Grants and rules for heat pumps in England
Homes in Liskeard 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.

Heat pumps in Liskeard: questions
Can you service a heat pump in Liskeard that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Liskeard, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
How long does a heat pump survey take in Liskeard?
A home survey in Liskeard 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.
How soon can you survey a home in Liskeard?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in Cornwall. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
What size heat pump does a Liskeard 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 Liskeard home.
