Better Planet were excellent: Very good preparation and effective installation in December 2022 by courteous staff well managed by Stephanie and Tomas. They were particularly helpful in our response to unreasonable strictures about noise from our local planning department. The system is very quiet and we don't think our neighbours have heard it at all. My wife still loves it three years later.

I have just had a solar PV system with battery installed by Better Planet, and I can recommend them very highly. I chose them because they were local to me in Hertfordshire, and although we got off to a slow start, they proved to be a very professional and responsive supplier. Despite the current problems with the international supply chain, they managed to install the system with very little delay. Stephanie, the installation co-ordinator, did an amazing job in sourcing the panels, inverter and battery, and Mark and Peter managed the installation perfectly; even providing help and support with the app that controls the installation. The system is now running well, and performing as expected.

We were recommended to Better Planet by friends nearby as a family firm with great customer service. They were right. From Oliver’s initial visit to Peter’s careful survey and Thomas, Tom and Peter’s installation it could not have gone more smoothly. Jack and Stephanie visited as well. A totally professional and integrated family firm. All the members of the team were a pleasure to have in the house. System working very well. Thoroughly recommend.

We decided to make our contribution to the global fight against climate change by replacing our gas boiler with an air source heat pump (ASHP) for heating our home and domestic water. Being a novice in this technology we had to learn and educate ourselves on this method, thankfully many official sites provide enough information for this. We contacted Better Planet company in between 4 other installers, including big electricity providers that are also operating in the ASHP installation business. The reason we selected Better Planet is because they were the only company with a well informed and rational proposal for our home which is slightly more complex than average The complexity stems from the fact that we already have a Solar Thermal system to heat our water (installed more than 15 years ago) which is providing a descent service in covering 3/4 of our hot water needs so, we didn't want to abandon and decommission it. The engineers of the company accepted the challenge to combine both ASHP and ST systems in one hot water cylinder The experience was fabulous! First a heat loss survey assessed precisely the heating needs of the house. After a few exchanges to understand the technical challenges, we concluded to the most appropriate system well adapted to the heat loss survey and not oversized. This is actually an essential part of the project if one wishes not only to heat the house well but also economically. For this reason, proposing at the start of the conversation a heat loss survey should be considered as a mark of quality of the company! During the installation which took approximately one week we have been amazed by the technical expertise, experience and professionalism of all the engineers and technicians involved. It is so comforting to see people think first and make a well-informed and common-sense decision before acting! And always consulting with us with a level of communication adapted to our understanding (from both office and field personnel). The final result looks like a piece of plumbing art, heating perfectly and constantly our house effortlessly and efficiently. Thank you Better Planet! We need serious companies like you to convince more people to make the so much needed leap to an ecologically sustainable future. Wish all success Emmanuel Xystrakis and Efterpi Papouli

Frequently asked questions

How do I know you’re properly qualified and certified to install heat pumps?

We are MCS‑certified and registered with an approved consumer protection/competent person scheme, which is essential for quality assurance and to access grants like the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS).

Can you tell me if a heat pump is actually suitable for my home?

We carry out a detailed home assessment, including property type, insulation levels, existing heating system and available outdoor space, to confirm whether a heat pump is a good fit.

What type and size of heat pump will you recommend for my property, and why?

We design the system using a heat‑loss calculation for your home, then match the correct kW size and model (for example, air‑source vs ground‑source) so it runs efficiently and reliably.

What will the full installation cost be, and what’s included in your quote?

Our fixed quote clearly lists the heat pump, cylinder, controls, labour, scaffolding (if needed), electrical work and any radiator or pipework upgrades, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.

Can you help me access government grants like the Boiler Upgrade Scheme?

Yes, as an MCS installer we can confirm your eligibility, apply for the BUS grant (worth up to £7,500) on your behalf and deduct it directly from your quote.

How much disruption should I expect during installation, and how long does it take?

A typical air‑source heat pump installation takes around 2–5 days, and we’ll agree locations for the indoor and outdoor units, manage any planning considerations and keep you informed each day.

Will I need to replace my radiators or upgrade anything else in my home?

After the heat‑loss survey, we’ll advise if any radiators, pipework, electrics or hot‑water cylinder need upgrading so the system can run efficiently at lower flow temperatures.

How noisy is the outdoor unit and where will it be installed?

Modern heat pumps are designed to be quiet and must meet UK noise regulations; we’ll position the unit to minimise any impact on you and your neighbours and comply with local planning rules.

What warranties, servicing and aftercare do you provide?

You’ll get manufacturer warranties on the heat pump plus our workmanship guarantee, and we offer ongoing servicing and support to keep your system performing at its best.

What running costs and savings can I realistically expect compared to my current boiler?

We’ll estimate your likely annual running costs and potential savings based on your current fuel type, insulation level and tariffs, using real‑world performance data rather than lab figures.
