Grants and rules for heat pumps in England
Homes in Rugby can use the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, which takes £7,500 off the cost of an air source heat pump when it replaces fossil-fuel or electric heating. Replacing oil or LPG heating qualifies for £9,000 for installations from 21 July 2026 to 31 March 2027, and air-to-air systems for £2,500. The MCS-certified installer named in your quote applies for the grant and deducts it from the price.
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.

Guide prices for Rugby and the rest of Warwickshire are shown below, installed and inc VAT. We publish ranges rather than a single figure because design details move the price, and the written quote after survey fixes it.

Designing for Rugby's winters
On the shortest day Rugby gets about 7 hours 40 minutes of daylight, with the noon sun around 14° up. The heating season runs from autumn into spring, so a heat pump that is sized correctly and set up with weather compensation does most of its work in steady, cool conditions.
Heat pumps in Rugby: questions
Do you cover Lutterworth as well as Rugby?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Lutterworth, which is about 6 miles north-east of Rugby, and across Warwickshire.
How long does installation take in Rugby?
Most installations take 2–4 days on site. Jobs with several radiator changes or new pipework take longer, and your quote for a Rugby home states the expected time.
How long does a heat pump survey take in Rugby?
A home survey in Rugby 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 soon can you survey a home in Rugby?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in Warwickshire. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
