Heat pump servicing in Amesbury: 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 Amesbury whoever installed them, including monobloc and split systems. Landlords in Amesbury 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.

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

What's included

  • Unvented cylinder safety checks and legionella cycle check
  • Cleaning of the outdoor unit coil, fan area and condensate drain
  • Expansion vessel, pressure relief and water quality checks
  • Glycol or antifreeze protection test where fitted
  • Controls and error log check, with settings adjusted where needed

Homes in Amesbury and across Wiltshire can book servicing at a time of year that suits them, ideally before winter.

Heat pump servicing in Amesbury: 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.

What should I check before booking a visit in Amesbury?

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.

How much does a visit cost in Amesbury?

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 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.

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.
