Most of the practical work is about people. Tenants need notice of the installation days, access to rooms where radiators change and a simple explanation of how to use the controls. We plan the installation in stages where possible, keep the time without heating and hot water as short as practical, and provide handover notes written for tenants.
Flats in County Fermanagh and across County Fermanagh need freeholder consent checked early, before the outdoor unit position is fixed. Landlords with let homes in County Fermanagh can have each property surveyed and quoted separately or as a group. Landlords in County Fermanagh can arrange annual servicing around tenancy changes and inspection visits.

Grants and rules for heat pumps in Northern Ireland
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme covers England and Wales only, and there is currently no dedicated heat pump grant for homeowners in Northern Ireland. Our quote for a home in County Fermanagh is therefore shown without a grant deduction; if support becomes available we will tell you how it applies.
There is no VAT on installing a heat pump in Northern Ireland until 31 March 2027, the same as in Great Britain. Planning and building control here follow Northern Ireland's own rules, so the survey checks the unit position against them.

Landlords and let properties questions
Can I install a heat pump while tenants are living in the property?
Yes. Most installations typically take 2–4 days on site, with heating and hot water off for part of that time. We agree dates and access with you, provide written details to pass to tenants, and plan the changeover to keep downtime short. Preparing the outdoor unit and cylinder first shortens the period without heating.
Can a heat pump go on a block of flats or an HMO?
Often, yes, but it needs more planning. In flats, the outdoor unit position and pipe routes usually need freeholder or management company consent, and some positions need planning permission depending on the nation, which we check at survey. In HMOs, hot water demand is higher, so cylinder sizing is critical. Larger buildings may suit a commercial design instead.
Do tenants need training to use a heat pump?
Not training, but a clear explanation helps. Heat pumps are designed to run steadily, with radiators feeling warm rather than hot, so tenants used to boilers may be tempted to switch them off. We provide a handover sheet written for tenants covering the controls, hot water times, what to do if an error appears and why the unit should stay on.
