Heat pump servicing in Strathaven: questions

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

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

How much does a visit cost in Strathaven?

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.

Will the engineer need access indoors as well as outside?

Usually yes. The outdoor unit, the hot water cylinder, the controls and the pipework and valves indoors are all part of the visit, so allow access to each.

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.

How much does a heat pump service cost?

An annual heat pump service has a guide price of £120–£250, including VAT. Where your price sits depends on the type of system, whether it is a split system needing refrigerant checks and whether an unvented cylinder is included. Any parts or repairs found during the service are explained and priced before any work goes ahead.
