Is It Possible To Get A Free Heat Pump For Businesses Or Homes?

While subsidies may not cover the complete cost of upgrading a gas hot water system to a heat pump, substantial financial support is still available. Combining these subsidies with the energy savings provided by a heat pump makes it a wise and cost-effective investment.

Is Installation Of A Heat Pump Included?

Absolutely, although we can just supply the heat pump on it’s own. Our team of fully trained, licensed plumbers and heating engineers will handle the installation process. You will receive all necessary compliance and safety certificates, with rebate paperwork organised on your behalf.

Can I Install A Heat Pump Myself?

No, self-installation is not permitted. Installation is not easy and it will usually require de-commissioning your old hot water system safely as part of the process, or incorporating it into your solar system (if you have one). However, don’t worry, as our licensed engineers will perform the installation, ensuring up-to-date compliance with program regulations.

Conclusions

Modern heat pump technology means heat pumps can be used almost anywhere. Whilst they don’t perform quite so well when it really is freezing, they are still the way to go if you want to seriously reduce your energy bills and be more eco-friendly at the same time.
