Servicing questions

Before your visit.

How often should my heat pump be serviced?

A yearly service keeps routine checks and cleaning on schedule and gives you a consistent record of system condition and operation.

Is unvented-cylinder maintenance included?

Yes. Unvented-cylinder maintenance and a detailed service worksheet are included in Essential, Standard and Advanced.

Which plan is right for most homes?

Standard is the best fit for most homes. It adds hydronic and electrical checks, an electronic leak scan and a chemical coil clean to the annual essentials.

What if the heat pump is not currently working?

A non-working system should start with a breakdown investigation rather than an annual service. Send the fault code and your postcode so we can advise on the right visit.

When is payment taken?

Once the date is agreed, payment by card secures the pre-booked service visit.
