Risk of dangerous leaks
More than 100,000 Kent homes are off the mains gas grid - that’s around 1 in 8.
If yours is one of them, there has never been a better time to consider upgrading to a heat pump.
The mild south-east climate helps one run efficiently, and the housing stock fits well - from Canterbury Victorian terraces, to Kent Downs oast houses.
Still on Oil? Why you should get a heat pump.
A heat pump isn't a replacement - it's a upgrade fit for the future.
No tank, no deliveries, no running out on a cold weekend.

For most oil homes, yes. Running costs are close to or better than oil today, oil prices swing (they doubled between January and March this year), and you qualify for the higher £9,000 grant.
Usually, yes. Protected landscapes and conservation areas can affect where the outdoor unit sits, so we check the planning position for your home before you commit.
