Air Source Heat Pumps in Eyemouth

Eyemouth is the busiest fishing port we cover, with a tightly packed harbour-side housing stock and serious salt-air exposure. That changes how installs are specified — corrosion-resistant fittings, careful flue placement and frost-protection planning all matter more than they do inland.

MCS Certified and RECC member, we design and install air source heat pumps across Eyemouth. Most of our customers access the Home Energy Scotland Grant (currently up to £7,500) plus an interest-free loan on top — we handle the entire application as part of the quote. Crucially, every system is sized from a proper room-by-room heat-loss survey, not a back-of-the-envelope kW figure, so it actually performs through a Borders winter rather than just ticking a grant box.

Heat-pump performance in Eyemouth hinges on three things we take seriously: heat-loss accuracy, emitter sizing and outdoor-unit siting. TD14 properties vary from solid-stone walls to modern timber-frame builds, and each needs a different design temperature and flow strategy. We carry out the survey ourselves rather than outsourcing, so the design that lands in your inbox is the one we'll actually install.

Travel from our Kelso base: 50 minutes via the A1.

Local considerations in Eyemouth

  • Tight harbour-side terraces mean access planning for boiler deliveries and scaffolding.
  • A high proportion of older properties have legacy back-boilers ripe for combi conversion.
  • Many holiday lets near the harbour want pre-season annual servicing locked in early.
  • Salt-air exposure means we specify corrosion-resistant external pipework and flue terminations.

What we'll do for you

  • MCS Certified — required for Home Energy Scotland Grant funding and the £7,500 grant top-up.
  • Full room-by-room heat-loss survey before any quote — never a generic kW figure.
  • Radiator upsizing and underfloor planning costed in alongside the pump itself.
  • Quiet, modern outdoor units sited carefully for noise, airflow and planning compliance.
  • Hot water cylinder and buffer tank sizing matched to occupancy, not just floor area.
  • Commissioning data and MCS certificate issued so the grant funds are released without delay.

Eyemouth Air Source Heat Pumps FAQs

Do you cover Coldingham and St Abbs?+

Yes — both are part of our Eyemouth round, including holiday-let servicing along the coast.

Does salt air really damage boilers in Eyemouth?+

Salt air doesn't damage indoor boiler internals, but it does eat external flue components, condensate routing and outdoor pipework if you spec the wrong materials. We use corrosion-resistant components as standard for TD14 jobs.

Will it actually keep my home warm in a Scottish winter?+

Yes — modern Vaillant and Mitsubishi units operate efficiently down to around -15°C. We size and design every system specifically for Scottish climate conditions and check radiator output room-by-room.

Am I eligible for the £7,500 grant?+

Most owner-occupied Scottish homes qualify. We confirm eligibility and guide you through the Home Energy Scotland application as part of the quoting process at no extra cost.

Do I need new radiators?+

Sometimes one or two need upsizing — rarely the whole house. We tell you exactly which (and the cost) inside the written quote, before you commit.
