Before you book: heat pump servicing in Neath
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.
Heat pumps in Neath that sit near trees or hedges often need their outdoor coil cleared of leaves at the annual service. If a heat pump in Neath 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
- Landlords who need dated service records for each property
- Heat pumps installed by another company that need a new servicing arrangement
What's included
- Unvented cylinder safety checks and legionella cycle check
- Controls and error log check, with settings adjusted where needed
- Refrigerant circuit checks on split systems by an F-gas certified engineer
- Magnetic filter and strainer clean, with system pressure topped up
- Cleaning of the outdoor unit coil, fan area and condensate drain
Landlords in Neath can arrange servicing for several properties, with a dated record for each.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in Wales

Heat pump servicing in Neath: questions
Do you also cover Briton Ferry?
Yes. We arrange heat pump servicing and repairs in Briton Ferry, which is about 2 miles south of Neath, and across West Glamorgan.
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.
What should I check before booking a visit in Neath?
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.
