For Derry/Londonderry landlords, swapping storage heaters for a heat pump is one of the more effective EPC improvements. Derry/Londonderry is one of the main towns we cover in County Londonderry, alongside Coleraine and Limavady. That includes the BT48 and BT47 postcode districts.

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.
