Air source heat pump installation for Fleet homes
In Fleet, 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.
In Fleet, cylinder space is planned with you, often in an airing cupboard, utility room or garage. For older properties in Fleet, the heat loss calculation looks closely at solid walls, single glazing and draughts before any unit is sized.
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.
- Houses with reasonable insulation, or a plan to improve it
- Owners and landlords in England and Wales eligible for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
- Homes replacing a gas, oil, LPG or electric heating system
What's included
- Radiator and pipework changes where the design needs them
- Free home survey and room-by-room heat loss calculation
- Boiler Upgrade Scheme application in England and Wales where eligible
- Removal of the old boiler or heaters
- Outdoor unit, hot water cylinder and weather compensation controls
Installers working in Fleet 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 Fleet 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.
Air source heat pump installation prices in Fleet
The ranges below are typical installed prices for homes in Hampshire, including VAT. A survey sets the exact figure, because two similar-looking houses in Fleet can need quite different radiators and pipework.

Designing for Fleet's winters
On the shortest day Fleet gets about 7 hours 52 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 Fleet: questions
What size heat pump does a Fleet 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 Fleet home.
How soon can you survey a home in Fleet?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in Hampshire. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
Do you cover Farnborough as well as Fleet?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Farnborough, which is about 3 miles east of Fleet, and across Hampshire.
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.
