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 Wadebridge 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.

Heat pumps in Wadebridge: questions
Can you service a heat pump in Wadebridge that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Wadebridge, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
Where would the outdoor unit go on a Wadebridge 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 Wadebridge home.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump in Wadebridge?
Often some, not all. Heat pumps run best at lower water temperatures, so rooms with small radiators may need larger ones. The survey of your Wadebridge home gives a room-by-room list.
How long does installation take in Wadebridge?
Most installations take 2–4 days on site. Jobs with several radiator changes or new pipework take longer, and your quote for a Wadebridge home states the expected time.
