Cut Your Energy Bills With Heat Pump Installation in Blackheath
Blackheath’s Trusted Heat Pump Specialists — SE3 and SE10
Tired of watching your gas bill climb every quarter? Thousands of homeowners across South East London have already made the move to heat pumps, and the results speak for themselves. Lower bills, warmer rooms, and a heating system built for the next 20 years rather than the last 20.
At Proton Energy, we have been designing and fitting renewable heating systems across Blackheath, Greenwich, and Lewisham long enough to know that every property is different. A period conversion in SE3 needs a completely different approach to a detached house backing onto the heath. We start every job with a proper survey, design a system around what your home actually needs, and price it honestly before any work begins.
Our engineers are MCS certified, which matters for two reasons. First, it means the quality of your heat pump installation in Blackheath is independently verified. Second, it is the only way to access the government’s £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant. We apply for that grant on your behalf — you keep the saving, we deal with Ofgem.
Why Choose an Air Source Heat Pump in Blackheath?
Lower Running Costs
Gas prices are not coming back down. A heat pump produces 3 to 4 units of heat per unit of electricity, and on a smart off peak tariff like Intelligent Octopus, those savings compound even further. Most Blackheath households notice a real difference within their first full winter.
Future Proof Your Home
The UK is phasing out gas boilers, and the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant will not be around forever. Getting your heat pump installation in Blackheath done now means lower running costs sooner and no last minute rush. A Proton Energy system installed today runs efficiently well into the 2040s.
No Boiler, No Problem
Most Blackheath homeowners do not need to replace their radiators or pipework when switching to a heat pump. Our engineers check your existing system during the survey and only recommend changes that make a genuine difference. Nothing unnecessary ever goes on your quote.
One System, All Year Round
Many of the heat pump systems we install across SE3 provide active cooling in summer as well as heating in winter. One outdoor unit replaces both your boiler and a separate air conditioning unit. As Blackheath summers get warmer, that flexibility becomes more valuable every year.
Quiet Enough for Conservation Streets
Our heat pumps run at under 30 dB(A) at 3 metres, quieter than a normal conversation. For the quieter residential roads and conservation areas across Blackheath, that matters. We carry out a full noise and positioning check on every site survey as standard.
Combine With Solar for Maximum Savings
Pairing a heat pump with solar panels means your panels power your heating directly during daylight hours, cutting running costs close to zero on sunny days. Proton Energy designs and installs complete solar and heat pump systems across Blackheath under one roof. It is the most cost effective home energy setup available right now.

What is involved in a heat pump installation in Blackheath?

How much does heat pump installation cost in Blackheath?<br />
Heat pump installation in Blackheath typically costs between £8,000 and £15,000 before the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, bringing most homeowners down to between £3,000 and £8,000 for a fully installed system. Proton Energy gives you a fixed price after your free survey with no hidden costs.
How long does heat pump installation take in Blackheath?<br />
Most heat pump installations in Blackheath are completed in two to three days for a standard property. Larger homes or those needing a full cylinder replacement may take one additional day, and we confirm the exact timeline in your quote.
Do I need to replace my radiators before getting a heat pump installed?<br />
In most cases, no. Proton Energy assesses your existing radiators during the survey and only recommends changes where they will make a genuine, measurable difference to your comfort and running costs.
Is my Blackheath home suitable for heat pump installation?<br />
The vast majority of Blackheath properties are suitable, including Victorian terraces, period conversions, and flats across SE3 and SE10. Our free site survey gives you a clear answer based on your specific home rather than a general assumption.
What heat pump brands do you install in Blackheath?<br />
Proton Energy installs Vaillant, Samsung, Mitsubishi, Riello, Invertech, and MAXA heat pumps, as well as Grant hybrid systems for homeowners transitioning away from gas gradually. We recommend the brand that best suits your property after survey, not the one with the best margin for us.
Can I combine solar panels with my heat pump installation in Blackheath?<br />
Yes, and it is one of the most cost effective upgrades a Blackheath homeowner can make. When your solar panels generate electricity during the day, your heat pump runs directly from that free power, cutting running costs significantly. Proton Energy installs complete solar and heat pump systems across Blackheath as a single integrated project.
What aftercare do you provide after installation?<br />
Proton Energy offers annual servicing, fault diagnosis, and repair for every heat pump we install across Blackheath and South East London. We also service systems installed by other companies, so if your existing heat pump needs attention, get in touch and we will arrange a visit.
