Air Source Heat Pump Installation in Hindley
Air Source Heat Pumps in Hindley
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme still pays up to £7,500 toward an ASHP install and plenty of WN2 homes qualify — we'll walk you through the paperwork on the survey. Heat pumps make particular sense in Hindley because the local housing stock — long rows of 2-up-2-down Victorian terraces and post-war semis toward Hindley Green — includes a fair share of larger detached and off-mains properties that pay a fortune for oil or LPG.

Hindley FAQs — air source heat pump installation
Is the outdoor unit noisy?+
Modern units are quieter than a fridge at 1m. We site them to comply with MCS 020 planning noise limits.
How long does the install take?+
Typically 3–5 days on site depending on radiator changes and cylinder location.
Do I still need a gas boiler as backup?+
No — a properly sized ASHP provides all heating and hot water. Some customers keep a boiler on standby if they already have one, but it's not required.
Am I eligible for the £7,500 BUS grant?+
Most owner-occupied homes with an EPC in date and no outstanding insulation recommendations qualify. We check this at survey.
Does an air source heat pump work in cold weather?+
Yes — modern units from Daikin, Mitsubishi and Vaillant work well below freezing. They just run a bit longer at low output to hold temperature.
