Air source heat pump installation in Upchurch is giving homeowners a modern alternative to the oil and solid fuel heating still common in the village.
Upchurch is a rural village where many homes, from period cottages near the church to newer housing built on former brickfield and orchard land, sit off the mains gas network and rely on oil or solid fuel heating.
These off-gas properties are typically well suited to air source heat pumps, since replacing an oil boiler with a heat pump avoids the cost and disruption of a gas connection while cutting running costs significantly.
Swale Borough Council, through its Home Upgrade Grant scheme delivered with E.ON, specifically targets non-gas-heated homes like these, funding air source heat pumps and insulation for eligible lower-income households.wikipedia+1
