What to know about air source heat pump installation in Wood Green
In Wood Green, as anywhere in the UK, the heat pumps that perform well are the ones designed around low flow temperatures and sized from a proper heat loss calculation.
Homeowners across Greater London can arrange a survey in Wood Green for a room-by-room design and a written quote before committing to anything. In Wood Green, cylinder space is planned with you, often in an airing cupboard, utility room or garage.
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.
- Owners and landlords in England and Wales eligible for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
- Households with room for a hot water cylinder
- Homes replacing a gas, oil, LPG or electric heating system

- MCS registration and certificate, plus network operator notification
- Removal of the old boiler or heaters
- Free home survey and room-by-room heat loss calculation

- System design, unit sizing and a written quote
Installers working in Wood Green plan the order of work so heating and hot water are off for as short a time as practical.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in England
Homes in Wood Green can use the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, which takes £7,500 off the cost of an air source heat pump when it replaces fossil-fuel or electric heating. Replacing oil or LPG heating qualifies for £9,000 for installations from 21 July 2026 to 31 March 2027, and air-to-air systems for £2,500. The MCS-certified installer named in your quote applies for the grant and deducts it from the price.
Installing heat pumps is zero-rated for VAT across the UK until 31 March 2027. Since 29 May 2025, permitted development in England allows up to two air source heat pumps on a house, each up to 1.5 m³, with no blanket 1 m boundary rule — the installation must still meet the MCS planning standards, including the noise check. Listed buildings, flats and some conservation-area positions need extra consent, which we check at survey.

Short winter days in Wood Green and what they mean
On the shortest day Wood Green gets about 7 hours 49 minutes of daylight, and the winter sun reaches only around 15° above the horizon at noon. Winters this far south are milder than in most of the UK, which helps a heat pump run at low flow temperatures for much of the season.

Air source heat pump installation in Wood Green: questions
Do you cover Crouch End as well as Wood Green?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Crouch End, which is about a mile south-west of Wood Green, and across Greater London.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump in Wood Green?
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 Wood Green home gives a room-by-room list.
Can you service a heat pump in Wood Green that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Wood Green, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
Can I cancel after accepting the quote?
Nothing is ordered until you accept the written quote. Where the contract is agreed away from our premises, for example at your kitchen table, you can cancel within 14 days under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013. If you ask us to start sooner and then cancel, you pay only for work done up to that point.
How long does an air source heat pump installation take?
A typical home installation takes 2–4 days on site. It takes longer if several radiators are being replaced, pipework is being upgraded or the cylinder is going in a new location. Your quote sets out the expected programme, including when you will be without heating and hot water. Timings are typical rather than fixed, because older homes sometimes reveal surprises once floorboards are lifted.
