Why more homeowners in Aberdeen are considering heat pumps

Heat pumps are a low-carbon alternative to gas, oil or electric heating systems. Instead of burning fuel, they transfer heat from outside air or the ground into your home.

Modern systems are suitable for many property types found in Aberdeen, including:

  • Terraced homes
  • Semi-detached houses
  • Detached properties
  • Rural homes and cottages

Most homeowners comparing systems today are looking at air source heat pumps, although an installer can also advise whether a ground source or hybrid heat pump system may be suitable for your property.

New high-temperature heat pumps can also operate at higher water temperatures, meaning some homes may keep their existing radiators without major upgrades.

Heat pump grants available in Scotland

Government support has made switching to low-carbon heating more affordable across the UK.

Homeowners in Scotland may be eligible for funding through schemes such as Home Energy Scotland, which can provide grants and loans for heat pump installations, including a £7,500 grant. Support levels and eligibility depend on the property and household circumstances.

Heat pump adoption in Aberdeen

Across Scotland, 6,810 MCS-certified heat pumps were installed in 2025, according to MCS data.

This growing number of installations shows that many households across the wider Aberdeen region are already switching to low-carbon heating systems.

Typical installation costs

The cost of a heat pump depends on:

  • Property size
  • Insulation level
  • Radiator upgrades
  • Installation complexity

Air source heat pumps typically cost around £10,000 - £14,000 before grants, although final pricing varies by property. Government support can significantly reduce the upfront cost.

Planning permission in Aberdeen

Most domestic heat pump installations fall under permitted development and do not require planning permission.

However, approval may be required if:

  • The home is listed
  • The property is in a conservation area

Your installer will confirm whether any planning considerations apply to your home.
