FAQs

Frequently asked questions about an air source heat pump survey

What does an air source heat pump survey check?

An air source heat pump survey checks unit siting, access, sound inputs, plant context, electrics, and the heat loss inputs that affect pricing and design.

Is an air source heat pump survey the same as an ASHP survey?

On real jobs, yes: ASHP means air source heat pump. This page is the checklist and scope guide, while the main ASHP survey page covers pricing, delivery detail, and sample-report proof.

When is the heat pump survey overview better?

The heat pump survey overview is better when the job could still be ASHP or GSHP, or when the system type has not been confirmed.

What happens after the survey is complete?

The report is issued on completion in the standard flow. EPC follows by next morning where it is in scope, and heat loss work follows next day where booked.

Does an air source heat pump survey include MCS 020(a) noise inputs?

Yes. On ASHP jobs, the survey captures the siting, layout, and sound-related inputs needed for the MCS 020(a) route. Use the ASHP survey page if you need the commercial pricing and delivery route around that evidence.
