Air-to-air heat pumps in Mitcham
London's dense streets hold heat overnight, so top-floor flats and loft rooms often stay warm long after sunset. Homes in Mitcham on electric, oil or LPG heating are the ones most likely to benefit from an air-to-air heat pump.
We size every heat pump in Mitcham for a cold winter day, then check the cooling side is right for summer. We cover Mitcham as part of London, roughly 7 miles from central London. We cover CR4 and the streets around them.
Prices in Mitcham
Our London guide price for air-to-air heat pumps is £3,895–£15,095 for 2–5 rooms, VAT included. That is above the UK middle, mainly because labour and access cost more in London. What moves a quote in Mitcham up or down is mostly pipe length, how high the outdoor unit goes, and whether a new electrical circuit is needed. On our London figures, the Small home option (three or four rooms heated and cooled) is about £5,845–£9,845.
Two rooms
Living room and main bedroom on one outdoor unit.
Small home
Three or four rooms heated and cooled.
Whole home
Five or more rooms, sized to replace the existing heating.
Prices are shown before any Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant. The £2,500 air-to-air grant applies only to eligible homes in England and Wales, using an MCS-certified heat pump installed by an MCS-certified installer, who applies for the grant and deducts it from the price. We confirm eligibility, and which installer applies, before you commit.
Guide prices show VAT at 20%. HMRC treats most fixed air conditioners and air-to-air heat pumps installed in homes as energy-saving materials, zero-rated until 31 March 2027 when we supply and fit them. If your installation qualifies, your quote shows 0% VAT and a lower price. Servicing, repairs, cleaning and controls are charged at 20%.
Planning and permissions
England's rules let most houses fit an outdoor unit without a planning application, as long as the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions are met. Flats, listed buildings and roof-mounted units are treated differently.
Mitcham is in the Boiler Upgrade Scheme area, so eligible homes replacing oil, gas, LPG or electric heating may be able to get £2,500 off an air-to-air heat pump, as long as no fossil-fuel boiler stays in use. An MCS-certified installer must claim it; we confirm eligibility, and which installer applies, before you commit.
The survey
We book surveys in Mitcham at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards. On a survey in Mitcham the engineer looks at room size, glazing, the route for pipes and drains, the electrics and where the outdoor unit can sit quietly, then the written quote follows.
