If you're a homeowner replacing a boiler or moving away from oil, LPG, or old gas heating, a heat pump cuts carbon and may qualify for the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant — but budget for radiator upgrades and check your insulation first.
Problem it solves
Replaces gas or oil heating with an electric heat pump system to reduce heating carbon emissions and potentially lower running costs on suitable tariffs.
Who it's for
UK homeowners with space for an outdoor unit who want to decarbonise heating, particularly those replacing old or broken boilers, in areas without mains gas, or planning to retrofit insulation.
Why we recommend
Heatable know what they are doing - they will give you good, frank advice and a fair price.
Savings
- Typical annual saving
- Savings depend on current heating fuel, property efficiency, heat pump COP, and tariff; many see lower bills replacing oil/LPG, neutral or higher bills replacing modern gas boilers without cheap-rate tariff
- Payback period
- Highly variable by existing system and property
