Heat pump services in Hawick

Grants and rules for heat pumps in Scotland
In Scotland, heat pump funding comes through Home Energy Scotland rather than the Boiler Upgrade Scheme: a grant of up to £7,500 (up to £1,500 extra for eligible rural and island homes) and an optional interest-free loan of up to £7,500. For a Hawick home, apply and receive the written offer before the installation date is fixed.
Installing heat pumps is zero-rated for VAT across the UK until 31 March 2027. Scotland has its own permitted development rules for air source heat pumps and its own building standards, so we confirm what applies to your Hawick property at survey.

Winter daylight and heating in Hawick
On the shortest day Hawick gets only about 7 hours 04 minutes of daylight, with the sun around 11° up at noon. Long Scottish winters mean the heat pump runs for much of the year, so careful sizing, good controls and correctly sized radiators make a real difference.
Heat pumps in Hawick: questions
Do you cover Selkirk as well as Hawick?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Selkirk, which is about 9 miles north of Hawick, and across the Scottish Borders.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump in Hawick?
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 Hawick home gives a room-by-room list.
How long does installation take in Hawick?
Most installations take 2–4 days on site. Jobs with several radiator changes or new pipework take longer, and your quote for a Hawick home states the expected time.
How soon can you survey a home in Hawick?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in the Scottish Borders. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
