We just wanted to send a huge thank you to everyone at R F Blounts from a lovely warm house in Irthlingborough 😊 Our boiler recently died, right in the middle of the cold spell. There of hundreds of heating engineers out there, how do you choose which one to call for help? We decided to contact a long establishment family business with a great reputation, R F Blounts. Initially we dealt with Becky in the office, she was very helpful and got an engineer to us really quickly. Andy swiftly diagnosed the problem and even managed a temporary fix. They immediately got us a quote sorted for the parts and fitting. They also pointed out that the value of this quote was 1/3rd of the price of a new boiler. Our boiler was 21yrs old and had been repaired before, what do we do 🤔🤔 They passed us over to John who quoted for a replacement boiler, explaining that it was a lot more efficient than our failing one, and the new one comes with a 10yr warranty (provided it is serviced annually). I quickly arranged for 2 more quotes, these confirmed that the price from Blounts was fair. We made the choice to go for the new boiler. They quickly got one ordered for us, we arranged a date for it to be fitted. We now have a fabulous new boiler, it looks neat, as does the installation work. I was more than happy with the engineers Arron and Alfie, both were polite, informative, helpful and likeable. So, it’s a huge thank you from Pete and Jo We would 100% recommend RF Blounts to anyone with boiler, heating or plumbing issues.

Had a new kitchen tap fitted today and all was efficient and perfect. The young engineer who came to fit it was outstandingly polite and efficient, thank you and I’m sorry I didn’t catch your name so I could give you a mention. Kind regards Steve from Yardley Hastings

Our central heating boiler stopped working, so we called Blount and they arrived within a couple of hours.A new part had to be ordered, so we had to wait a day for it. Next day bright and early the engineer arrived and replaced the faulty part and all fixed. The two engineers that visited were fantastic, great guys. A good service especially a couple of days before Christmas. Thank you all.

Best plumbers merchant in kettering. I wish I had caught the name of the guy who served me today. Because he was the most helpful man to ever work at a plumbing suppliers. He solved a problem that 5 other merchants in kettering couldn't. Save yourself 3 hours driving around looking for parts, and just go here

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.
