Grants and rules for heat pumps in Wales
In Wales 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; £2,500 for air-to-air). The MCS-certified installer named in your quote applies to Ofgem for you, and the grant comes off your Bargoed quote.
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 Bargoed?

Heat pumps in Bargoed: questions
Do you cover Blackwood as well as Bargoed?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Blackwood, which is about 2 miles south-east of Bargoed, and across Mid Glamorgan.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump in Bargoed?
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 Bargoed home gives a room-by-room list.
How soon can you survey a home in Bargoed?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in Mid Glamorgan. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
Where would the outdoor unit go on a Bargoed 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 Bargoed home.
