What's different about Liverpool
Labour rates in the North West are below the national average, and much of the housing stock is semi-detached or terraced, which usually means a mid-size unit rather than the largest.
Installers quoting in Liverpool usually cover Wirral, St Helens, Southport, Widnes and Runcorn. If an installer doesn't routinely work in your postcode, travel and return-visit costs tend to be built into the price — which is exactly why we match on postcode first.
What moves your quote up or down
- Heat loss calculation — A room-by-room heat loss survey sets the unit size. An oversized unit costs more to buy and more to run.
- Radiators and pipework — Heat pumps run at lower flow temperatures, so some radiators may need to be larger.
- Hot water cylinder — Most homes need a new cylinder, plus somewhere to put it.
- Insulation — Loft and cavity work is often recommended first, and changes both the unit size and running cost.
