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 Hull 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 pump guide prices in Hull
The ranges below are typical installed prices for homes in the East Riding of Yorkshire, including VAT. A survey sets the exact figure, because two similar-looking houses in Hull can need quite different radiators and pipework.

Short winter days in Hull and what they mean
On the shortest day Hull gets only about 7 hours 25 minutes of daylight and the noon sun sits around 13° above the horizon. Northern winters tend to be longer, so a well-designed, efficient system matters more here because it runs for more of the year.
Heat pumps in Hull: questions
Do you cover Beverley as well as Hull?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Beverley, which is about 8 miles north-west of Hull, and across the East Riding of Yorkshire.
How long does a heat pump survey take in Hull?
A home survey in Hull 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.
What size heat pump does a Hull 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 Hull home.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump in Hull?
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 Hull home gives a room-by-room list.
