What Is a Heat Pump & Why Consider One

Heat pumps don’t burn fuel — they extract heat from outside air or the ground. That means:

  • Air source heat pumps (ASHPs) are common in UK homes, good even in cold weather.

  • Ground source heat pumps (GSHPs) use underground loops or boreholes and are highly efficient, especially for larger properties or rural settings.

Switching from a gas, electric, oil, or LPG boiler can cut your carbon footprint dramatically — by 1,300-2,900 kg CO₂/year for many homes.

Cost, Running Costs & What You Can Expect

  • Installation cost: Before grants, typical air source systems cost between £7,000-£14,000, ground source more depending on land and groundworks. After the £7,500 grant, many UK homeowners pay significantly less.

  • Running costs: UK homes spend around £800-£1,700/year to run an ASHP, depending on size, insulation, and tariff. Compared to oil or LPG, that’s often a big saving. GSHPs tend to perform even better.

FAQs

Do I qualify for the £7,500 grant?

Most homeowners in England & Wales installing ASHP or GSHP are eligible under the Boiler Upgrade Scheme. The installer you choose applies on your behalf. We’ll let you know after your quick postcode check.

Will I need new radiators or pipework?

Often, to reach best performance you’ll need upgrades. Quotes from multiple installers will include those costs, plus options with minimal changes.

Are heat pumps noisy?

Modern air source units comply with MCS-020 noise limits. Installers will place them correctly to reduce noise and meet regulations.

How much can I save vs a gas or oil boiler?

Savings depend on how well your home is insulated, your current heating system, and your electricity tariff. Many off-gas homes can save hundreds/year. We’ll show estimate savings in your quote.

How soon can installation happen?

Once you compare quotes and select an installer, many ASHP installs complete in weeks (GSHP may take longer). Local installer availability and grant approval timeline are key.
