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 Middlesbrough quote.
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.

Short winter days in Middlesbrough and what they mean
On the shortest day Middlesbrough gets only about 7 hours 15 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 Middlesbrough: questions
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump in Middlesbrough?
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 Middlesbrough home gives a room-by-room list.
Can you service a heat pump in Middlesbrough that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Middlesbrough, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
How soon can you survey a home in Middlesbrough?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in North Yorkshire. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
Do you cover Thornaby-on-Tees as well as Middlesbrough?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Thornaby-on-Tees, which is about 4 miles south-west of Middlesbrough, and across North Yorkshire.
