Storage and electric heater replacement in Perth
Flats and bungalows in Perth that have never had gas are the usual candidates for replacing storage heaters. In central and southern Scotland, heat pump heating is usually the main reason to install, especially in homes on electric heating.
For Perth landlords, swapping storage heaters for a heat pump is one of the more effective EPC improvements. Perth is one of the main towns we cover in Perth and Kinross, alongside Auchterarder and Blairgowrie. Homes in PH1 are all within our coverage.
Prices in Perth
For Perth, expect roughly £3,145 to £9,595 for 3–5 rooms, VAT included, adjusted for typical Central and Southern Scotland rates. It is a touch below the UK middle, as trade rates in Central and Southern Scotland tend to be. Concealed pipework, access equipment for high walls and any electrical work are what push prices towards the upper figure. On our Central and Southern Scotland 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
In Scotland, planning conditions for outdoor units depend on the property type and location; conservation areas and listed buildings need particular care.
The survey
A survey in Perth usually takes one to two hours. We measure the rooms, check the walls and the consumer unit, agree the outdoor unit position with you and photograph the pipe routes. At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote.
