Storage and electric heater replacement in Annan

For Annan landlords, swapping storage heaters for a heat pump is one of the more effective EPC improvements. In central and southern Scotland, heat pump heating is usually the main reason to install, especially in homes on electric heating.

Old storage heaters in Annan homes are removed and recycled as part of the replacement. Annan is about 15 miles from Dumfries and falls within our Dumfries and Galloway coverage. Postcode districts we cover here include DG12.

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.
