Grants and rules for heat pumps in Scotland
In Scotland, heat pump funding comes through Home Energy Scotland rather than the Boiler Upgrade Scheme: a grant of up to £7,500 (up to £1,500 extra for eligible rural and island homes) and an optional interest-free loan of up to £7,500. For a Milngavie home, apply and receive the written offer before the installation date is fixed.
There is no VAT on installing a heat pump anywhere in the UK, Scotland included, until 31 March 2027. Scottish permitted development rules and building standards apply, and the surveyor checks the unit position and any listed or conservation-area constraints.

Heat pumps in Milngavie: questions
How long does installation take in Milngavie?
Most installations take 2–4 days on site. Jobs with several radiator changes or new pipework take longer, and your quote for a Milngavie home states the expected time.
Can you service a heat pump in Milngavie that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Milngavie, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
How long does a heat pump survey take in Milngavie?
A home survey in Milngavie 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.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump in Milngavie?
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 Milngavie home gives a room-by-room list.
