It is essential to keep your service schedule up-to-date in order to maintain manufacturer warranties, optimise the efficiency of the units and to identify possible faults in their early stages before the repair costs increase.
Egensys can provide annual services and ongoing maintenance as a “pay as you go” arrangement or we can, subject to mutual agreement, offer a range of service plans. In addition to an “Annual Service Plan”, we offer a “Comprehensive Service and Maintenance Plan” to provide peace of mind while spreading the costs of ongoing servicing and repairs.
Our standard plans cater to all single-unit monobloc Mitsubishi, Samsung, Vaillant heat pumps located within a 50-mile radius of our head office (Worksop, S81 7BE). If you own a different brand or a cascade system, or if you reside outside this radius, please reach out for further information and guidance.
This plan ensures you will not miss your annual service and allows you to distribute the payment over the year.
Included in the Annual Service Plan:
A reminder via call or email for your upcoming service. Annual service of the heat pump and cylinder system at a mutually agreed time, which includes checks on:
• Internal Heat Pump clean and integrity check of Fans, Heat Exchanger, Compressor, Casing and Electronic Components.
• External clean using manufacturer recommended antibacterial solution.
• Inspection and clean of in-line strainer.
• Inspection and clean of in-line magnetic filter.
• Performance and integrity check of circulation pumps, 2/3 port valves, lever valves and flow gauges.
• Glycol condition and concentration analysis.

• Servicing of heat distribution e.g. Radiators, Underfloor Heating System.
This plan offers enhanced coverage, including a year-round call-out service for your maintenance needs (see the section on maintenance calls below).
To be eligible for this plan the heat pump and cylinder will need to be protected by a manufacturer's warranty, to cover major component replacements, these warranties do not include labour or minor parts and consumables. This plan fills that gap, covering labour, minor parts, and consumables.
Qualifying survey – If the heat pump was not installed by Egensys, or if we have not serviced it for more than 18 months, we will carry out an initial survey to check that the system is in good working order before the start of the Comprehensive Maintenance Plan. If the system needs any repair work to qualify for the Egensys Comprehensive Maintenance Plan, we will provide a quote for such repairs.
The initial survey will be charged at £120.
Included in the Comprehensive Maintenance Plan:
• An annual service, as detailed above;
• Fault identification, through telephone discussion, video call or on-site visit.
• Liaison, when required, with the heat pump or cylinder manufacturer technical support to identify a solution to the fault.
• All manufacturer warranty covered replacement parts and labour for the heat pump and cylinder.
• Replacement of Heat Pump and cylinder sundry items, eg Expansion Vessels, Circulation Pumps, Valves, Filters to the total parts value of £500 per twelve month contract period (if the repair requires parts with a combined value of more than £500 we will provide a quote before carrying out the repair work);
Not included in the Comprehensive Maintenance Plan:
• Damage caused by improper use or accidental damage;
• Damage caused by vandalism;
• Damage caused by maintenance or repairs carried out by another person or company;
• Repairs to the heating distribution system, eg Radiators, Underfloor Heating Systems, TRV’s, distribution pipework, third party controls.

• Adding glycol antifreeze to a system.
• Recharging systems with refrigerant.
Maintenance Calls – In addition to the yearly subscription, we charge a call-out fee of £30 per site visit, to be paid in advance. In the interest of getting your system running as quickly as possible following a problem, we will first aim to solve the problem over the email, phone and video call, before sending out a member of our technical team.
If you call the maintenance telephone out of our normal office hours and leave a message, we will get back to you within one working day of your call to try to diagnose and solve the problem and, if a visit is required, we will make every effort to get someone out to you within three working days of the final phone consultation.

Period of Agreement – Your Agreement will run for a minimum period of twelve months from the date that you make the first payment or renew your Plan.
Heat pumps covered by the Agreement – The Agreement will only cover the person and the heat pump named in the Agreement. Nobody other than the owner(s) of the named heat pump can benefit from this Agreement.
Service coverage – Egensys is based in Worksop (S81 7BE) and we can offer the Plans to all customers within a 50 mile (80km) radius. If your property falls outside this radius we will assess it on a case-by-case basis.
Access – Upon arranging a time and date for a service or maintenance visit, it is your responsibility to provide access to the heat pump, cylinder and any other parts of the system at the time agreed between you and us. If we are not able to gain access at the agreed time, we reserve the right to charge for the time, including travel time.
During extreme weather events, it may be impossible for us to reach properties, particularly in rural locations. In such circumstances we will inform you of our inability to visit and will arrange an alternative time and date once the conditions allow more reasonable access.
Spare parts – Our service and maintenance team carry common spare parts. We also try to diagnose the issue over the telephone prior to the visit, so we can obtain any additional parts that we think are required. However, if the fault requires a spare part that we do not have available, we will advise you of the time it will take to obtain the new part and will arrange another time to come and fit the part. In this circumstance you will not be charged the call-out fee for the second visit.
If our suppliers fail to deliver spare parts on the agreed date, we will keep you informed of the revised delivery date and will organise another suitable time to fit the part.
Consequential loss – This cover does not include consequential loss or damage to property caused by the system breaking down (such as increased running costs, cost of running alternative heating systems, water damage to property, etc.).
We will refit any easily removeable parts of cupboards, panels or framework that we might need to remove to gain access to the heat pump, but we are not responsible for any redecoration or repairs that may be required as a result of such alterations.
Third party repairs – This Plan does not cover repairs undertaken by third parties. We will not reimburse you of any costs you have incurred by appointing any other company or person to repair the heat pump. We will not make any cash payments in lieu of annual service, repairs or replacement parts.
