Before you book: heat pump servicing in Minehead
Whoever installed your heat pump, aftercare can be arranged in Minehead. Tell us the make and model and roughly how old it is, and we will set out what the visit involves before you book.
Service visits in Minehead include unvented cylinder safety checks alongside the heat pump itself. Homes in Minehead and across Somerset can book servicing at a time of year that suits them, ideally before winter.
An annual service keeps a heat pump running efficiently, catches small faults early and is often a condition of the manufacturer's warranty.
- Landlords who need dated service records for each property
- Heat pumps installed by another company that need a new servicing arrangement
- Homes where running costs have crept up or rooms feel cooler than before
What's included
- A dated service record for your warranty and property files
- Expansion vessel, pressure relief and water quality checks
- Magnetic filter and strainer clean, with system pressure topped up
- Controls and error log check, with settings adjusted where needed
- Unvented cylinder safety checks and legionella cycle check
If a heat pump in Minehead has not been serviced for a while, the first visit includes a full check of settings and pressures.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in England
In England the Boiler Upgrade Scheme gives £7,500 towards an air source heat pump (£9,000 if it replaces oil or LPG, from 21 July 2026 to 31 March 2027), and since 28 April 2026 a valid EPC is no longer needed. The grant is applied for by the MCS-certified installer and shown as a deduction on your Minehead quote.

Heat pump servicing in Minehead: questions
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 Minehead that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Minehead, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you get in touch.
Do you also cover Burnham-on-Sea?
Yes. We arrange heat pump servicing and repairs in Burnham-on-Sea, which is about 21 miles east of Minehead, and across Somerset.
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.
