Air-to-air heat pumps in Camden Town
London's dense streets hold heat overnight, so top-floor flats and loft rooms often stay warm long after sunset. Ask at your Camden Town survey whether the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant could apply to your home.
Homes in Camden Town on electric, oil or LPG heating are the ones most likely to benefit from an air-to-air heat pump. Camden Town sits around 3 miles from central London, inside our London area. Homes in NW1 are all within our coverage.
Prices in Camden Town
For Camden Town, expect roughly £3,895 to £15,095 for 2–5 rooms, VAT included, adjusted for typical London rates. That is above the UK middle, mainly because labour and access cost more in London. The biggest variables are the pipe route, access for the outdoor unit and the state of the consumer unit, all of which the survey settles. As an example, the Small home option (three or four rooms heated and cooled) would typically be £5,845–£9,845 here.
Two rooms
Living room and main bedroom on one outdoor unit.
Small home
Three or four rooms heated and cooled.
Whole home
Five or more rooms, sized to replace the existing heating.
Prices are shown before any Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant. The £2,500 air-to-air grant applies only to eligible homes in England and Wales, using an MCS-certified heat pump installed by an MCS-certified installer, who applies for the grant and deducts it from the price. We confirm eligibility, and which installer applies, before you commit.
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
Since 29 May 2025, England's permitted development rules allow larger outdoor units (up to 1.5 m³) and no longer require a 1 m gap to the boundary, provided the MCS 020(a) noise check is met. Listed buildings and pitched-roof installs still need permission.
If your home in Camden Town is replacing fossil fuel or electric heating, and no gas, oil or LPG boiler stays in use, an MCS-certified air-to-air heat pump may qualify for the £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, which the MCS-certified installer claims and deducts from the price.
The survey
A survey in Camden Town 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. Surveys in Camden Town cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare.
