Heat pump radiators in Lanark: what to expect
Homes around Lanark range from older terraces to newer estates, and each needs a different design. That is why we survey before we quote.
Radiator fitting in Lanark is scheduled with your heat pump installation so the system is drained only once. In Lanark, 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 with little wall space, where a fan-assisted radiator fits better
- 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
- Making good around brackets and pipe routes, with any decorating agreed in your quote
- Supply and fitting of new radiators, valves and brackets
- Balancing every radiator so each room heats evenly
- Pipework checks and any agreed pipe upgrades
- Draining, refilling, cleaning and inhibitor treatment of the heating system
We plan radiator upgrades in Lanark so floorboards are lifted only where pipework genuinely needs changing.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in Scotland
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme does not apply in Scotland. Instead, homeowners in Lanark 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.
There is no VAT on installing a heat pump anywhere in the UK, Scotland included, until 31 March 2027. Scottish permitted development rules and building standards apply, and the surveyor checks the unit position and any listed or conservation-area constraints.

Short winter days in Lanark and what they mean
On the shortest day Lanark gets only about 7 hours 01 minutes of daylight, with the sun around 11° up at noon. Long Scottish winters mean the heat pump runs for much of the year, so careful sizing, good controls and correctly sized radiators make a real difference.

Heat pump radiator upgrades in Lanark: questions
Can you service a heat pump in Lanark that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Lanark, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
How soon can you survey a home in Lanark?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in Lanarkshire. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
How long does a heat pump survey take in Lanark?
A home survey in Lanark 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.
How much does a heat pump radiator cost?
A replacement radiator sized for a heat pump has a guide price of £250–£450 each, installed and including VAT. Upgrading about ten radiators in a typical home has a guide price of £2,000–£5,000. The final price is fixed in your written quote after the survey, once the radiator schedule shows exactly which radiators change.
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.
