Heat pump servicing for Wallingford homes
Whoever installed your heat pump, aftercare can be arranged in Wallingford. Tell us the make and model and roughly how old it is, and we will set out what the visit involves before you book.
Homes in Wallingford and across Oxfordshire can book servicing at a time of year that suits them, ideally before winter. Landlords in Wallingford can arrange servicing for several properties, with a dated record for each.
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
- Landlords who need dated service records for each property
- Heat pumps installed by another company that need a new servicing arrangement
What's included
- Glycol or antifreeze protection test where fitted
- Magnetic filter and strainer clean, with system pressure topped up
- Cleaning of the outdoor unit coil, fan area and condensate drain
- Expansion vessel, pressure relief and water quality checks
- Controls and error log check, with settings adjusted where needed
Service visits in Wallingford include unvented cylinder safety checks alongside the heat pump itself.

Heat pump servicing in Wallingford: questions
How often should a heat pump in Wallingford 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.
How much does a visit cost in Wallingford?
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 you also cover Didcot?
Yes. We arrange heat pump servicing and repairs in Didcot, which is about 5 miles west of Wallingford, and across Oxfordshire.
Is servicing needed to keep my warranty valid?
Often, yes. Many manufacturer warranties require an annual service with a dated record, and some extended warranties require an approved installer. Manufacturer warranties pass to you, and the length depends on the make and model. Check your warranty documents, and keep every service record safe with your MCS certificate and handover pack.
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.
