Before you book: heat pump servicing in Melton Mowbray
Aftercare matters as much as installation. For a heat pump in Melton Mowbray 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.
If a heat pump in Melton Mowbray has not been serviced for a while, the first visit includes a full check of settings and pressures. We service heat pumps in Melton Mowbray whoever installed them, including monobloc and split systems.
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 a year or more past installation
- Heat pumps installed by another company that need a new servicing arrangement
What's included
- Expansion vessel, pressure relief and water quality checks
- Unvented cylinder safety checks and legionella cycle check
- Refrigerant circuit checks on split systems by an F-gas certified engineer
- Glycol or antifreeze protection test where fitted
- Magnetic filter and strainer clean, with system pressure topped up
Landlords in Melton Mowbray can arrange servicing for several properties, with a dated record for each.

Heat pump servicing in Melton Mowbray: questions
How often should a heat pump in Melton Mowbray 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.
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 work on a heat pump in Melton Mowbray that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Melton Mowbray, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you get in touch.
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.
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.
