What does it cost in Northern Ireland?
Our guide range for an air source heat pump in Northern Ireland is £9,000–£12,600 per home. That is the UK range of £10,000–£14,000 (published figure) adjusted by a regional cost factor of 0.90 (our own estimate); figures are before VAT where the source states it. Every job is priced after survey; specification, access and the condition of the homes will move the figure.
How do we deliver it?
For heat pumps we insist on a heat loss calculation and emitter sizing. Undersized radiators are the most common reason residents say a heat pump does not work.
