Air-to-air heat pumps in Paisley
We size every heat pump in Paisley for a cold winter day, then check the cooling side is right for summer. In central and southern Scotland, heat pump heating is usually the main reason to install, especially in homes on electric heating.
Homes in Paisley on electric, oil or LPG heating are the ones most likely to benefit from an air-to-air heat pump. As well as Paisley itself, our Renfrewshire and Inverclyde coverage takes in Greenock, Newton Mearns and the towns around them. Homes in PA1 and PA2 are all within our coverage.
Prices in Paisley

Labour rates in Central and Southern Scotland keep this slightly under the national middle. 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. On our Central and Southern Scotland figures, the Small home option (three or four rooms heated and cooled) is about £4,095–£6,845.

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
Outdoor units on Scottish homes can often be installed without a planning application, but the conditions differ from England's, so we confirm the rules for your property at survey.
The survey
At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote. 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.
