Before you book: heat pump servicing in Gourock

Whoever installed your heat pump, aftercare can be arranged in Gourock. Tell us the make and model and roughly how old it is, and we will set out what the visit involves before you book.

We service heat pumps in Gourock whoever installed them, including monobloc and split systems. If a heat pump in Gourock has not been serviced for a while, the first visit includes a full check of settings and pressures.

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 a year or more past installation
  • Heat pumps installed by another company that need a new servicing arrangement
  • Systems where the manufacturer's warranty requires annual servicing

What's included

  • Cleaning of the outdoor unit coil, fan area and condensate drain
  • Magnetic filter and strainer clean, with system pressure topped up
  • Refrigerant circuit checks on split systems by an F-gas certified engineer
  • Unvented cylinder safety checks and legionella cycle check
  • Controls and error log check, with settings adjusted where needed

Service visits in Gourock include unvented cylinder safety checks alongside the heat pump itself.

Heat pump servicing in Gourock: questions

How much does a visit cost in Gourock?

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 Greenock?

Yes. We arrange heat pump servicing and repairs in Greenock, which is about 2 miles south-east of Gourock, and across Renfrewshire and Inverclyde.

What should I check before booking a visit in Gourock?

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.

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.

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.
