Air-to-air heat pumps in Kidsgrove
Homes in Kidsgrove on electric, oil or LPG heating are the ones most likely to benefit from an air-to-air heat pump. Away from the coast, West Midlands summers can turn hot quickly, and bedrooms under the roof are the first to suffer.
We size every heat pump in Kidsgrove for a cold winter day, then check the cooling side is right for summer. Our Staffordshire coverage takes in Kidsgrove, about 6 miles from Stoke-on-Trent. We cover ST7 and the streets around them.

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 Kidsgrove 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
We book surveys in Kidsgrove at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards. On a survey in Kidsgrove 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.
