Heat pump radiators for Fleet homes
Most homes can run on a heat pump if the system is designed properly, and Fleet is no different. The key is matching the heat pump and radiators to the home's heat loss.
In Fleet, bay-windowed front rooms are often the rooms that need a larger radiator when moving to a heat pump. Many older houses in Fleet still have their original single-panel radiators, so the survey checks each one against the room it heats.
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.
- Homes switching from a gas, oil or LPG boiler to a heat pump
- Rooms with little wall space, where a fan-assisted radiator fits better
- Homeowners who want the lowest practical flow temperature for efficiency
What's included
- Supply and fitting of new radiators, valves and brackets
- Draining, refilling, cleaning and inhibitor treatment of the heating system
- Balancing every radiator so each room heats evenly
- Making good around brackets and pipe routes, with any decorating agreed in your quote
- A radiator schedule showing which radiators stay, which change and their outputs
For period homes in Fleet and across Hampshire, column radiators can keep the character of a room while giving enough heat at low temperatures.
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 Fleet quote.
Installing heat pumps is zero-rated for VAT across the UK until 31 March 2027. Since 29 May 2025, permitted development in England allows up to two air source heat pumps on a house, each up to 1.5 m³, with no blanket 1 m boundary rule — the installation must still meet the MCS planning standards, including the noise check. Listed buildings, flats and some conservation-area positions need extra consent, which we check at survey.
Guide prices for heat pump radiator upgrades in Fleet
Guide prices for Fleet and the rest of Hampshire are shown below, installed and inc VAT. We publish ranges rather than a single figure because design details move the price, and the written quote after survey fixes it.
| Work | Guide price |
|---|---|
| Replacement radiator, sized for a heat pump (each, fitted) | £260–£460 |
| Upgrade of about 10 radiators | £2,050–£5,150 |
| Pipework upgrade (e.g. microbore to larger bore) | £1,550–£3,600 |
Installed, inc VAT. The survey lists which radiators need changing.
Winter daylight and heating in Fleet
Fleet sees roughly 7 hours 52 minutes of daylight in late December against 16 hours 36 minutes in June. Milder southern winters suit heat pumps well, though the system is still sized for a cold snap rather than an average day.
The steps for heat pump radiator upgrades in Fleet
- Send your postcode and a few details, or use the guide price tool.
- A surveyor visits your Fleet home, measures every room and checks where the outdoor unit can go.
- You receive a heat loss design and a fixed written quote, with any grant shown where it applies.
- 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 Fleet: questions
Do you cover Farnborough as well as Fleet?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Farnborough, which is about 3 miles east of Fleet, and across Hampshire.
Can you service a heat pump in Fleet that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Fleet, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
Where would the outdoor unit go on a Fleet 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 Fleet home.
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.
