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 Ripon 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.

Heat pumps in Ripon: questions
Do you cover Knaresborough as well as Ripon?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Knaresborough, which is about 9 miles south of Ripon, and across North Yorkshire.
How long does a heat pump survey take in Ripon?
A home survey in Ripon 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 long does installation take in Ripon?
Most installations take 2–4 days on site. Jobs with several radiator changes or new pipework take longer, and your quote for a Ripon home states the expected time.
Where would the outdoor unit go on a Ripon 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 Ripon home.
