Heat Pump Installation by MCS & Heat Geek Expert | Central Plumbing & Heating
Are you considering a heat pump for your home but worried about efficiency and installation quality? You're not alone. Many homeowners invest in air source heat pumps, only to find they don’t perform as expected. The problem isn’t the technology—it’s poor installation.
At Central Plumbing & Heating, our co-founder Liam is one of only two Heat Geek Verified experts in the area and an MCS-certified heat pump installer. He specialises in bespoke heat pump designs that maximise efficiency, reduce energy costs, and provide long-term home heating solutions tailored to your property.
The Rise of Heat Pumps in the UK
Heat pump installations in the UK have grown significantly in recent years. In 2024, the UK recorded a 63% increase in hydronic heat pump sales, with 98,469 units sold—a record-breaking year for the sector. This surge was accompanied by a 15% rise in trained professionals completing heat pump qualifications, indicating a strong expansion in both market demand and workforce development.
Government initiatives have played a pivotal role in this growth. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) now offers £7,500 grants for MCS-certified installations, making heat pumps more accessible. In 2024, BUS applications surged, with August seeing 2,890 applications—more than double the number from the previous year. To meet this growing demand, an additional £50 million in funding has been allocated, increasing the total budget to £200 million.
Despite these advancements, challenges remain. Some homeowners face delays of up to six months for planning permission to install heat pumps, and high upfront costs continue to be a concern. To address this, innovative solutions such as heat pump subscription models are being explored, helping to make low-carbon heating more accessible to the wider public.
These trends highlight the importance of experienced professionals like Liam in ensuring heat pump installations are efficient, reliable, and tailored to each home’s needs. With increasing adoption rates, homeowners need to trust that their systems are installed by specialists who understand the intricacies of heat pump technology and are committed to long-term efficiency.
Why So Many Heat Pumps Underperform
Not all heat pumps are created equal. While heat pumps can be an efficient and cost-effective way to heat a home, poor design and installation can lead to inefficiency, higher running costs, and frustrated homeowners. Common complaints—such as heat pumps being too noisy, too expensive to run, or not heating homes properly—are almost always due to incorrect system design, not the technology itself.
