We are very pleased with our heat pump and all aspects of the installation and service provided by Rural and Country. We wanted the hot water cylinder fitted in our bathroom and this meant space for all the pipe work was very tight. We were very impressed with the skilled work done by the plumbers in getting this difficult job done as we wanted. They worked very effectively as a team. The work took a week to complete and we were only without hot water for 4 days. Rural and Country have been very quick to respond whenever we have needed to contact them. We have no hesitation in recommending them.

We decided to make what is a major investment for us in a solar battery system with backup capability, for both long term cost savings and energy security reasons. We looked specifically at R&C as they had already completed a neighbours installation and they were happy with them, whilst the other installer we looked at, quoted nearly as much for a smaller roof mounted system - we already had an old thermal system on the roof and wanted a ground mount in our paddock instead. We went with R&C and from start to finish and post install support, they have been excellent. Between Anna and Mike an appropriate sized install was designed, the planning permission dealt with and the install team did a great job, including a repair on a minor mishap! Post install we had a dodgy CT clamp, which eventually packed in 8 months later and Tia got one of the team out to replace it, with no issues since. The system has been running since April last year and is actually generating 15-20% more than the original quote estimates. The EPS has kicked on two full day power cuts without issue. Cost savings over the long term are impossible to predict (but someone has to pay for Hinkley Point B and the National Grid upgrades and you know where that cost will ultimately land), but combined with an EV, EV overnight rates and a good export rate, we are basically running a 4 bed house and a high performance car for zero electric costs, so we're happy! Thoroughly recommend Rural and Country.

We are delighted with our Air Source Heat Pump which was installed by Rural and Country Energy a year ago this month. Everything we were promised is turning out to be 100 per cent accurate. Wonderful ambient temperature throughout the year and we are making substantial savings on our energy costs compared with our previous oil boiler system. The installation was trouble free and Rural and Country staff were very professional and always on hand to give expert advice. I would recommend this company unreservedly.

When my old gas boiler needed replacing, I was keen to move away from fossil fuels, however I had read and heard conflicting reports regarding Air Source Heat Pumps, and was rather sceptical that an installation in my property, using existing radiators, would work. I contacted Rural & Country Energy, and a home visit was arranged. The information and advice I received was most helpful, and the company seemed to have many years of experience installing these systems. With renewed confidence I decided to go ahead, and I am so glad I did! The service I received from this company was excellent. The lads who carried out the installation in my property were polite and considerate, and their workmanship neat and tidy. The new system has given me plenty of hot water, along with a bungalow that is much warmer than it has ever been, even during the sub-zero temperatures we experienced in winter. I can thoroughly recommend this company and their expertise!

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.
