Grants and rules for heat pumps in England
In England 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), and since 28 April 2026 a valid EPC is no longer needed. The grant is applied for by the MCS-certified installer and shown as a deduction on your Kings Heath quote.
Installing heat pumps is zero-rated for VAT across the UK until 31 March 2027. Since 29 May 2025, permitted development in England allows up to two air source heat pumps on a house, each up to 1.5 m³, with no blanket 1 m boundary rule — the installation must still meet the MCS planning standards, including the noise check. Listed buildings, flats and some conservation-area positions need extra consent, which we check at survey.
Heat pump guide prices in Kings Heath
These are guide prices for the West Midlands, installed and including VAT. Your final price is fixed in a written quote after the survey and depends on the heat loss of the house, the radiators that need changing and where the unit goes.

Short winter days in Kings Heath and what they mean
Kings Heath has about 7 hours 40 minutes of daylight at midwinter and 16 hours 49 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 Kings Heath: questions
Can you service a heat pump in Kings Heath that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Kings Heath, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
Where would the outdoor unit go on a Kings Heath 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 Kings Heath home.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump in Kings Heath?
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 Kings Heath home gives a room-by-room list.
What size heat pump does a Kings Heath 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 Kings Heath home.
