Grants and rules for heat pumps in Wales
Homes in Crickhowell can use the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, which applies in Wales as well as England: £7,500 towards an air source heat pump, or £9,000 when it replaces oil or LPG heating for installations from 21 July 2026 to 31 March 2027. The MCS-certified installer named in your quote applies and deducts the grant.
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.

Heat pumps in Crickhowell: questions
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump in Crickhowell?
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 Crickhowell home gives a room-by-room list.
How soon can you survey a home in Crickhowell?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in Powys. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
Can you service a heat pump in Crickhowell that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Crickhowell, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
Where would the outdoor unit go on a Crickhowell 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 Crickhowell home.
