Why choose a heat pump?

Lower bills, lower carbon, longer lifespan than a boiler.

Lower Running Costs

Heat pumps are 300% efficient — for every 1kW of electricity, you get 3kW of heat. Typical savings of £500–£1,300/year vs gas, oil, or LPG.

£7,500 Grant Available

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme covers £7,500 of your installation cost. We handle the entire application — you just get the confirmation email.

20+ Year Lifespan

Heat pumps last over 20 years — nearly double a gas boiler. Less maintenance, no annual gas safety checks, fewer breakdowns.

Zero Carbon Heating

Heat pumps produce no on-site emissions. Pair with solar panels for virtually free, zero-carbon heating.

Future-Proof

The gas boiler ban on new builds starts 2025. Heat pumps are the future of home heating — get ahead of the curve.

0% VAT

Heat pump installations are VAT-free until 2027. That's a saving of up to £2,000 on a typical installation.

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers to the most common heat pump questions.

Can I replace my oil boiler with a heat pump?
Yes — and oil-heated homes are the strongest case for switching. Oil is one of the most expensive heating fuels in the UK, and a heat pump typically saves £800–£1,300 per year. We handle oil tank decommissioning as part of the project, and the £7,500 BUS grant makes the upfront cost very manageable.
Will a heat pump work in a poorly insulated rural cottage?
Yes, with proper design. We carry out detailed heat loss calculations and size the heat pump to match your home's actual heating demand. Some older rural properties benefit from insulation improvements first, but many work well with a heat pump straight away — particularly if you're willing to accept slightly larger radiators in some rooms.
What happens to my oil tank?
We arrange oil tank decommissioning as part of your heat pump installation. The tank is drained, cleaned, and either removed or made safe in situ. This is included in our project management.
Do I have enough space for a heat pump?
Rural properties almost always have more than enough space. The unit needs a concrete base roughly 1m x 1m with clear airflow. Most rural homes have large gardens or driveways that are perfect.
