Heat Pump Installer in Colchester.
Looking for a heat pump installer in Colchester? Kieran and the team at KJD Heating Services design, supply and install air source heat pumps for homes across Colchester, Essex and Suffolk — MCS accredited, Gas Safe registered, and Checkatrade approved.
Colchester’s local heat pump specialists.
KJD Heating Services has been installing heat pumps across Colchester and the surrounding Essex villages since 2018. We’re an MCS-accredited company, which means our installations qualify for the Government Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) grant of £7,500 — saving you a chunk of the upfront cost.
We don’t subcontract. When you book a survey, you get Kieran — fully qualified, BPEC Level 3 trained, and on the tools from your first visit through to commissioning and handover.
Why Colchester homeowners are switching to heat pumps.
Modern air source heat pumps work efficiently down to -15°C — well below anything we see in Essex — and they pair brilliantly with well-insulated homes and correctly sized radiators.
£7,500 BUS Grant
We handle the whole BUS application — your installer must be MCS accredited and ours is.
Lower Running Costs
Typical homes save £500–£1,200 per year vs oil or LPG heating.
Lower Carbon
Cut your home’s heating emissions by up to 70% when paired with green electricity.
Warmer Homes
More even heat distribution than radiators alone — no cold spots.
Future-Proof
Future-proof against the 2035 gas boiler ban and rising energy bills.
No Oil Tank
No flue, no fuel deliveries, no oil tank. Reclaim garden space.

Common Questions.
A modern ASHP runs at around 35–45 dB from your neighbour’s fence — quieter than a fridge. We always discuss positioning during the survey.
