Air Source Heat Pump Installation in Castleford

Heat pumps in Castleford

The housing here has its own character, and that character decides the design.

Castleford is former mining and glassmaking housing - tight brick terraces near the centre and large postwar estates around them, on flat ground where the Aire and Calder meet.

The terraces are solid brick and commonly have small rooms with undersized radiators, so the emitter schedule is usually the deciding factor in whether the system runs at a low flow temperature.

How an installation in Castleford runs

The same five stages every time, with the local detail handled by us.

Free home survey. We measure the property room by room and calculate the real heat loss — not an estimate from the floor area.
Design and siting. Wakefield Metropolitan District Council handles planning. Terraced plots here are narrow, so the unit position tends to be decided by the neighbour's boundary before anything else.
Fixed written quote. Emitter changes, cylinder, controls and commissioning all priced before anything is ordered.
Grant handled. Castleford is on the gas network; the rural fringe towards Ledston and Fairburn is where oil turns up.
Install and commission. Our own MCS-certified engineers fit, commission and hand over the system, and the commissioning figures go on record.

How long does an installation in Castleford take? +

Most domestic installations take two to four days on site, depending on how much radiator and cylinder work the design calls for. You will know which before you commit, because the survey and the fixed quote come first, and the dates are agreed with you rather than assigned.

Will my existing radiators still work in Castleford? +

Often, yes — but not always, and that is what the survey settles. A heat pump runs at a lower flow temperature than a boiler, so some rooms need a larger emitter to give the same heat. Any changes the design calls for are in the fixed quote, not added afterwards.
