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 Cheshunt 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.

Winter daylight and heating in Cheshunt
On the shortest day Cheshunt 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 Cheshunt: questions
Can you service a heat pump in Cheshunt that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Cheshunt, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
How long does installation take in Cheshunt?
Most installations take 2–4 days on site. Jobs with several radiator changes or new pipework take longer, and your quote for a Cheshunt home states the expected time.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump in Cheshunt?
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 Cheshunt home gives a room-by-room list.
How soon can you survey a home in Cheshunt?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in Hertfordshire. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
