Our coverage in Bristol runs from Bristol, Bedminster, Bishopston and Clifton and the villages around them. The approach is the same everywhere: survey, design, a written quote, then installation by installers working under our contract.

Heat pump services in Bristol
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 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.

Questions
Does my electricity network operator need to know about a heat pump?
Your installer notifies the electricity network operator about your heat pump where this is required, so you do not need to arrange it yourself. The network operator runs the cables and substations that supply your home, and the notification lets it confirm the local supply can handle the added load. We check your incoming supply and main fuse at survey and explain anything that affects the installation before work starts.
Can you service or repair a heat pump fitted by another installer?
Yes, we can usually service and repair air source heat pumps fitted by other installers. Tell us the make and model, any error code and how the system is behaving. A fault-finding visit is charged at a rate agreed before we attend, and servicing is a paid visit. We check whether a manufacturer warranty still applies before work starts, and if a unit is beyond economic repair we can quote for a replacement.
How long does an air source heat pump last?
An air source heat pump typically lasts 15–20 years, depending on the model, how it is used and how well it is maintained. Annual servicing helps it run efficiently and is often a condition of the manufacturer warranty. Parts such as pumps, sensors and fans can be replaced during its life. When an outdoor unit reaches the end of its life, a like-for-like replacement is a guide price of £6,000–£9,500, installed and including VAT.
What warranty comes with a heat pump?
A new heat pump comes with a manufacturer warranty, which passes to you, and the length depends on the make and model. Our workmanship guarantee is set out in writing in your quote. Manufacturer warranties usually depend on the system being registered and serviced as the manufacturer requires, so keep your handover pack, MCS certificate and service records together. We explain the warranty conditions for your chosen unit before you accept the quote.
