heat pump service

I've had my heat pump on now for nearly 3 weeks and its still only

Hi Sue, well it seems you made the right decision, we have been lucky so far with only 1 enquiry trying for a silly price !! I decided to send mediahol an email to see what they would offer, I am guessing that as they won't do a free offer they are quite hopeful to send enquires and so justify a fee...
