Air-to-air heat pumps across County Antrim
We size every heat pump in Belfast for a cold winter day, then check the cooling side is right for summer. Homes in Belfast on electric, oil or LPG heating are the ones most likely to benefit from an air-to-air heat pump. Northern Ireland's mild, damp climate makes efficient heating and dehumidifying the main benefits for most homes.

Guide prices show VAT at 20%. HMRC treats most fixed air conditioners and air-to-air heat pumps installed in homes as energy-saving materials, zero-rated until 31 March 2027 when we supply and fit them. If your installation qualifies, your quote shows 0% VAT and a lower price. Servicing, repairs, cleaning and controls are charged at 20%.
Planning and permissions
Planning rules for outdoor units in Northern Ireland differ from Great Britain's, so we check your property with you and the council where needed.
The survey
A survey in County Antrim usually takes one to two hours. We measure the rooms, check the walls and the consumer unit, agree the outdoor unit position with you and photograph the pipe routes. The free survey is where the real price is set: room measurements, pipe and drain routes, electrical checks and the outdoor unit position, all written into your quote.
