Air source heat pump installers in Stockport
Published and last updated 15 October 2026
Homeowners in Stockport 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 Stockport homes with up to three MCS-certified installers covering SK postcodes so you can compare quotes.
How much is the heat pump grant in Stockport?
The grant in Stockport 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.
Stockport is largely on mains gas, so most homes qualify for the £7,500 standard grant.
Do homes in Stockport suit a heat pump?
Stockport's mix of Victorian terraces in Edgeley and Heaton Norris and semis and detached homes in Cheadle, Bramhall, Hazel Grove and Marple generally suits heat pumps, and larger gardens make siting the outdoor unit straightforward.
Is there extra funding in Stockport?
Low-income Stockport households may qualify for the Greater Manchester Warm Homes: Local Grant through the GMCA Retrofit Portal.

Stockport Council. See our Greater Manchester Warm Homes: Local Grant guide for the current scheme.
