How much does an air-to-air heat pump cost in Gloucestershire?
In Gloucestershire, guide prices run from about £1,695 to £4,095 per zone, plus VAT. A typical job (shop or office heated and cooled by 2–4 units) usually comes to £4,650–£14,050 plus VAT. Your exact price is fixed in writing once we have surveyed.
An air-to-air heat pump takes heat from the outside air and releases it indoors as warm air — the same equipment as reverse-cycle air conditioning, sized and set up for heating.
Covering Gloucestershire and nearby
We cover all of Gloucestershire, including Gloucester, Cheltenham, Stroud, Yate and Tewkesbury. Each town below has its own page with local guide prices.
Postcode districts we cover include BS10, BS34, GL2, GL8, GL14, GL20, GL55 and WR12. Buildings across Gloucestershire range from converted period offices to modern units with deep ceiling voids, so we measure each site rather than relying on a standard package.
What is included
- Heat loss and heat gain assessment
- Units selected for low-temperature heating output
- Outdoor units positioned for air flow and defrost drainage
- Controls with schedules and set-back temperatures
- Running-cost guidance against your current heating

How we work in Gloucestershire
Heat loss survey
We assess fabric, glazing and ventilation to size for winter as well as summer. For sites in Gloucestershire we confirm access and parking beforehand.
Design
Units are chosen for their heating output at low outdoor temperatures, not just their cooling rating.
Install
Outdoor units go where defrost water can drain safely and air flow is not restricted.
Set controls
Schedules and set-backs are configured so the system heats efficiently.
Things to check in Gloucestershire
Defrost water
Outdoor units shed water and ice when they defrost. They need a drained position away from walkways.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Gloucestershire are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Building fabric
Draughty or poorly insulated premises need more heating capacity; simple draught-proofing can reduce the size needed.
Neighbours and noise
Outdoor units near flats — common above shops — need careful siting so noise at neighbours' windows stays low. We choose positions and quieter units with that in mind.
Typical premises in Gloucestershire
- Retail and shops: comfortable shop floors, stockrooms and entrances, even with the door open.
- Salons and spas: comfortable salons and treatment rooms despite dryers, lamps and steam.
Two rules matter for most businesses in England: GB F-gas rules (leak checks from 5 tonnes CO2e) and the periodic energy inspection for more than 12 kW of air conditioning.
Common questions from businesses in Gloucestershire
How much does an air-to-air heat pump cost in Gloucestershire?
Guide prices in Gloucestershire run from about £1,695 to £4,095 per zone, plus VAT. A typical job (shop or office heated and cooled by 2–4 units) costs £4,650–£14,050 plus VAT. We fix the price in writing after a free survey.
Do you also cover Herefordshire, Wiltshire and Worcestershire?
Yes. Alongside Gloucestershire, we also cover Herefordshire, Wiltshire and Worcestershire. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
Do outdoor units ice up?
They frost in cold, damp weather and run short defrost cycles automatically. Drainage is planned so the water does not freeze on a path.
Does it work in freezing weather?
Modern units are designed to heat well below freezing, though output reduces as it gets colder. We size for that.
