Grants and rules for heat pumps in Wales
Homes in Pontypool can use the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, which applies in Wales as well as England: £7,500 towards an air source heat pump, or £9,000 when it replaces oil or LPG heating for installations from 21 July 2026 to 31 March 2027. The MCS-certified installer named in your quote applies and deducts the grant.
Installing heat pumps is zero-rated for VAT across the UK until 31 March 2027. Wales has its own permitted development rules for air source heat pumps, so we check what applies to your property, including listed building and conservation-area constraints, at the survey.

How long is the heating season in Pontypool?
On the shortest day Pontypool gets about 7 hours 47 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 Pontypool: questions
Where would the outdoor unit go on a Pontypool 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 Pontypool home.
Do you cover Cwmbran as well as Pontypool?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Cwmbran, which is about 3 miles south of Pontypool, and across Gwent.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump in Pontypool?
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 Pontypool home gives a room-by-room list.
Can you service a heat pump in Pontypool that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Pontypool, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
