Oil and LPG boiler replacement in Lisnaskea: what to expect
Every property in Lisnaskea is different, so the design starts from measurements rather than a rule of thumb. That keeps the system the right size and the running costs predictable.
Cottages and farmhouses in and around Lisnaskea often have solid walls, so the survey looks closely at construction and draughts. Rural properties near Lisnaskea usually have garden space for the outdoor unit, sited away from windows and sheltered where possible.
Off-gas homes have a lot to plan when switching to a heat pump: the fuel tank, older walls, rural power supplies and higher heat loss.
- Detached houses and bungalows with garden space for the unit
- Owners tired of fuel deliveries and tank maintenance
- Older oil boilers nearing the end of their life
What's included
- Help arranging LPG tank collection with your supplier
- Network operator notification and electrical connection
- Outdoor unit, heat pump cylinder, controls and radiator changes
- Free survey with a detailed heat loss calculation for older construction
- Removal of the oil or LPG boiler and flue
If your home near Lisnaskea is off the mains gas grid, a heat pump removes the need for oil or LPG deliveries.

Replacing an oil or LPG boiler with a heat pump in Lisnaskea: questions
How long does a heat pump survey take in Lisnaskea?
A home survey in Lisnaskea 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 Lisnaskea?
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 Lisnaskea home gives a room-by-room list.
How soon can you survey a home in Lisnaskea?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in County Fermanagh. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
Will I need bigger radiators in an older cottage or farmhouse?
Often in some rooms, because thick solid walls and older windows lose more heat, and heat pumps work at lower water temperatures than oil boilers. The survey checks each room. Rooms with high ceilings or large windows are common candidates for a larger radiator. Where swapping radiators is impractical, a high-temperature unit can be considered, with lower efficiency as the trade-off.
What happens with a leased LPG tank?
Leased LPG tanks belong to the supplier, so the supplier arranges collection. Check your contract for notice periods and any charges before you fix a date. We time the switchover so you are not left without heating, and once the heat pump is commissioned the supplier can empty and remove the tank. Bottled LPG cylinders are simply returned.
