Storage and electric heater replacement across County Antrim
Old storage heaters in Belfast homes are removed and recycled as part of the replacement. Flats and bungalows in Belfast that have never had gas are the usual candidates for replacing storage heaters. In Northern Ireland, homes on oil or electric heating can look at air-to-air systems for efficient warmth.

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
Planning rules for outdoor units in Northern Ireland differ from Great Britain's, so we check your property with you and the council where needed.
