Guides

# Straight answers on underfloor heating and heat pumps.

No jargon and no sales spin. These guides are written by the same engineers who design and install retrofit underfloor heating and MCS air source heat pumps across Cheshire and South Manchester every week.

[

## The £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme Grant Explained

Who qualifies, what the grant covers, how the paperwork works and what a heat pump really costs once the grant is applied.

Read guide ](/guides/boiler-upgrade-scheme-grant)[

## Air Source Heat Pumps vs Gas Boilers

Running costs, radiators versus underfloor heating, noise, space and whether a Cheshire home is actually suited to a heat pump.

Prefer to see the work rather than read about it? Browse our [underfloor heating case studies](/case-studies) or the full [project gallery](/our-work).

## Still weighing up your options?

Send us the property details and we will tell you honestly what suits it. Underfloor heating quotations come back within 24 hours, heat pump quotations take 3 to 7 days because the heat loss calculation is done properly.
