Storage and electric heater replacement in Greenock
For Greenock landlords, swapping storage heaters for a heat pump is one of the more effective EPC improvements. Scottish summers are mild, so most systems here are chosen first for efficient heating, with cooling for warm spells.
Flats and bungalows in Greenock that have never had gas are the usual candidates for replacing storage heaters. Our Renfrewshire and Inverclyde coverage takes in Greenock, about 15 miles from Paisley. That includes the PA15 and PA16 postcode districts.
Prices in Greenock
Storage and electric heater replacement in Greenock typically comes in at £3,145–£9,595 for 3–5 rooms including VAT, based on Central and Southern Scotland rates. It is a touch below the UK middle, as trade rates in Central and Southern Scotland tend to be. The biggest variables are the pipe route, access for the outdoor unit and the state of the consumer unit, all of which the survey settles. As an example, the Bungalow or house option (four rooms on one outdoor unit) would typically be £4,545–£7,295 here.

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.
