Before you book: replacing an oil or LPG boiler with a heat pump in Royal Leamington Spa
Homes around Royal Leamington Spa range from older terraces to newer estates, and each needs a different design. That is why we survey before we quote.
Bungalows and detached houses near Royal Leamington Spa running on LPG can move to a heat pump, with the tank collected by the supplier. If your home near Royal Leamington Spa 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.
- Owners tired of fuel deliveries and tank maintenance
- Detached houses and bungalows with garden space for the unit
- Eligible homes in England and Wales within the higher grant window
What's included
- Outdoor unit, heat pump cylinder, controls and radiator changes
- Free survey with a detailed heat loss calculation for older construction
- Help arranging LPG tank collection with your supplier
- Oil tank draining and removal or making safe, as set out in your quote
- Network operator notification and electrical connection
Owners across Warwickshire can have oil tank removal arranged alongside a heat pump installation in Royal Leamington Spa.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in England
Homes in Royal Leamington Spa can use the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, which takes £7,500 off the cost of an air source heat pump when it replaces fossil-fuel or electric heating. Replacing oil or LPG heating qualifies for £9,000 for installations from 21 July 2026 to 31 March 2027, and air-to-air systems for £2,500. The MCS-certified installer named in your quote applies for the grant and deducts it from the price.
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.

Replacing an oil or LPG boiler with a heat pump in Royal Leamington Spa: questions
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump in Royal Leamington Spa?
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 Royal Leamington Spa home gives a room-by-room list.
How long does a heat pump survey take in Royal Leamington Spa?
A home survey in Royal Leamington Spa 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.
Can you service a heat pump in Royal Leamington Spa that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Royal Leamington Spa, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
Do I have to remove my oil tank?
Not always, but it should be emptied and made safe. A tank in good condition can be drained, cleaned and left in place, though most owners prefer to have it taken away to free up space. Old or damaged tanks are usually removed. Your quote says which option is included, and any remaining oil and sludge is disposed of properly.
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.
