Air-to-air heat pumps in Burntwood
In the West Midlands, sizing for winter heating first and then checking summer cooling usually gives the best all-year system. Homes in Burntwood on electric, oil or LPG heating are the ones most likely to benefit from an air-to-air heat pump.
Ask at your Burntwood survey whether the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant could apply to your home. Burntwood lies roughly 25 miles from Stoke-on-Trent, and we cover it as part of Staffordshire. Homes in WS7 are all within our coverage.

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
England's rules let most houses fit an outdoor unit without a planning application, as long as the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions are met. Flats, listed buildings and roof-mounted units are treated differently.
If your home in Burntwood 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.
