Before you book: air-to-air heat pumps in Wallasey
Every property in Wallasey is different, so the design starts from measurements rather than a rule of thumb. That keeps the system the right size and the running costs predictable.
For terraced homes in Wallasey, the outdoor unit can often sit in a rear yard with tidy pipe runs to each room. A survey in Wallasey covers indoor unit positions, pipe routes and hot water for homes across Merseyside.
An air-to-air heat pump warms rooms directly with air, and can cool them in summer, but it does not heat your hot water.
- Extensions, conservatories and garden rooms
- Homes where fitting radiators and pipework would be very disruptive
- Households that already have, or will add, a separate source of hot water
What's included
- Free survey covering rooms to heat, unit positions and hot water options
- Electrical supply and controls set up for each room
- Condensate drains and neat external pipe covers
- Commissioning, MCS certificate and the air-to-air grant claim in England and Wales where eligible
- Outdoor unit and indoor units for each room
Flats in Wallasey on storage or panel heaters can often switch to air-to-air without fitting radiators or pipework.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in England
Homes in Wallasey 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 Wallasey and what they mean
On the shortest day Wallasey gets only about 7 hours 29 minutes of daylight and the noon sun sits around 13° above the horizon. Northern winters tend to be longer, so a well-designed, efficient system matters more here because it runs for more of the year.

Air-to-air heat pumps in Wallasey: questions
Can you service a heat pump in Wallasey that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Wallasey, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
How soon can you survey a home in Wallasey?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in Merseyside. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
Do you cover Birkenhead as well as Wallasey?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Birkenhead, which is about 3 miles south-east of Wallasey, and across Merseyside.
Is there a grant for air-to-air heat pumps?
In England and Wales, yes: the Boiler Upgrade Scheme includes a grant of £2,500 for air-to-air heat pumps in homes, from 28 April 2026. The MCS-certified installer applies to Ofgem and deducts it from your quote, subject to the scheme's conditions. The scheme does not cover Scotland or Northern Ireland; in Scotland, Home Energy Scotland has its own rules.
Can an air-to-air heat pump heat my water?
No. An air-to-air heat pump heats and cools the air in rooms but does not produce hot water. You need a separate source, such as an existing immersion cylinder, a hot water heat pump or an electric water heater. If you want one system for heating and hot water, an air-to-water heat pump with a cylinder is the alternative.
