Before you book: air source heat pump installation in Mold
Every property in Mold is different, so the design starts from measurements rather than a rule of thumb. That keeps the system the right size and the running costs predictable.
In Mold, cylinder space is planned with you, often in an airing cupboard, utility room or garage. Many homes in Mold have a side passage or rear garden with room for an outdoor unit, and the survey checks airflow and distance from neighbouring windows.
We survey your home, design a heat pump system around its real heat loss, and manage the installation from the first visit to the MCS certificate.
- Homes replacing a gas, oil, LPG or electric heating system
- Owners who want one contract covering design, fitting and paperwork
- Houses with reasonable insulation, or a plan to improve it
What's included
- Commissioning, handover and a walk-through of the controls
- MCS registration and certificate, plus network operator notification
- Removal of the old boiler or heaters
- Boiler Upgrade Scheme application in England and Wales where eligible
- Free home survey and room-by-room heat loss calculation
Terraced streets in Mold often mean a compact unit position at the rear, so siting and sound levels are checked carefully.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in Wales
Homes in Mold can use the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, which applies in Wales as well as England: £7,500 towards an air source heat pump, or £9,000 when it replaces oil or LPG heating for installations from 21 July 2026 to 31 March 2027. The MCS-certified installer named in your quote applies and deducts the grant.
There is no VAT on installing a heat pump anywhere in the UK, Wales included, until 31 March 2027. Planning rules for heat pumps in Wales are set by the Welsh Government and differ from England's, so the surveyor checks the unit position against them.
Air source heat pump installation prices in Mold
These are guide prices for Clwyd, installed and including VAT. Your final price is fixed in a written quote after the survey and depends on the heat loss of the house, the radiators that need changing and where the unit goes.

|---|---|---|---|
| 1–2 bedroom flat or small terrace | 4–5 kW | £9,500–£12,500 | £2,000–£5,000 |

Installed, inc VAT: unit, cylinder, controls, minor pipework and commissioning.
How long is the heating season in Mold?
Mold has about 7 hours 32 minutes of daylight at midwinter and 16 hours 58 minutes at midsummer. That swing matters if you pair a heat pump with solar panels: summer generation can cover much of the hot water, winter generation far less.
The steps for air source heat pump installation in Mold
- Tell us about your home: postcode, property type and current heating.
- We book a survey in Mold; the surveyor measures rooms, windows and radiators and looks at cylinder space.
- The design and quote arrive in writing, including radiator changes and the outdoor unit position.
- On installation days the old system is removed and the new one fitted and filled.
- We commission the heat pump, show you the controls and register the installation.
Air source heat pump installation in Mold: questions
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump in Mold?
Often some, not all. Heat pumps run best at lower water temperatures, so rooms with small radiators may need larger ones. The survey of your Mold home gives a room-by-room list.
What size heat pump does a Mold home need?
It depends on the heat loss, not the postcode. As a rough guide, a 3 bedroom semi often needs 6–9 kW, but the room-by-room survey sets the actual size for your Mold home.
Do you cover Buckley as well as Mold?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Buckley, which is about 2 miles east of Mold, and across Clwyd.
What grants can I get for a heat pump?
It depends on where you live. In England and Wales the Boiler Upgrade Scheme gives £7,500 towards an air-to-water heat pump, which the installer claims and deducts from your quote. In Scotland, Home Energy Scotland offers a grant of up to £7,500, with up to £1,500 more for eligible rural and island homes, but you need a written funding offer before work starts. Northern Ireland has no dedicated homeowner heat pump grant at present.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump?
Not always; many homes keep most of their radiators and change only a few. Because a heat pump runs at a lower water temperature than a boiler, each radiator gives out less heat, so the survey checks every room against its heat loss. Rooms where the existing radiator falls short get a larger one, with a guide price of £250–£450 each, installed and including VAT.
