A well-designed installation is tailored to the way your home performs. By reviewing the property, hot water demand, radiators, insulation, and EPC data, your system can be specified to keep rooms comfortable through the seasons, support lower energy use, and help future-proof your property.
Our online heat pump installation estimate is built to help homeowners in Kent understand likely system sizing, grant support, running cost impact, and the next steps towards a full survey and formal quotation.
Conventional boilers usually run at around 75-90% efficiency, while heat pumps can deliver efficiencies of up to and above 300%.
Switching to a heat pump can cut your heating costs by as much as 40%, with extra savings if combined with solar panels.
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers funding of up to £7,500 to make switching to a heat pump more affordable.

Questions
Heat pump installation FAQs.
These answers cover the most common questions homeowners ask before moving ahead with a heat pump installation, system design, and survey work.
How efficient are air source heat pumps?
Air source heat pumps are highly efficient, typically delivering 300-400% efficiency. This means for every 1kW of electricity used, they can generate 3-4kW of heat. In comparison, a traditional gas boiler operates at around 85-90% efficiency.
Will a heat pump work in cold UK weather?
Yes. Modern systems, including R290 refrigerant models, are designed to operate efficiently in UK conditions, even at temperatures as low as -15C. Performance reduces slightly in colder weather, but systems are designed and sized to meet peak demand.
What size heat pump do I need?
The correct size depends on a full heat loss calculation of your property, typically in line with BS EN 12831. Factors include insulation levels, floor area, glazing, and ventilation. A professional survey is required to determine the correct kW output.
Do I need to upgrade my radiators?
In many cases, yes. Heat pumps operate at lower flow temperatures, typically up to 55C, so larger radiators or underfloor heating may be required to maintain comfort levels. This is assessed during the design stage.
How long does installation take?
Most domestic installations take 3-5 days, depending on system complexity, property size, and whether upgrades such as radiators, pipework, or a cylinder are required.
Will I need a hot water cylinder?
Yes. Heat pumps require a hot water cylinder to store and deliver domestic hot water efficiently. Combi boilers are typically replaced with a cylinder-based system.
How much does a heat pump cost in the UK?
Typical installation costs range from £8,000 to £16,000, depending on the system and property. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme currently offers a £7,500 grant, significantly reducing upfront costs.
Are heat pumps cheaper to run than gas boilers?
They can be. While electricity is more expensive than gas per kWh, the higher efficiency of heat pumps can result in lower overall running costs, especially in well-insulated homes. Savings of up to 30-50% are possible in optimal conditions.
Is my home suitable for a heat pump?
Most UK homes are suitable, but key factors include adequate insulation, space for an external unit, and internal space for a cylinder. A site survey will confirm suitability and highlight any required upgrades.
Do heat pumps require maintenance?
Yes. Like any heating system, annual servicing is recommended to maintain performance and warranty compliance. This includes system checks, filter cleaning, and optimisation of controls.
