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

How long is the heating season in Lancaster?
On the shortest day Lancaster gets only about 7 hours 22 minutes of daylight and the noon sun sits around 13° above the horizon. Northern winters tend to be longer, so a well-designed, efficient system matters more here because it runs for more of the year.
Heat pumps in Lancaster: questions
Do you cover Morecambe as well as Lancaster?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Morecambe, which is about 3 miles north-west of Lancaster, and across Lancashire.
How soon can you survey a home in Lancaster?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in Lancashire. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump in Lancaster?
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 Lancaster home gives a room-by-room list.
Can you service a heat pump in Lancaster that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Lancaster, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
