Heat pump radiators for Inverurie homes
Homes around Inverurie range from older terraces to newer estates, and each needs a different design. That is why we survey before we quote.
Extensions and kitchen-diners around Inverurie with large glazed areas get their own radiator calculation. In Inverurie, bay-windowed front rooms are often the rooms that need a larger radiator when moving to a heat pump.
We size each radiator to your room-by-room heat loss so a heat pump can heat your home at a low, efficient flow temperature.
- Rooms that already feel slow to heat, such as bay-windowed living rooms
- Extensions and loft conversions with large areas of glazing
- Homes switching from a gas, oil or LPG boiler to a heat pump
What's included
- Supply and fitting of new radiators, valves and brackets
- Draining, refilling, cleaning and inhibitor treatment of the heating system
- A radiator schedule showing which radiators stay, which change and their outputs
- Room-by-room heat loss figures for every heated room
- Making good around brackets and pipe routes, with any decorating agreed in your quote
For period homes in Inverurie and across Aberdeenshire and Moray, column radiators can keep the character of a room while giving enough heat at low temperatures.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in Scotland
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme does not apply in Scotland. Instead, homeowners in Inverurie can apply to Home Energy Scotland for a grant of up to £7,500 towards a heat pump, with up to £1,500 more for eligible rural and island homes, plus an optional interest-free loan of up to £7,500. You need a written funding offer before any work starts.
Installing heat pumps is zero-rated for VAT across the UK until 31 March 2027. Scotland has its own permitted development rules for air source heat pumps and its own building standards, so we confirm what applies to your Inverurie property at survey.
Guide prices for heat pump radiator upgrades in Inverurie
The ranges below are typical installed prices for homes in Aberdeenshire and Moray, including VAT. A survey sets the exact figure, because two similar-looking houses in Inverurie can need quite different radiators and pipework.

|---|---|
| Replacement radiator, sized for a heat pump (each, fitted) | £260–£460 |
| Upgrade of about 10 radiators | £2,050–£5,150 |

Installed, inc VAT. The survey lists which radiators need changing.
Designing for Inverurie's winters
Inverurie has about 6 hours 38 minutes of daylight at midwinter against 17 hours 58 minutes in midsummer. Heat pumps are designed to keep working well below freezing, but the design temperature for the survey is set for local conditions, not an average day.

Heat pump radiator upgrades in Inverurie: questions
Can you service a heat pump in Inverurie that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Inverurie, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
How long does a heat pump survey take in Inverurie?
A home survey in Inverurie 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.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump in Inverurie?
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 Inverurie home gives a room-by-room list.
Can radiators be changed without draining the whole system?
Radiator changes normally mean draining the heating system, which is why they are usually done as part of the heat pump installation. The system is then refilled, flushed, treated with inhibitor and balanced. Doing the radiators at the same time avoids draining twice and means the new radiators are commissioned with the heat pump.
Are fan-assisted radiators noisy?
Fan-assisted radiators make a low, steady fan sound when running at higher output, and many have quieter settings for bedrooms at night. They are useful where wall space is short, such as a kitchen with few clear walls. They need a small electrical supply, which we plan into the installation if you choose them.
