Air Source Heat Pumps in Leigh
Heat pumps make particular sense in Leigh because the local housing stock — red-brick terraces around Leigh town centre and newer estates toward Pennington — includes a fair share of larger detached and off-mains properties that pay a fortune for oil or LPG. Being 6 miles south-east of Wigan and the largest town in the borough after wigan itself, Leigh has a growing number of homeowners looking at air source as part of a wider retrofit — new radiators, better hot-water cylinder and improved insulation all in one go.

Leigh FAQs — air source heat pump installation
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.
