Heat pump grants in Haverfordwest: questions
Can you service a heat pump in Haverfordwest that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Haverfordwest, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
How soon can you survey a home in Haverfordwest?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in Dyfed. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
Where would the outdoor unit go on a Haverfordwest 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 Haverfordwest home.
Do I need an EPC for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme?
No longer. Since 28 April 2026, a valid EPC is not required for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme in England and Wales. The system must still meet the home's full heating and hot water needs, which the room-by-room heat loss calculation confirms. The other eligibility rules, such as owning the property, still apply.
How much is the heat pump grant?
It depends on where you live. In England and Wales, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme pays £7,500 towards an air-to-water heat pump, or £9,000 when replacing oil or LPG heating for installations from 21 July 2026 to 31 March 2027. In Scotland, Home Energy Scotland offers up to £7,500, plus a rural uplift and an optional loan. Northern Ireland has no dedicated grant at present.
