Air source heat pump installation for Wymondham homes
Homes around Wymondham range from older terraces to newer estates, and each needs a different design. That is why we survey before we quote.
Terraced streets in Wymondham often mean a compact unit position at the rear, so siting and sound levels are checked carefully. In Wymondham, 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
- Homes replacing a gas, oil, LPG or electric heating system
- Households with room for a hot water cylinder
What's included
- Removal of the old boiler or heaters
- System design, unit sizing and a written quote
- Commissioning, handover and a walk-through of the controls
- Outdoor unit, hot water cylinder and weather compensation controls
- Radiator and pipework changes where the design needs them
Homeowners across Norfolk can arrange a survey in Wymondham 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 Wymondham 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.

Short winter days in Wymondham and what they mean
Wymondham has about 7 hours 38 minutes of daylight at midwinter and 16 hours 51 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.

Air source heat pump installation in Wymondham: questions
How long does installation take in Wymondham?
Most installations take 2–4 days on site. Jobs with several radiator changes or new pipework take longer, and your quote for a Wymondham home states the expected time.
Do you cover Norwich as well as Wymondham?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Norwich, which is about 9 miles north-east of Wymondham, and across Norfolk.
Where would the outdoor unit go on a Wymondham house?
Usually at the side or rear, on a level base with space around it for airflow and servicing, away from bedroom windows where possible. The surveyor checks positions at your Wymondham home.
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.
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.
