Storage and electric heater replacement in Leeds
Flats and bungalows in Leeds that have never had gas are the usual candidates for replacing storage heaters. Yorkshire summers are mostly mild, so efficient winter heating counts for as much as cooling.
Old storage heaters in Leeds homes are removed and recycled as part of the replacement. We cover Leeds and the rest of West Yorkshire, including Bradford and Huddersfield. We cover LS1, LS2, LS3, LS4, LS6 and LS13 and the streets around them.
Prices in Leeds
In Yorkshire and the Humber, our guide range for storage and electric heater replacement is £3,295–£9,945 for 3–5 rooms, including VAT. It is a touch below the UK middle, as trade rates in Yorkshire and the Humber tend to be. Quotes move with the length of the pipe run, where the outdoor unit can sit and how much electrical work the job needs. As an example, the Bungalow or house option (four rooms on one outdoor unit) would typically be £4,695–£7,545 here.
Small flat
Two or three rooms replacing storage heaters.
Bungalow or house
Four rooms on one outdoor unit.
Larger home
Five or more rooms or two outdoor units.
Prices are shown before any Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant. The £2,500 air-to-air grant applies only to eligible homes in England and Wales, using an MCS-certified heat pump installed by an MCS-certified installer, who applies for the grant and deducts it from the price. We confirm eligibility, and which installer applies, before you commit.
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
Since 29 May 2025, England's permitted development rules allow larger outdoor units (up to 1.5 m³) and no longer require a 1 m gap to the boundary, provided the MCS 020(a) noise check is met. Listed buildings and pitched-roof installs still need permission.
If your home in Leeds is replacing fossil fuel or electric heating, and no gas, oil or LPG boiler stays in use, an MCS-certified air-to-air heat pump may qualify for the £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, which the MCS-certified installer claims and deducts from the price.
The survey
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. A survey in Leeds 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.
