Grants and rules for heat pumps in Scotland
In Scotland, heat pump funding comes through Home Energy Scotland rather than the Boiler Upgrade Scheme: a grant of up to £7,500 (up to £1,500 extra for eligible rural and island homes) and an optional interest-free loan of up to £7,500. For a Campbeltown home, apply and receive the written offer before the installation date is fixed.
Installing heat pumps is zero-rated for VAT across the UK until 31 March 2027. Scotland has its own permitted development rules for air source heat pumps and its own building standards, so we confirm what applies to your Campbeltown property at survey.

Short winter days in Campbeltown and what they mean

Heat pumps in Campbeltown: questions
How long does a heat pump survey take in Campbeltown?
A home survey in Campbeltown usually takes one to two hours. The surveyor measures every heated room, checks windows, walls and radiators, and looks at where the outdoor unit and cylinder can go.
What size heat pump does a Campbeltown 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 Campbeltown home.
Where would the outdoor unit go on a Campbeltown 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 Campbeltown home.
Can you service a heat pump in Campbeltown that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Campbeltown, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
