Quick answer

What does a heat pump installer do, and what grant can you claim?

A heat pump installer sizes, fits and commissions air-source or ground-source systems, usually alongside larger radiators or underfloor heating. Installed cost typically runs £6,000–£14,000. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme pays toward an air-source unit in England and Wales, but only where the installer is MCS-certified — and the installer applies for the grant, so you never handle the money yourself.

JobHeat pump installerGas engineerPlumber
Air-source heat pump install✅ Required for grant⚠️ Only if MCS❌ Not enough
Claim the Boiler Upgrade Scheme✅ MCS only❌ Unless MCS❌ No
Replace a gas boiler like-for-like⚠️ If Gas Safe✅ Recommended❌ Illegal
Upsize radiators for low flow temp✅ Routine✅ Yes✅ Yes
Room-by-room heat-loss survey✅ Expected⚠️ Sometimes❌ Rare

Any installer quoting a heat pump without a room-by-room heat-loss calculation is guessing. Ask to see it before signing — an oversized unit short-cycles, runs expensively and is the most common cause of regret with this technology.

Heat Pump Installer workmanship in Hemel Hempstead

Heat Pump Installer terms explained — Hemel Hempstead glossary

Microgeneration Certification Scheme(MCS)
The certification standard for small-scale renewable installers. MCS registration is the precondition for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme and for most manufacturer warranties — an uncertified installation forfeits both, and cannot be retro-certified afterwards.
Boiler Upgrade Scheme(BUS)
The government grant toward replacing a fossil-fuel boiler with a heat pump in England and Wales. Applied for by your MCS-certified installer and deducted from the quoted price, so it appears as a discount rather than a payment to you.
PAS 2035
The retrofit standard governing how a whole dwelling is assessed before energy measures are installed. It exists to stop a heat pump being fitted to a house that will never hold the heat long enough to justify it.
Seasonal Coefficient of Performance(SCOP)
Heat delivered per unit of electricity across a whole heating season. Flow temperature drives it — the lower the system can run, the better it performs, which is why radiator sizing and heat pump efficiency are the same conversation.
