What to know about air source heat pump installation in New Milton
Homes around New Milton range from older terraces to newer estates, and each needs a different design. That is why we survey before we quote.
Terraced streets in New Milton often mean a compact unit position at the rear, so siting and sound levels are checked carefully. In New Milton, 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
- Owners who want one contract covering design, fitting and paperwork
- Homes replacing a gas, oil, LPG or electric heating system

- Radiator and pipework changes where the design needs them
- Free home survey and room-by-room heat loss calculation

Homeowners across Hampshire can arrange a survey in New Milton for a room-by-room design and a written quote before committing to anything.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in England
In England 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), and since 28 April 2026 a valid EPC is no longer needed. The grant is applied for by the MCS-certified installer and shown as a deduction on your New Milton quote.
There is no VAT on installing a heat pump anywhere in the UK until 31 March 2027. In England most houses can have an air source heat pump under permitted development, provided the unit meets the MCS noise and siting standards; the old 1 m boundary limit was removed on 29 May 2025. We flag listed buildings, flats and sensitive conservation-area positions at survey.

Winter daylight and heating in New Milton
On the shortest day New Milton gets about 7 hours 57 minutes of daylight, and the winter sun reaches only around 16° 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 New Milton: questions
What size heat pump does a New Milton 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 New Milton home.
Do you cover Lymington as well as New Milton?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Lymington, which is about 5 miles east of New Milton, and across Hampshire.
Can you service a heat pump in New Milton that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in New Milton, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
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.
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.
