Why this exists
Good heat pump installs start with good design.
Modern heat pumps from reputable manufacturers can all work well. What usually makes the bigger difference is the system design, the survey, the setup, and the installer’s ability to explain the choices clearly.
A good installer should be able to talk through heat loss, radiator sizing, pipework, controls, hot water, commissioning and aftercare in a way that makes sense. You do not need to become a heating engineer, but you should feel confident that the design has been properly thought through.
This is my own hand-picked installer list. Every installer here is included because I believe they are worth speaking to.
You still need to make your own decision. Any quote, contract, survey, design, installation, workmanship, aftercare or warranty is between you and the installer.
Why trust this list?
Built by someone who’s lived it, not just read about it.
Mick Wall created Energy Stats UK to share real-world home energy data, practical tools and plain-English guidance from his own electrified home in Sheffield.
This list is shaped by that same practical view: what good heat pump design looks like, what installers should be able to explain, and why measured performance matters more than marketing claims.

- Running Energy Stats UK since 2019.

What makes this different
Hand-picked, practical, and transparent.
Real-world context
The installer notes include comments based on interviews, public information, or personal interactions with the installers, so homeowners get more than just a company name and a link.
Clear customer offers
Where an installer has a customer discount, gift card, cashback, or other offer, it is shown clearly on the installer card.
The installer’s work is their own
I am prepared to recommend the companies listed here, but I do not guarantee the outcome of any installation. Homeowners should still compare quotes, ask questions, and check the proposed design.
