Why act now

Why More Homeowners Are Installing Heat Pumps Now

Heat pumps are no longer just an alternative. The market is moving towards low-carbon heating, and homeowners who act early are in the strongest position.

Moving away from gas, oil or LPG?

If you are still relying on gas, oil or LPG, now is the time to look at an air source heat pump. New housing standards are pushing heating in one clear direction, and that gives homeowners a chance to move early rather than wait until demand rises and choices become more limited.

A real financial advantage to acting now

There is also a financial advantage to acting now. With the up to £9,000 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant currently available, this is a real opportunity to reduce the upfront cost of switching to a more efficient heating system. Leave it too long, and you risk higher competition for installation slots, less flexibility, and missing the best time to make the move.

More than just an upgrade

For many households, this is not just about upgrading heating. It is about securing grant support while it is available, reducing dependence on older systems, and making a smarter long-term decision for the home.

What Our Customers Say

Common questions

FAQs

Do I need a new EPC to apply for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant?

Not necessarily. If you have a valid EPC with no outstanding recommendations for loft or cavity wall insulation, your existing certificate is acceptable for the BUS application. If insulation recommendations are listed, these need to be addressed first. We check your EPC during your free eligibility call.

Yes. Modern air source heat pumps are designed to operate efficiently at outdoor temperatures as low as -20°C. Average winter temperatures across our service area – from Shropshire and Cheshire to Gwynedd and Powys – rarely fall below -5°C. The system extracts heat from outdoor air even at sub-zero temperatures, maintaining consistent output all year round.

In many cases, yes. Air source heat pumps operate at a lower flow temperature than gas or oil boilers, which means existing radiators often remain suitable. Where upgrades are needed, we confirm this during your free survey and include any costs in your fixed-price quote.

A well-maintained system typically lasts 20 to 25 years – significantly longer than the 10 to 15 years expected from a typical gas or oil boiler. Annual servicing keeps the system running efficiently and protects your manufacturer warranty.

Do I need planning permission for an air source heat pump?

In most cases, no. Air source heat pump installations are permitted development in England and Wales, subject to conditions on unit size, noise output and placement from property boundaries. Rules can vary slightly between planning authorities – particularly in conservation areas or listed buildings. Our surveyors confirm your permitted development status during the free home assessment, whether you are in Shropshire, Cheshire, North Wales or elsewhere in our coverage area.

Yes. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme also provides a grant for ground source heat pump installations. Ground source systems are particularly suited to larger rural properties with available land. Speak to our team to find out which system best suits your property.
