Air Source Heat Pumps in Dunbar

Dunbar mixes historic harbour-side properties, Victorian villas along the seafront and modern estates inland. The town sits in one of the sunniest, driest pockets in Scotland but still gets serious easterly exposure on the coast — which changes how outdoor pipework, flue terminations and heat-pump units need to be specified.

MCS Certified and RECC member, we design and install air source heat pumps across Dunbar — including full Home Energy Scotland Grant support of up to £7,500 plus an interest-free loan. Every system is designed for genuine winter performance, not just to tick the grant box.

Travel from our Kelso base: 55 minutes via the A1.

Local considerations in Dunbar

  • Coastal salt-air exposure on harbour and seafront addresses — corrosion-aware components specified.
  • Modern inland estates are gas-fed and combi-friendly.
  • Strong holiday-let market means autumn pre-season servicing is in demand.
  • Older Victorian villas often have legacy gravity systems we upgrade to fully pumped.

What we'll do for you

  • MCS Certified — required for Home Energy Scotland Grant funding.
  • Heat-loss survey done properly before any quote.
  • Radiator and underfloor upgrades planned alongside where needed.
  • Quiet, modern outdoor units sited carefully.

Dunbar Air Source Heat Pumps FAQs

Do you cover Dunbar even though it's a fair drive from Kelso?+

Yes — we run dedicated East Lothian days that take in Dunbar, so EH42 work is scheduled efficiently rather than as a one-off long trip.

Should harbour-side Dunbar properties spec anything special?+

Yes — corrosion-resistant flue terminations and external pipework are well worth specifying on harbour-side EH42 properties. We do this as standard.

Will it actually keep my home warm in winter?+

Yes — modern units operate efficiently down to around -15°C. We size and design every system specifically for Scottish climate conditions.

Am I eligible for the £7,500 grant?+

Most Scottish homeowners qualify. We guide you through the Home Energy Scotland application as part of the quote.
