Air source heat pump installers in Liverpool
Published and last updated 15 October 2026
Homeowners in Liverpool can get £7,500 off an air source heat pump through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, or £9,000 if the home is off the gas grid and heated by oil or LPG, as long as an MCS-certified installer fits it. We match Liverpool homes with up to three MCS-certified installers covering L postcodes so you can compare quotes.
How much is the heat pump grant in Liverpool?
The grant in Liverpool is the same as anywhere in England: £7,500 for an air-to-water heat pump, £9,000 for eligible off-gas homes until 31 March 2027, and £2,500 for air-to-air.
Liverpool is almost entirely on mains gas, so the standard £7,500 grant applies to most homes.
Do homes in Liverpool suit a heat pump?
Liverpool's Victorian terraces in Anfield, Kensington, Wavertree and Toxteth can take heat pumps with yard space for the unit, while large period villas around Sefton Park need careful design and city-centre flats may suit air-to-air.
Is there extra funding in Liverpool?
Liverpool's own Warm Homes: Local Grant is oversubscribed for 2026 to 2027, but you can register interest for the year starting 1 April 2027 through the GOV.UK referral portal.
