Air Source Heat Pump Service Costs: What’s Included

Heat pumps are quickly becoming one of the most popular ways to heat homes in the UK. With homeowners eager to lower energy bills and reduce their carbon emissions, many are making the switch to a heat pump.

But like any home heating system, your heat pump needs regular servicing to stay efficient, reliable, and under warranty. The good news is that heat pump servicing with Egensys is straightforward, affordable, and reliable. Let’s break it down clearly and practically.

Why Maintenance is Needed for Heat Pumps

Installing a heat pump is just the first step; keeping your system in peak condition ensures you continue to see the savings, performance, and reliability you expect with renewables.

Your heat pump should be serviced once a year. An annual service keeps your system working efficiently, prevents small issues from becoming costly repairs, and helps maintain your warranty. It provides:

Fewer Breakdowns – Routine maintenance reduces the chances of sudden faults that lead to costly repairs.

Better Performance – Regular checks keep your system running at the level it should, without drops in output.

Lower Running Costs – Servicing helps stop the system from working harder than needed, which keeps your bills steady.

Longer Lifespan – Small issues get found early, so your heat pump lasts longer.

If your system feels weaker, sounds louder, or your bills have crept up, this could signal it may be time for a service. Even when everything seems fine, a routine check keeps things running well and helps your heat pump last longer. At Egensys, we offer tailored servicing and maintenance packages for your air source heat pump system.

What’s Included in a Heat Pump Service?

Most services take around one to two hours, depending on the system size and condition. Booking a service with us is quick; we turn up on time, do the job properly and leave you with a system you can rely on year after year.

Plus, our engineers are experienced across a wide range of heat pump models and manufacturers. Even if we didn’t install your system, give us a ring, and our engineers most likely can service your heat pump as well.

Air Source Heat Pump Service Costs

An annual heat pump service in the UK typically costs between £150 and £300. This cost comes down to a few different factors. Of course, you’re paying for the labour, the expertise, and the actual servicing of the heat pump itself.

Conducting a service requires the technician to be MCS-accredited, so their experience is pretty valuable and means they will service your heat pump more effectively. This accreditation is particularly important if you purchased your heat pump with the help of the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, as MCS-certified work may be required to keep your grant documentation valid.

At Egensys, we provide heat pump services from £180. This includes one-off services, or you can choose to set up an annual maintenance plan to stay on top of your system’s care without the hassle of remembering each year. We also offer monthly service payment plans to help spread the cost of the service.
