Storage and electric heater replacement across Ayrshire
Old storage heaters in Kilmarnock homes are removed and recycled as part of the replacement. For Kilmarnock landlords, swapping storage heaters for a heat pump is one of the more effective EPC improvements. Long Scottish heating seasons make efficiency in cold, damp weather the thing to design around.

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.
