How it works

How heat pump installation works

Step 1 - Contact us

To get started, contact one of our friendly team at The Heating People. We'll ask you a few simple questions about you and your property, and get you booked in for a discovery call with Heat Geek Elite installer, Liam.

Step 2 - Discovery call

We will call you as arranged on a date and time of your choosing, for a 'discovery call'. During this call, we will take some more detailed information about your home and what you're hoping to achieve from your heat pump.

Step 3 - Technical survey

During the technical survey, we will visit your home and carry out a full heat loss assessment as well as an assessment of your existing heating system.

Step 4: Proposal

Following the technical visit, we will provide you with a proposal for the installation of your heat pump. We will also provide you with a report containing all of the technical information we gathered and the calculations completed on site. When you are happy to proceed with the work, we will book you in for your installation date.

Step 5: Installation

On your installation day, your engineer will discuss the planned work, to ensure that everyone is happy with the plans. They will explain where they will need access to, and for how long, so that you can plan your day. Your engineer will put down floor coverings in all work areas and transit routes, so that you can rest assured that your home will be protected from any debris.

The follow up

We take pride in our work, and The Heating People will come back and check that everything is working as designed after your heat pump has been operating in winter conditions.

Is your home suitable for an air source heat pump?

Many homes in Manchester can be suitable for a heat pump, but the real answer depends on the design of the system rather than just the heat pump itself. Heat pump system design is far more critical than heating design for a gas heating system, and in many cases it is even more important than which heat pump is installed. A poorly designed system can lead to higher running costs, lower comfort and disappointing performance.

This is where The Heating People really excel. As Heat Geek trained designers, and in fact Heat Geek Elite, operating within the Heat Geek Assured installation scheme, we design heating systems to achieve the best possible efficiency for UK homes.

When we design a system for your home, we will advise on the best options for your property and give you the projected efficiency of the system before installation begins. That means you have the facts up front, so you can make a more informed decision about whether a heat pump is right for your home.

Boiler upgrade scheme

ASHP grant available for Manchester homes

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme Explained

Heat pump grants in Manchester

If you are considering an ASHP or air source heat pump in Manchester, the main support available is usually through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, which currently offers £7,500 towards the cost of installation.

The grant can make switching to low-carbon heating much more affordable, but good system design still matters just as much. A poorly designed air source heat pump system can lead to higher running costs, even with grant support in place.

That is why The Heating People focus so heavily on design. As Heat Geek Elite designers working within the Heat Geek Assured scheme, they can advise on the best options for your home and provide projected system efficiency before installation. That means you can understand both the value of the £7,500 ASHP grant and how well the system is likely to perform before moving forward.

New Vaillant 5Kw ASHP installation in Manchester

“I do not give out a five star rating easily, Liam and his team of Ben and Alfie earned this by being professional, courtious and great to deal with during the three days it took to install my heat pump.

I was to say the least somewhat pessmisic about going the heat pump route but during the two site surveys Liam coducted he gave me the cofidence to do so. As its very early days it would be wrong of me to sing the praises of my new Vaillant 5Kw heat pump just now but initial impressions are very favourable.

I would be happy for Liam to pass on my contact details should anybody wish to have more information regarding this transition.”

You were all friendly helpful and so professional.

I would highly recommend you to anyone your standard of workmanship and you took into account my preferences.with the installation. Thank you so much.”

Heat Pump Repair, Manchester

We had Liam and his team install a Vaillant heat pump at our property last week. Everyone involved was professional and pleasant, they took good care in putting protective mats down where they worked, and ended every day by tidying up. After the installation was complete Liam walked me through what all the components in the system are, and what all the settings mean. I had lots of questions about the system and Liam patiently answered each one in language a novice could understand.

We are so happy with our toasty warm house, and are glad we got there with a team who clearly have great pride in their work.

– Tom S

FAQ

Got a question about air source heat pumps?

Here are some of the things we’re most often asked by customers across Manchester. If you’re still not sure about something, just give us a ring, we’re always happy to help.

A heat pump installation starts with understanding your home, heating system and hot water demand. From there, the right air source heat pump can be recommended along with any upgrades needed to help the system run efficiently.

Many homes in Manchester can be suitable for an air source heat pump, but the right system depends on the property, insulation levels, radiators and hot water setup.

Many homeowners may be able to access government support through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, which can help reduce the upfront cost of a heat pump installation.

A modern air source heat pump is usually much quieter than people expect and is often compared to the sound of an outdoor fan or air conditioning unit. Noise levels still depend on the unit, where it is installed and how well the system is designed, so positioning matters.

In many cases, no. A domestic ASHP is often classed as permitted development, so planning permission is not usually needed as long as the installation meets the relevant limits and conditions. If your property is listed, in a sensitive area, or the installation falls outside those rules, you should check with the local council first.

Not always. Some homes need radiator upgrades, while others can keep part or all of the existing system depending on the heat loss calculations and system design.

Installation times can vary depending on the property and the work involved, but many projects are completed over a few days once the system design has been finalised.

 

What are the benefits of an air source heat pump?

The cost of an ASHP or air source heat pump in Manchester can vary depending on the size of the property, the system design and whether any upgrades are needed to radiators or hot water cylinders. For many homeowners, the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant can make the upfront cost far more affordable. The best way to understand the true cost is to start with a proper design, as that has a big impact on both installation cost and long-term running costs.

 

Not always. Some homes can keep some or even all of their existing radiators, while others may need upgrades to help an ASHP or air source heat pump run efficiently at lower flow temperatures. The best way to know is through proper heat loss and system design.
