Heat pump servicing in Greenock: what to expect
A heat pump that is serviced and set up properly keeps running efficiently for many years. Many heat pump faults trace back to settings, low pressure or a worn part rather than the heat pump itself, and those can usually be put right.
We service heat pumps in Greenock whoever installed them, including monobloc and split systems. Heat pumps in Greenock that sit near trees or hedges often need their outdoor coil cleared of leaves at the annual service.
An annual service keeps a heat pump running efficiently, catches small faults early and is often a condition of the manufacturer's warranty.
- Systems where the manufacturer's warranty requires annual servicing
- Heat pumps a year or more past installation
- Heat pumps installed by another company that need a new servicing arrangement
What's included
- Refrigerant circuit checks on split systems by an F-gas certified engineer
- Controls and error log check, with settings adjusted where needed
- A dated service record for your warranty and property files
- Magnetic filter and strainer clean, with system pressure topped up
- Cleaning of the outdoor unit coil, fan area and condensate drain
Service visits in Greenock include unvented cylinder safety checks alongside the heat pump itself.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in Scotland

Instead, homeowners in Greenock can apply to Home Energy Scotland for a grant of up to £7,500 towards a heat pump, with up to £1,500 more for eligible rural and island homes, plus an optional interest-free loan of up to £7,500.

Heat pump servicing in Greenock: questions
How often should a heat pump in Greenock 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.
Do you also cover Gourock?
Yes. We arrange heat pump servicing and repairs in Gourock, which is about 2 miles north-west of Greenock, and across Renfrewshire and Inverclyde.
How much does a visit cost in Greenock?
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.
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.
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.
