What to know about air source heat pump installation in Newport (Gwent)
Most homes can run on a heat pump if the system is designed properly, and Newport (Gwent) is no different. The key is matching the heat pump and radiators to the home's heat loss.
Homeowners across Gwent can arrange a survey in Newport (Gwent) for a room-by-room design and a written quote before committing to anything. Installers working in Newport (Gwent) plan the order of work so heating and hot water are off for as short a time as practical.
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
- Homes replacing a gas, oil, LPG or electric heating system
- Houses with reasonable insulation, or a plan to improve it
What's included
- Radiator and pipework changes where the design needs them
- Removal of the old boiler or heaters
- Free home survey and room-by-room heat loss calculation
- Outdoor unit, hot water cylinder and weather compensation controls
- Commissioning, handover and a walk-through of the controls
Many homes in Newport (Gwent) have a side passage or rear garden with room for an outdoor unit, and the survey checks airflow and distance from neighbouring windows.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in Wales
In Wales the Boiler Upgrade Scheme gives £7,500 towards an air source heat pump (£9,000 if it replaces oil or LPG, from 21 July 2026 to 31 March 2027; £2,500 for air-to-air). The MCS-certified installer named in your quote applies to Ofgem for you, and the grant comes off your Newport (Gwent) quote.
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 in Newport (Gwent): questions
Can you service a heat pump in Newport (Gwent) that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Newport (Gwent), whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
How long does installation take in Newport (Gwent)?
Most installations take 2–4 days on site. Jobs with several radiator changes or new pipework take longer, and your quote for a Newport (Gwent) home states the expected time.
How soon can you survey a home in Newport (Gwent)?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in Gwent. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
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.
Will an air source heat pump be noisy?
Heat pumps are designed to run quietly, but where the unit sits makes a real difference. The survey looks for a position away from bedroom windows and neighbours, with clear airflow, and the installation must pass the MCS noise assessment. The fan is most noticeable on very cold days when the unit works hardest, and a little vapour during the periodic defrost is normal.
