Air-to-air heat pumps in Perth
Homes in Perth on electric, oil or LPG heating are the ones most likely to benefit from an air-to-air heat pump. Mild Scottish summers mean cooling matters most in conservatories, lofts and rooms with large windows.
We size every heat pump in Perth for a cold winter day, then check the cooling side is right for summer. We cover Perth and the rest of Perth and Kinross, including Auchterarder and Blairgowrie. Homes in PH1 are all within our coverage.

That sits a little below the UK middle, reflecting typical Central and Southern Scotland labour rates. Quotes move with the length of the pipe run, where the outdoor unit can sit and how much electrical work the job needs. Typical Small home work (three or four rooms heated and cooled) lands around £4,095–£6,845 in this area.

Living room and main bedroom on one outdoor unit.
Small home
Three or four rooms heated and cooled.

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme does not cover Scotland; Home Energy Scotland can tell you what support is available.
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
In Scotland, planning conditions for outdoor units depend on the property type and location; conservation areas and listed buildings need particular care.
The survey
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. On a survey in Perth the engineer looks at room size, glazing, the route for pipes and drains, the electrics and where the outdoor unit can sit quietly, then the written quote follows.
