Storage and electric heater replacement in Hawick
Old storage heaters in Hawick homes are removed and recycled as part of the replacement. In central and southern Scotland, heat pump heating is usually the main reason to install, especially in homes on electric heating.
Flats and bungalows in Hawick that have never had gas are the usual candidates for replacing storage heaters. We cover Hawick as part of the Scottish Borders, roughly 13 miles from Galashiels. Coverage includes TD9.

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
Scotland has its own permitted development rules for heat pumps and outdoor units, with stricter treatment of listed buildings and conservation areas. We check the current position for your property with you and, if needed, with the council.
