Before you book: heat pump radiator upgrades in Tandragee
In Tandragee, as anywhere in the UK, the heat pumps that perform well are the ones designed around low flow temperatures and sized from a proper heat loss calculation.
We plan radiator upgrades in Tandragee so floorboards are lifted only where pipework genuinely needs changing. In Tandragee, 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.
- Homeowners who want the lowest practical flow temperature for efficiency
- Rooms with little wall space, where a fan-assisted radiator fits better
- Extensions and loft conversions with large areas of glazing
What's included
- Supply and fitting of new radiators, valves and brackets
- Balancing every radiator so each room heats evenly
- Making good around brackets and pipe routes, with any decorating agreed in your quote
- Room-by-room heat loss figures for every heated room
- Draining, refilling, cleaning and inhibitor treatment of the heating system
For period homes in Tandragee and across County Armagh, column radiators can keep the character of a room while giving enough heat at low temperatures.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland does not have a dedicated heat pump grant for homeowners at present, and the Boiler Upgrade Scheme does not apply here. Heat pumps have sometimes been funded through the Northern Ireland Sustainable Energy Programme, so it is worth checking what is open when you enquire about a home in Tandragee.
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 Tandragee property at survey.

|---|---|
| Replacement radiator, sized for a heat pump (each, fitted) | £240–£440 |
| Upgrade of about 10 radiators | £1,950–£4,850 |

Installed, inc VAT. The survey lists which radiators need changing.
Winter daylight and heating in Tandragee
On the shortest day Tandragee gets only about 7 hours 18 minutes of daylight and the noon sun sits around 12° above the horizon. Northern winters tend to be longer, so a well-designed, efficient system matters more here because it runs for more of the year.

- Installers fit the unit, cylinder and any radiator changes, typically over 2–4 days on site.
- The system is commissioned, set up with weather compensation and handed over with the paperwork.
Heat pump radiator upgrades in Tandragee: questions
Can you service a heat pump in Tandragee that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Tandragee, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
Do you cover Portadown as well as Tandragee?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Portadown, which is about 5 miles north of Tandragee, and across County Armagh.
How long does a heat pump survey take in Tandragee?
A home survey in Tandragee 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.
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.
Can I keep my radiators and just run the heat pump hotter?
You can, but it usually costs more to run. Every extra degree of flow temperature reduces a heat pump's efficiency, so a system designed at 55°C uses noticeably more electricity than one at 45°C for the same heat. A few well-chosen radiator upgrades often let the whole house run cooler, which is the better long-term trade.
