How to Prepare Your Home for Heat Pump Installation

Check insulation and heat loss

Before choosing equipment, arrange a proper assessment of the property. Insulation, windows, room sizes, and existing heat emitters all affect the design.

Review radiators and controls

Some homes may need larger radiators or updated controls so the system can provide comfortable heat at efficient flow temperatures. Your installer should explain any recommended changes.

Plan access and the outdoor unit

Discuss delivery access, the outdoor unit location, noise considerations, pipe routes, drainage, and electrical requirements before work begins.

Prepare for hot water changes

Heat pump systems commonly use a hot water cylinder. Confirm where it will go, how much storage your household needs, and whether existing plumbing requires upgrades.
