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 Camborne 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.

How long is the heating season in Camborne?
Camborne sees roughly 8 hours 02 minutes of daylight in late December against 16 hours 24 minutes in June. Milder southern winters suit heat pumps well, though the system is still sized for a cold snap rather than an average day.
Heat pumps in Camborne: questions
Do you cover Redruth as well as Camborne?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Redruth, which is about 4 miles north-east of Camborne, and across Cornwall.
How long does installation take in Camborne?
Most installations take 2–4 days on site. Jobs with several radiator changes or new pipework take longer, and your quote for a Camborne home states the expected time.
Can you service a heat pump in Camborne that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Camborne, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
What size heat pump does a Camborne 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 Camborne home.
