Gas boiler to heat pump in Lisnaskea: what to expect
Every property in Lisnaskea is different, so the design starts from measurements rather than a rule of thumb. That keeps the system the right size and the running costs predictable.
Households across County Fermanagh moving off gas can have a survey in Lisnaskea that compares running costs on realistic assumptions. If your Lisnaskea home still cooks on gas, we talk through whether to keep the supply or switch to an induction hob.
Moving from mains gas to a heat pump means finding cylinder space, deciding what happens to the gas supply and comparing running costs on realistic assumptions.
- System or regular boiler homes with an existing airing cupboard
- Boilers that are old, unreliable or due for replacement
- Households ready to give up gas entirely and drop the standing charge
What's included
- System flush and radiator upgrades where the design calls for them
- Heat pump cylinder, outdoor unit and weather compensation controls
- Removal of the gas boiler, flue and any loft tanks
- Capping of the gas pipe at the boiler position where you are giving up gas
- Free survey with heat loss calculation and cylinder siting
Semi-detached and terraced houses in Lisnaskea often have an airing cupboard that can be reused for a heat pump cylinder.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in Northern Ireland
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme covers England and Wales only, and there is currently no dedicated heat pump grant for homeowners in Northern Ireland. Our quote for a Lisnaskea home is therefore shown without a grant deduction; if support becomes available we will tell you how it applies.
Installing heat pumps has been zero-rated for VAT in Northern Ireland since 1 May 2023, in line with the rest of the UK, until 31 March 2027. Northern Ireland has its own permitted development rules and building regulations, and we confirm what applies to your Lisnaskea property at survey.

Replacing a gas boiler with a heat pump in Lisnaskea: questions
What size heat pump does a Lisnaskea 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 Lisnaskea home.
Can you service a heat pump in Lisnaskea that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Lisnaskea, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
How long does a heat pump survey take in Lisnaskea?
A home survey in Lisnaskea 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.
Is there a grant to replace a gas boiler with a heat pump?
In England and Wales, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme gives £7,500 towards an air-to-water heat pump that replaces a gas boiler, for eligible owners of existing homes. The MCS-certified installer applies to Ofgem and deducts the grant from your quote, and Ofgem contacts you to confirm. Scotland has separate Home Energy Scotland funding, and Northern Ireland has no dedicated homeowner grant at present.
Will my hot water run out with a heat pump?
Not if the cylinder is sized properly for your household. The survey asks how many people live in the home, how many bathrooms you have and whether you prefer baths or showers, then sizes the cylinder to suit. The heat pump reheats the cylinder on a schedule, often overnight and again during the day, and an immersion heater acts as a backup.
