Heat Pumps in Reigate
Heat pump installation is the fitting of an air-source heat pump and associated hot water cylinder as a replacement for, or alternative to, a gas boiler, sized to the property's heat loss and often eligible for the government's Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) grant.
In Reigate, that covers Woodhatch, Reigate Heath, Meadvale, Wray Park, Colley. Reigate sits at the foot of the North Downs, with a historic town centre and a number of well-established residential areas featuring substantial Victorian, Edwardian and interwar houses. Its position near the Surrey Hills National Landscape (formerly AONB) shapes planning policy for parts of the borough.

Property styles in Reigate
Reigate has a strong stock of larger detached and semi-detached Victorian and Edwardian houses, along with mock-Tudor interwar properties, many of which suit generously proportioned rear and wraparound extensions or double-storey additions.
Planning considerations
Reigate & Banstead Borough Council is the local planning authority. The historic town centre is a conservation area, and parts of the borough fall within the Surrey Hills National Landscape (National Landscape, formerly AONB), which brings additional design and landscape considerations for extensions and new structures.

FAQs
Heat Pumps in Reigate: FAQs
Do you provide heat pumps across all of Reigate?
Yes, we cover the RH2 postcode area in full, including Woodhatch, Reigate Heath, Meadvale, Wray Park, Colley.
Will I need to replace my radiators for a heat pump?
Often, yes — heat pumps run most efficiently at lower flow temperatures than a gas boiler, so existing radiators are sometimes undersized for the new system. We assess this during the heat loss survey and specify any radiator or underfloor heating changes needed.
What is the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) grant?
It's a government grant offering a fixed contribution toward the cost of installing an air-source or ground-source heat pump in England and Wales. Eligibility depends on the property and installer, so we advise on the likely position but can't guarantee an award.
Does the Surrey Hills National Landscape designation affect extensions in Reigate?
For properties within the designated area, additional weight is given to landscape character and visual impact in planning decisions. We check whether your property falls within the boundary during feasibility.
