At Guscott Heating Services, we install air source heat pumps across Hempstead, providing reliable heating while helping you cut down on carbon emissions.
Hempstead is known for its generous detached and semi-detached family homes, many built with sizeable gardens and driveways during the late twentieth century, the kind of well-proportioned properties that suit an air source heat pump particularly well, since they typically have the outdoor space needed for the unit and existing radiator systems that can be adapted efficiently.
If you live in one of these Hempstead homes, whether close to Hempstead Valley Drive or in the ME7 postcode, you’ll know how much heating costs can add up. At Guscott Heating, we’ve been working with homeowners across the area to install modern air source heat pumps that bring real savings on energy bills.
We’re seeing customers cut their heating costs significantly, often by nearly two thirds. On top of that, there’s a government grant available right now to help with the cost. If your home runs on mains gas, you could get up to £7,500 towards an air source heat pump. If you’re on oil or LPG, that grant has recently increased to £9,000, paid directly to your installer and taken straight off your quote, so there’s nothing for you to claim yourself. That means you can make your home more energy efficient and more valuable, without the full upfront expense.
An air source heat pump isn’t just a short-term fix. It’s a smarter way to heat your home for the long term.

“I would give the team who installed headed by Sam Carne a 6 star rating if I could. Not only were they perfectly on time and with good workmanship, but they went above and beyond on every aspect of our full new heating installation. I would recommend them highly to anyone. Their service levels were an experience, not just a service. Thank you!”
Discover answers to some of the most common questions we have been asked by homeowners in Hempstead about heat pumps. Whether you’re considering installation, maintenance, or just want to learn more about this efficient heating solution, we’ve got you covered.
Yes. Hempstead’s mix of detached and semi-detached homes with gardens and driveways is generally well suited to heat pump installation, and we assess each property individually to confirm the right setup.
Yes. As of 21st July, homes on oil or LPG can now claim £9,000 towards an air source heat pump installation, up from £7,500. If your home is on mains gas, the standard £7,500 grant still applies. The grant is paid directly to your installer and deducted from your quote, so there’s nothing for you to claim yourself.
In most cases, no, as air source heat pumps fall under permitted development rights for the majority of residential properties in England.
In most cases, yes. For older properties, a hybrid system pairing a heat pump with your existing boiler can be a practical first step.
Very much so. Off-grid homes are often hit hardest by price swings in oil and LPG markets. A heat pump runs on electricity, increasingly from renewable sources, and with the £9,000 grant plus 0% VAT on renewable installations, it’s worth a fresh look even if you ruled it out before.
