Heat pump servicing for Faversham homes
Whoever installed your heat pump, aftercare can be arranged in Faversham. 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 Faversham has not been serviced for a while, the first visit includes a full check of settings and pressures. Service visits in Faversham 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.
- Homes where running costs have crept up or rooms feel cooler than before
- Heat pumps installed by another company that need a new servicing arrangement
- Landlords who need dated service records for each property
What's included
- Unvented cylinder safety checks and legionella cycle check
- Magnetic filter and strainer clean, with system pressure topped up
- A dated service record for your warranty and property files
- Cleaning of the outdoor unit coil, fan area and condensate drain
- Refrigerant circuit checks on split systems by an F-gas certified engineer
We service heat pumps in Faversham whoever installed them, including monobloc and split systems.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in England
In England the Boiler Upgrade Scheme gives £7,500 towards an air source heat pump (£9,000 if it replaces oil or LPG, from 21 July 2026 to 31 March 2027), and since 28 April 2026 a valid EPC is no longer needed. The grant is applied for by the MCS-certified installer and shown as a deduction on your Faversham quote.

Short winter days in Faversham and what they mean

Heat pump servicing in Faversham: questions
Do you also cover Whitstable?
Yes. We arrange heat pump servicing and repairs in Whitstable, which is about 7 miles north-east of Faversham, and across Kent.
What should I check before booking a visit in Faversham?
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 much does a visit cost in Faversham?
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.
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.
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.
