About Heat Pumps Leicester

Heat Pumps Leicester is built around one simple idea: homeowners deserve clear advice before making a major change to their heating. We serve Leicester and surrounding Leicestershire communities, helping people explore air source heat pumps, government grant options, solar panels and battery storage, and connecting them with vetted local partner installers.

What Heat Pumps Leicester Is

Heat Pumps Leicester is a local information and estimate service for homeowners in Leicester and Leicestershire who are thinking about an air source heat pump, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, solar panels or battery storage. We explain the technology in plain language, help you understand what your home may need, and connect you with vetted, MCS-certified partner installers who are local to or cover the county.

How It Works

1. Tell us about your home

Use the estimate form to describe your property, your current heating and what you are considering. It takes a couple of minutes and costs nothing.

2. We match you with vetted partners

Your enquiry goes to up to three partner installers that cover your area and have passed our vetting checks.

3. Compare and decide

Partners survey your home, explain the options and provide written quotations. You compare them and decide, with no obligation and no pressure.

Our Story

Heat Pumps Leicester started in Leicester in 2020, in the months after Covid, when many local homeowners began looking seriously at energy bills, insulation and lower-carbon heating. Before that, the people behind the service had spent years in the renewable energy and energy-saving installation sector, and that experience showed how much easier the right decision becomes when someone explains the options honestly first.

Since then we have worked alongside trusted installation companies across the Midlands, building a network of vetted, MCS-certified partners who are local to or cover Leicestershire. That is the foundation of what we do today: clear, practical information for homeowners, and introductions to installers we would be comfortable recommending to our own neighbours.

Why We Exist

Low-carbon heating is a major decision, and much of the information online is either sales-driven or hard to apply to a real Leicestershire home. We focus on honest explanations of costs, grants and suitability, and on heating design rather than equipment catalogues. If a heat pump is not the right answer for a property, we would rather say so than push a sale.

What We Do

We focus on air source heat pump installation, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, solar panels and solar battery storage. Each service has its own page so you can see exactly what is involved before you get in touch.

Where We Work

We are based around Leicester and serve Leicestershire, including Leicester, Wigston, Blaby, Syston, Loughborough, Narborough, Hinckley, Market Harborough, Melton Mowbray, and Coalville.

How We Work

Honesty Before Sales

We believe homeowners deserve realistic explanations about installation costs, running costs, grants and equipment suitability. If a property needs additional work or a different approach, that should be discussed openly.

Design Matters

The performance of a heat pump depends on the whole heating system. We value accurate assessments, appropriate equipment and careful consideration of radiators, hot water and controls.

Respect for Local Homes

Every property is someone's home, not simply another installation. We value clear communication about access, disruption, schedules and the practical details that affect everyday life.

Useful Long-Term Improvements

We prefer solutions that make sense for the household over unnecessary complexity. Our aim is to help customers understand the technology and make informed decisions about their home energy needs.

Our Partner Installers

The installations we talk about on this site are carried out by our network of vetted partner installers, all MCS-certified and local to or covering Leicestershire. Before a partner receives an enquiry we check their MCS certification, consumer code membership (RECC or HIES), insurance and local track record, and we remove partners that attract complaints. Partners may pay us a fee for introductions; this never changes the price you are quoted. Full details are in our Partner & Referral Disclosure.
