    Our ASHP was installed August 2023. 
    Because I’m neurotic about these things I contacted the local company who have bought out our installer , regarding a service recently. 
    They came within a week, and took less that 30 minutes. 
    They signed the service schedule which we were given at install. It cost us £114. 
    I’m very pleased with that. 
    Far cheaper than the services we used to have for our oil boiler, although I appreciate this is for a new bit of kit!

    Sounds a bit quick.

    Ours takes 1.5 hours, not much chat except for a cup of tea and 2 choccy biscuits.

    From a mitsubishi certified service engineer £165.

    I wonder if they'd do mine? Not installed by them, but I'm a customer.

    I suspect that plan is for Octopus heat pump installs only. But happy to be corrected.

    You could always ask them?
