Oil and LPG boiler replacement for Mansfield homes
Every property in Mansfield 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.
Bungalows and detached houses near Mansfield running on LPG can move to a heat pump, with the tank collected by the supplier. If your home near Mansfield is off the mains gas grid, a heat pump removes the need for oil or LPG deliveries.
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
- Network operator notification and electrical connection
- Free survey with a detailed heat loss calculation for older construction
- Help arranging LPG tank collection with your supplier
- Removal of the oil or LPG boiler and flue
- Outdoor unit, heat pump cylinder, controls and radiator changes
Owners across Nottinghamshire can have oil tank removal arranged alongside a heat pump installation in Mansfield.
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 Mansfield quote.
There is no VAT on installing a heat pump anywhere in the UK until 31 March 2027. In England most houses can have an air source heat pump under permitted development, provided the unit meets the MCS noise and siting standards; the old 1 m boundary limit was removed on 29 May 2025. We flag listed buildings, flats and sensitive conservation-area positions at survey.

How long is the heating season in Mansfield?
Mansfield has about 7 hours 32 minutes of daylight at midwinter and 16 hours 58 minutes at midsummer. That swing matters if you pair a heat pump with solar panels: summer generation can cover much of the hot water, winter generation far less.

- On installation days the old system is removed and the new one fitted and filled.
- We commission the heat pump, show you the controls and register the installation.
Replacing an oil or LPG boiler with a heat pump in Mansfield: questions
Can you service a heat pump in Mansfield that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Mansfield, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
How soon can you survey a home in Mansfield?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in Nottinghamshire. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
What size heat pump does a Mansfield home need?
It depends on the heat loss, not the postcode. As a rough guide, a 3 bedroom semi often needs 6–9 kW, but the room-by-room survey sets the actual size for your Mansfield home.
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.
Is a heat pump cheaper to run than oil?
It depends on oil prices, your home's insulation, the flow temperature and your electricity tariff, so there is no single answer. At the October to December 2026 price cap, a heat pump with a seasonal efficiency of 3.0 delivers heat for about 8.8p per kWh, and at 3.5 about 7.5p. Compare that with your oil cost per kWh of heat, allowing for your boiler's efficiency; the survey estimate gives a figure for your home.
