Homes in Bexleyheath and across Greater London can book servicing at a time of year that suits them, ideally before winter.
