 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently moved in to an old property with electric heaters and no gas supply to the house, I reached out to Transcrew to enquire about an Air source heat pump and spoke with Joe and he was very knowledgable and helped me come to the decision to get the ashp fitted. After speaking with Joe on a Friday, we made the decision to go with it and he had a team at my house that next Monday morning starting installation. The team that fitted the ashp and all new pipe work and radiators were fantastic. Graham, Weston and Ben are all very knowledgeable about the system, great tradesmen and were very happy to answer any questions and thoroughly explain everything that we asked. After installation, there was a couple of problems with the heat pump itself (no fault of Transcrew or the installers), but the team identified the issues and resolved them straight away. We couldn’t be happier with the service and I would recommend these guys to anybody who is looking to install an ashp to their home. A very good company, from a very happy customer!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Transcrew installed our solar panels recently and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. The team were professional, punctual, and explained everything clearly before and during the installation. The work was completed efficiently and the system was set up neatly with minimal disruption. We're really pleased with the result and would definitely recommend Transcrew to anyone considering solar panels.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our heat pump installation was okay but not the smoothest. Everything is working, time it took was fine and price wise fair. But the communication was problematic. The installation was happening while we were away and we got back to a cold house without getting any notice about that beforehand. They also did not tell us that they couldn't do the placement of hot water tank on one side of a cabinet -which we agreed on- but took up all the space. We counted on using half of the cabinet and are still struggling to arrange furniture in that room due to that. One more thing was a mis-wiring of a Homely smart control. It was easy to change but took a couple of days to figure it out and we did it ourselves in the end to not delay having everything set up any longer. Overall, an honest, good company but communication is not their strength.

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) is available for residential and small non-domestic properties in England and Wales that meet certain criteria. To qualify, properties need a valid Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) and must be replacing an existing fossil fuel heating system, such as gas or oil. At Transcrew, our certified installers simplify the process by handling the entire application on your behalf. All we need is your consent to apply, and our team will manage the paperwork to get you approved for the grant.

Applying for the BUS Scheme grant is simple with Transcrew. After you confirm your interest, our team of MCS-certified installers will handle the entire application process on your behalf. There's no need to navigate complicated paperwork — just provide your consent, and we'll take care of the rest. Once the grant is approved, we'll arrange your installation so you can enjoy an energy-efficient heating system without hassle.

Air source heat pumps harness solar energy stored in the air, even in colder temperatures, and transfer it into your home's heating system. This renewable energy source is an efficient way to heat your home, reducing both energy consumption and environmental impact. With Transcrew's professional installation, your heat pump will be set up to maximise energy savings and operate at optimal efficiency, helping you reduce your energy bills while supporting sustainable living.

Air source heat pumps are highly adaptable and can work in most homes. However, their efficiency is enhanced in properties with good insulation and heating systems designed for low-temperature operation, like underfloor heating or specially designed radiators. Transcrew offers a free assessment to determine the best heating solution for your property. We'll ensure that your home meets the eligibility criteria for the BUS Scheme, maximising your energy savings and comfort.

Air source heat pumps are low-maintenance compared to traditional heating systems. Basic maintenance includes ensuring the outdoor unit is clear of debris like leaves, and cleaning or replacing air filters periodically to maintain optimal performance. Transcrew recommends an annual service check by a qualified technician to keep your heat pump running efficiently and to extend its lifespan. We provide a comprehensive maintenance service to keep your system in top condition, ensuring it continues to provide eco-friendly heating for years to come.
