What Affects the Cost?

Heat pump installation costs depend on property size, system capacity, and whether you're replacing an existing boiler or integrating new pipework. Property age and insulation standards significantly affect system sizing and labour time. Ground source systems cost substantially more than air source due to drilling requirements. Access to the property, need for thermal storage, and integration with underfloor heating or radiators also influence final pricing. Local Farnborough factors include housing stock characteristics and installer availability in the South East.

Money-Saving Tips

Book surveys in winter for competitive quotes. Install air source over ground source if your garden is limited—it's 40–50% cheaper. Combine heat pump installation with boiler replacement to streamline work and reduce disruption. Check eligibility for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (£5,000 government grant), which significantly reduces net costs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between air source and ground source heat pumps?

Air source units extract heat from the air and are simpler to install (£8,000–£14,500). Ground source systems use underground boreholes (£15,000–£25,000+) and deliver higher efficiency in suitable properties. Air source is more cost-effective for most Farnborough homes.

Can I get a grant for a heat pump installation?

Yes. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme provides £5,000 towards air source heat pump installations and £6,000 for ground source systems. You must replace a fossil fuel boiler. Check eligibility and apply before booking installation.

How long does heat pump installation take?

Air source installation typically takes 3–5 days. Ground source systems, including borehole drilling, can take 2–3 weeks. Survey and design add 1–2 weeks before work begins.

Will I need new pipework and radiators?

Most properties need some pipework updates; many also benefit from larger radiators or underfloor heating for optimal efficiency. Installers assess your system during the survey and quote separately for these works.
