Heat pump servicing in Surbiton: what to expect
Whoever installed your heat pump, aftercare can be arranged in Surbiton. Tell us the make and model and roughly how old it is, and we will set out what the visit involves before you book.
If a heat pump in Surbiton has not been serviced for a while, the first visit includes a full check of settings and pressures. Heat pumps in Surbiton 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
- A dated service record for your warranty and property files
- Expansion vessel, pressure relief and water quality checks
- Unvented cylinder safety checks and legionella cycle check
- Controls and error log check, with settings adjusted where needed
- Magnetic filter and strainer clean, with system pressure topped up
Service visits in Surbiton include unvented cylinder safety checks alongside the heat pump itself.

Heat pump servicing in Surbiton: questions
How often should a heat pump in Surbiton 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.

Do you also cover Kingston upon Thames?
Yes. We arrange heat pump servicing and repairs in Kingston upon Thames, which is about a mile north of Surbiton, and across Greater London.
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.
