Before you book: replacing a gas boiler with a heat pump in Hall Green
Homes around Hall Green range from older terraces to newer estates, and each needs a different design. That is why we survey before we quote.
Households across the West Midlands moving off gas can have a survey in Hall Green that compares running costs on realistic assumptions. If your Hall Green 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.
- Households ready to give up gas entirely and drop the standing charge
- Boilers that are old, unreliable or due for replacement
- Homes in England and Wales eligible for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
What's included
- Capping of the gas pipe at the boiler position where you are giving up gas
- Heat pump cylinder, outdoor unit and weather compensation controls
- Commissioning, MCS certificate and grant application in England and Wales where eligible
- Removal of the gas boiler, flue and any loft tanks
- System flush and radiator upgrades where the design calls for them
Installers in Hall Green take out the old boiler and flue and seal the wall opening as part of the job.
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 Hall Green quote.
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.
Gas boiler to heat pump prices in Hall Green
The ranges below are typical installed prices for homes in the West Midlands, including VAT. A survey sets the exact figure, because two similar-looking houses in Hall Green can need quite different radiators and pipework.

Replacing a gas boiler with a heat pump in Hall Green: questions
How soon can you survey a home in Hall Green?
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.
Can you service a heat pump in Hall Green that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Hall Green, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
How long does installation take in Hall Green?
Most installations take 2–4 days on site. Jobs with several radiator changes or new pipework take longer, and your quote for a Hall Green home states the expected time.
Do I need to replace the cylinder I already have?
Usually, yes. Older cylinders have a small internal coil designed for water from a boiler at around 60–70°C, and they cannot take in heat quickly enough at the lower temperatures a heat pump runs at. A heat pump cylinder has a larger coil. On its own, a cylinder supplied and fitted has a guide price of £1,200–£2,200, installed and including VAT, though it is normally part of the full system price.
What if my gas boiler is fairly new?
A newer boiler can still be replaced, but the timing is worth weighing. Some owners switch when the boiler needs a major repair; others prefer to plan the change for a convenient time. Across the UK, heat pump installation is zero-rated for VAT until 31 March 2027. A hybrid system, which keeps the boiler alongside a heat pump, is another option, though it is not eligible for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme in England and Wales.
