Heat Pumps in Billingham: common questions

How much does a heat pump cost in Billingham?

An air source heat pump installed typically runs £8,000 to £14,000 before the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, which takes £7,500 off for eligible homes. Running costs depend on your insulation and electricity tariff, a well insulated Teesside semi usually breaks even or better against a gas boiler.

Is my house suitable for a heat pump?

The honest answer is that insulation decides it. Heat pumps run at lower temperatures than boilers, so draughty houses with small radiators will feel the difference. A competent installer does a room by room heat loss survey before quoting, be suspicious of any quote given without one.

What is MCS certification and why does it matter?

MCS is the microgeneration certification scheme, and only MCS certified installers can fit systems eligible for the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant. It also gives you an installation certificate and access to the scheme's complaints process. No MCS, no grant, it is that simple.
