Before you book: replacing an oil or LPG boiler with a heat pump in Liversedge
A heat pump suits most Liversedge homes, but the details decide how efficiently it runs. Our survey looks at insulation, radiators and hot water use room by room.
Bungalows and detached houses near Liversedge running on LPG can move to a heat pump, with the tank collected by the supplier. If your home near Liversedge 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.
- Eligible homes in England and Wales within the higher grant window
- 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
- Free survey with a detailed heat loss calculation for older construction
- MCS certificate and grant application in England and Wales where eligible
- Network operator notification and electrical connection
- Removal of the oil or LPG boiler and flue
Owners across West Yorkshire can have oil tank removal arranged alongside a heat pump installation in Liversedge.
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 Liversedge quote.
Installing heat pumps is zero-rated for VAT across the UK until 31 March 2027. Since 29 May 2025, permitted development in England allows up to two air source heat pumps on a house, each up to 1.5 m³, with no blanket 1 m boundary rule — the installation must still meet the MCS planning standards, including the noise check. Listed buildings, flats and some conservation-area positions need extra consent, which we check at survey.

Winter daylight and heating in Liversedge

Replacing an oil or LPG boiler with a heat pump in Liversedge: questions
How soon can you survey a home in Liversedge?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in West Yorkshire. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
Where would the outdoor unit go on a Liversedge house?
Usually at the side or rear, on a level base with space around it for airflow and servicing, away from bedroom windows where possible. The surveyor checks positions at your Liversedge home.
Do you cover Cleckheaton as well as Liversedge?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Cleckheaton, which is about 2 miles north-west of Liversedge, and across West Yorkshire.
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.
