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

Winter daylight and heating in Dursley
On the shortest day Dursley gets about 7 hours 48 minutes of daylight, with the noon sun around 15° up. The heating season runs from autumn into spring, so a heat pump that is sized correctly and set up with weather compensation does most of its work in steady, cool conditions.
Heat pumps in Dursley: questions
Do you cover Lydney as well as Dursley?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Lydney, which is about 8 miles north-west of Dursley, and across Gloucestershire.
How long does a heat pump survey take in Dursley?
A home survey in Dursley 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.
Where would the outdoor unit go on a Dursley 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 Dursley home.
How long does installation take in Dursley?
Most installations take 2–4 days on site. Jobs with several radiator changes or new pipework take longer, and your quote for a Dursley home states the expected time.
