Air Source Heat Pumps in Kelso

Kelso is our home town and the base of every van we run. The mix of Georgian townhouses around The Square, modern estates off Inch Road and farms out toward Sprouston means we see almost every kind of heating system in one postcode — gas combis, oil boilers, LPG installs and a growing number of heat pump retrofits.

MCS Certified and RECC member, we design and install air source heat pumps across Kelso — 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.

Local considerations in Kelso

Many properties around The Square and Bowmont Street are stone-built with limited loft space — flueing and condensate routing need careful planning.
Outlying farms and steadings (Sprouston, Stichill, Smailholm) are off the gas grid and rely on oil or LPG, which we install and maintain regularly.
Newer estates such as Pinnaclehill and Inch Road typically have system or combi gas boilers — straightforward swaps with same-day completion.
Hard water in parts of TD5 means scale management and filter housings are worth specifying on new installs.

What we'll do for you

MCS Certified — required for Home Energy Scotland Grant funding.
Heat-loss survey done properly before any quote.
