Grants and rules for heat pumps in England
Homes in Bilston 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.

Winter daylight and heating in Bilston
Bilston has about 7 hours 38 minutes of daylight at midwinter and 16 hours 51 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 Bilston: questions
Can you service a heat pump in Bilston that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Bilston, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
How soon can you survey a home in Bilston?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in the West Midlands. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
What size heat pump does a Bilston home need?
It depends on the heat loss, not the postcode. As a rough guide, a 3 bedroom semi often needs 6–9 kW, but the room-by-room survey sets the actual size for your Bilston home.
How long does installation take in Bilston?
Most installations take 2–4 days on site. Jobs with several radiator changes or new pipework take longer, and your quote for a Bilston home states the expected time.
