What Affects the Cost?

Heat pump costs in Andover depend on system capacity (kW rating), installation complexity, and property condition. Air source systems typically cost less than ground source installations due to reduced groundwork. Your existing heating infrastructure—whether you're replacing a boiler or installing new pipework—significantly impacts labour and materials. Distance from local suppliers, access to your property, and whether you qualify for government grants like the Boiler Upgrade Scheme also influence final costs.

Money-Saving Tips

Check eligibility for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, which provides £5,000 grants towards heat pump installations. Obtain multiple quotes from local installers and compare package deals. Schedule installation during off-peak seasons (late autumn/early winter) when engineers may offer better availability and pricing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are there government grants for heat pump installation in Andover?

Yes. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers £5,000 towards the cost of an air source heat pump or £6,000 for ground source systems. You must use an MCS-certified installer. Check gov.uk for current eligibility criteria and application deadlines.

Why does ground source cost more than air source?

Ground source systems require borehole drilling (typically 100+ metres deep) or extensive trench laying, adding £3,000–£8,000+ to installation costs. Air source systems need only outdoor unit placement, making them faster and cheaper to install.

Can I install a heat pump myself to save money?

No. Heat pump installation requires MCS certification, gas safety sign-off, and specialist qualifications. DIY attempts void warranties, fail to qualify for grants, and create safety risks. Always use a certified installer.

How long does heat pump installation take?

Air source installations typically take 2–3 days. Ground source systems can take 7–14 days depending on ground conditions and whether trenching or drilling is needed. Your installer will provide a timeline during the survey phase.
