Grants and rules for heat pumps in Wales

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 Newtown 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.

Newtown has about 7 hours 39 minutes of daylight at midwinter and 16 hours 50 minutes at midsummer. That swing matters if you pair a heat pump with solar panels: summer generation can cover much of the hot water, winter generation far less.

Heat pumps in Newtown: questions

Can you service a heat pump in Newtown that someone else installed?

Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Newtown, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.

How long does installation take in Newtown?

Most installations take 2–4 days on site. Jobs with several radiator changes or new pipework take longer, and your quote for a Newtown home states the expected time.

Do I need new radiators for a heat pump in Newtown?

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 Newtown home gives a room-by-room list.

Do you cover Welshpool as well as Newtown?

Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Welshpool, which is about 12 miles north-east of Newtown, and across Powys.
