Heat Pumps Done Properly
A good heat pump installation starts with proper design. That means accurate heat loss calculations, suitable radiators or underfloor heating, sensible flow temperatures and controls that are set up correctly. When the design is right, a heat pump can keep your home consistently warm without needing to blast out high temperatures like a traditional boiler.
Matt Poulter Plumbing & Heating provides air source heat pump installations, servicing and optimisation across Northamptonshire, Bedfordshire and surrounding areas.

Boiler Upgrade Scheme Grant
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme currently offers £7,500 towards eligible air source heat pump installations in England and Wales. For homes using oil or LPG, Energy Saving Trust reports that support is set to increase to £9,000 from July 2026 until March 2027.
As an MCS registered installer, we can help explain the process and include eligible grant support within your heat pump quote.
Ignore The Heat Pump Myths
Most heat pump problems come from poor design, not the technology itself. Flow temperatures, system sizing, radiator output and controls all matter. A correctly designed heat pump runs steadily at lower temperatures, keeping the home consistently warm rather than cycling on and off like a boiler.
That is why we focus on proper design, correct installation and optimisation after the system is running.
