Why Choose ElectriFusion Solutions in Wakefield

Wakefield's varied housing stock — from the detached properties of Sandal, Horbury, and Crigglestone to the growing new-build estates around Normanton and Pontefract — presents excellent opportunities for air source heat pump installation. ElectriFusion Solutions provides MCS-certified heat pump installation across all WF postcodes, with the full £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant available. Wakefield's position as a major retail, logistics, and public sector employer means a large proportion of owner-occupying professional and trades households — exactly the demographic that benefits most from heat pump installation. Lower running costs compared to gas, combined with the generous government grant, make the economics compelling for Wakefield homeowners currently running ageing gas boilers. As part of the West Yorkshire Combined Authority's ambitious sustainability agenda, Wakefield Council is actively supporting low-carbon heating transitions. Our MCS-certified status and comprehensive grant management service removes all administrative barriers, making the switch to a heat pump straightforward.

Why Switch to a Heat Pump

£7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme Grant

The UK Government's BUS grant of £7,500 is available for air source heat pumps. MCS certification — which we hold — is the essential requirement to claim it. We manage the entire application process.

300–400% Efficient Heating

For every unit of electricity a heat pump consumes, it produces 3–4 units of heat — compared to a gas boiler's 90% efficiency. This efficiency advantage means lower running costs even as electricity prices fluctuate.

0% VAT on Domestic Installations

Heat pump installations for domestic properties qualify for 0% VAT — the same zero-rate treatment as solar panels. This reduces the total installation cost by 20% compared to standard-rated work.

Local Installation

Sandal, Wakefield

4-bed 1980s detached home

9kW Samsung EHS Mono ASHP

A 1980s detached home in Sandal — one of Wakefield's most desirable residential areas — where the homeowners were replacing an ageing gas boiler and wanted to future-proof against rising gas prices. We installed a Samsung EHS Mono 9kW air source heat pump in the rear garden with connections to the existing wet central heating system, which required minor upgrades to two ground-floor radiators to maximise efficiency. The Wakefield property benefits from good west-facing rear aspect for heat pump siting. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme £7,500 grant reduced the upfront cost significantly, and the household is on track to save £1,340 per year versus their previous gas bills at current tariff levels.
