We cover Morecambe and nearby Lancaster, Carnforth and the rest of Lancashire. A heat pump is a whole-system change, so the survey looks at radiators, pipework, the hot water cylinder and the best spot for the outdoor unit.

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 Morecambe 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.

How long is the heating season in Morecambe?
On the shortest day Morecambe gets only about 7 hours 21 minutes of daylight and the noon sun sits around 12° 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 Morecambe: questions
What size heat pump does a Morecambe 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 Morecambe home.
Do you cover Lancaster as well as Morecambe?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Lancaster, which is about 3 miles south-east of Morecambe, and across Lancashire.
Where would the outdoor unit go on a Morecambe 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 Morecambe home.
How soon can you survey a home in Morecambe?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in Lancashire. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
