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 Strathaven home, apply and receive the written offer before the installation date is fixed.
Installing heat pumps is zero-rated for VAT across the UK until 31 March 2027. Scotland has its own permitted development rules for air source heat pumps and its own building standards, so we confirm what applies to your Strathaven property at survey.
Heat pump guide prices in Strathaven
These are guide prices for Lanarkshire, installed and including VAT. Your final price is fixed in a written quote after the survey and depends on the heat loss of the house, the radiators that need changing and where the unit goes.

| 2–3 bedroom terrace or semi | 5–7 kW | £10,500–£13,500 |

Short winter days in Strathaven and what they mean

Heat pumps in Strathaven: questions
How long does a heat pump survey take in Strathaven?
A home survey in Strathaven 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.
How soon can you survey a home in Strathaven?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in Lanarkshire. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
What size heat pump does a Strathaven 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 Strathaven home.
How long does installation take in Strathaven?
Most installations take 2–4 days on site. Jobs with several radiator changes or new pipework take longer, and your quote for a Strathaven home states the expected time.
