What to know about heat pump servicing in Westerham
Aftercare matters as much as installation. For a heat pump in Westerham 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 Westerham whoever installed them, including monobloc and split systems. Service visits in Westerham 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
- Systems where the manufacturer's warranty requires annual servicing
- Landlords who need dated service records for each property
What's included

Heat pump servicing in Westerham: questions
How often should a heat pump in Westerham 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 Westerham that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Westerham, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you get in touch.
Do you also cover Sevenoaks?
Yes. We arrange heat pump servicing and repairs in Sevenoaks, which is about 5 miles east of Westerham, and across Kent.
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.
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.
