Heat pump servicing for Gosport homes

A heat pump that is serviced and set up properly keeps running efficiently for many years. Many heat pump faults trace back to settings, low pressure or a worn part rather than the heat pump itself, and those can usually be put right.

Landlords in Gosport can arrange servicing for several properties, with a dated record for each. Service visits in Gosport include unvented cylinder safety checks alongside the heat pump itself.

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
  • Systems where the manufacturer's warranty requires annual servicing

What's included

  • Cleaning of the outdoor unit coil, fan area and condensate drain
  • Refrigerant circuit checks on split systems by an F-gas certified engineer
  • Controls and error log check, with settings adjusted where needed
  • Magnetic filter and strainer clean, with system pressure topped up
  • Expansion vessel, pressure relief and water quality checks

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

Heat pump servicing in Gosport: questions

How much does a visit cost in Gosport?

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.

Can you work on a heat pump in Gosport that someone else installed?

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

Do you also cover Portsmouth?

Yes. We arrange heat pump servicing and repairs in Portsmouth, which is about 2 miles east of Gosport, and across Hampshire.

What does a heat pump service not include?

A service covers inspection, cleaning, testing and adjustment. It does not include replacement parts, major repairs, system flushing or radiator changes, which are quoted separately if needed. If the engineer finds a fault, they explain what it is, what it would cost to fix and whether it needs doing now or can wait.

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.
