Grants and rules for heat pumps in Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland does not have a dedicated heat pump grant for homeowners at present, and the Boiler Upgrade Scheme does not apply here. Heat pumps have sometimes been funded through the Northern Ireland Sustainable Energy Programme, so it is worth checking what is open when you enquire about a home in Lisburn.
Installing heat pumps has been zero-rated for VAT in Northern Ireland since 1 May 2023, in line with the rest of the UK, until 31 March 2027. Northern Ireland has its own permitted development rules and building regulations, and we confirm what applies to your Lisburn property at survey.

Heat pumps in Lisburn: questions
What size heat pump does a Lisburn 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 Lisburn home.
Where would the outdoor unit go on a Lisburn 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 Lisburn home.
Can you service a heat pump in Lisburn that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Lisburn, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump in Lisburn?
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 Lisburn home gives a room-by-room list.
