UK Alternative Energy was absolutely fabulous our Vaillant 7kw ashp and 210L cylinder was installed with real professionalism Alex the plumber and Graham the electrician done a perfect quality job and Dan the boss has real knowledge I just can't fault them the install has a heat geek guarantee to perform to a percentage level you will pay a bit more for their install but it is certainly worth it. Our home is now very comfortable and cosy. Also well done for vaillant for producing a brilliant app that is easy to use and adjust the settings particularly weather compensation without having to dive into the senso controller and ignore what other people say about heat pumps as they do work if the install is done correctly

Great installer would highly recommend :) Really pleased with my install. Very friendly professional staff, who take a great deal of pride in their work. My installation was accommodating and everything was explained to me clearly and in a way that was easy to understand.

Great service from start to finish. They took care of all the necessary paperwork to gain approval from my local electricity supplier. The installation date was convenient, and the team arrived when promised. Due to the nature of my roof design, it took a second day to complete the installation, but I was kept fully in the loop. Unfortunately, again due to the roof design, the system did not work as advertised. I was not even aware there was an issue until the team turned up 2 days after installing the solar EV panels to reconfigure the wiring. Everything is now sorted. Overall I was very impressed with the whole process, from initial design review, installation and aftercare support. I would especially like to thank Ben, John and Bella for all their hard work. Much appreciated.

We've recently had panels and a battery installed and we're really impressed by all the team. At every stage they were friendly, professional and communicative. When the day came for installation the team of 6 all knew exactly what their job was, worked hard and well together, and were polite and friendly. The handover was thorough and understandable. We'd have no problem recommending this company

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.
