Storage and electric heater replacement in Holywood

In Northern Ireland, cooling is mostly needed in conservatories and glazed rooms, while efficient heating benefits the whole home. Old storage heaters in Holywood homes are removed and recycled as part of the replacement.

For Holywood landlords, swapping storage heaters for a heat pump is one of the more effective EPC improvements. Holywood lies roughly 6 miles from Bangor, County Down, and we cover it as part of County Down. We cover BT18 and the streets around them.

Prices in Holywood

Storage and electric heater replacement in Holywood typically comes in at £3,145–£9,595 for 3–5 rooms including VAT, based on Northern Ireland rates. That sits a little below the UK middle, reflecting typical Northern Ireland labour rates. Concealed pipework, access equipment for high walls and any electrical work are what push prices towards the upper figure. On our Northern Ireland figures, the Bungalow or house option (four rooms on one outdoor unit) is about £4,545–£7,295.

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

Northern Ireland has its own planning rules for outdoor units, and conservation areas and listed buildings need particular care. We confirm the position for your property before installation.
