Heat Pump Installation in Selby
Selby's mix of newer housing developments and established properties makes it well suited to air source heat pump technology. Modern homes in areas like Brayton and Thorpe Willoughby often have the insulation levels needed for optimal heat pump efficiency, while older properties near Selby Abbey can be upgraded alongside installation.
YEERS provides MCS certified heat pump installation across the entire Selby district, including Sherburn in Elmet, Tadcaster, and surrounding villages. Our systems qualify for the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, and we handle the complete application process.
£7,500 Grant Available
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant covers a substantial portion of heat pump installation costs. Combined with lower running costs and pairing with solar panels for free daytime electricity, heat pumps represent a smart long-term investment for Selby homeowners.

Air source heat pumps in Selby: what's different about YO8
Selby sits in the North Yorkshire Council area, and the YO8 postcode covers two very different heating markets. Selby town itself (YO8 3, YO8 4) is largely on the mains gas grid. The villages ringing it — Cawood, Ryther, Kelfield, Stillingfleet, Bolton Percy, Temple Hirst, Hirst Courtney and the parishes out towards Drax — are substantially off the gas grid and heated by oil or bulk LPG. That single fact changes the economics completely, and it is why our air source heat pump installers treat rural Selby as a priority area rather than a fringe one.
Oil vs LPG vs air source: running costs for a Selby property
Modelled on a detached four-bedroom Selby-area home with an 18,000 kWh annual space and water heat demand — typical of a 1930s–1970s village property after loft top-up insulation.
| Heating system | Assumed efficiency | Fuel used | Est. annual cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kerosene oil boiler | 88% | 20,450 kWh @ ~7.5p | ~£1,534 |
| Bulk LPG boiler | 88% | 20,450 kWh @ ~10.5p | ~£2,147 |
| Air source heat pump (standard tariff) | SCOP 3.2 | 5,625 kWh @ ~26p | ~£1,463 |
| Air source heat pump (specialist heat-pump tariff) | SCOP 3.2 | 5,625 kWh @ ~13–17p blended | ~£730–£960 |
Against LPG the saving is decisive; against oil it depends almost entirely on the electricity tariff you move to after commissioning — heat-pump tariffs are import products and change regularly, so treat the range above as indicative and check current rates before you commit. Capital cost is where Selby households gain most: the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant is deducted by us as the MCS-certified installer before you pay, and domestic heat pump installations carry 0% VAT until 31 March 2027 (5% thereafter, per HMRC VAT Notice 708/6). If you add solar and export the surplus, Octopus Outgoing Fixed pays a flat 12p/kWh (since 1 March 2026), while time-of-use export tariffs can peak higher.
Older Selby housing stock: emitters and heat loss
Solid-brick Victorian terraces off Gowthorpe and Micklegate, converted farm buildings around Hemingbrough and Barlby, and 1960s village stock all share the same constraint — they were plumbed for 70–75°C flow temperatures. A heat pump wants 45–50°C. That means a room-by-room heat-loss calculation (MCS/CIBSE), not a boiler-swap estimate.
| Property type | Fabric | Likely design flow temp | Radiators needing upsizing |
|---|---|---|---|
| Victorian solid-brick terrace (Selby town) | 225mm solid wall, suspended timber floor | 50°C | 60–80% |
| Farmhouse / barn conversion (Cawood, Ryther) | Mixed solid + later cavity | 50°C | 50–70% |
| 1960s–70s village semi (Riccall, Brayton) | Unfilled or filled cavity | 45–50°C | 30–50% |
| Post-2000 estate (Thorpe Willoughby, Camblesforth) | Insulated cavity | 45°C | 0–20% |
Grid and consenting notes for Selby
The distribution network operator for the whole Selby district is Northern Powergrid (Yorkshire). Single-phase properties take most domestic heat pumps under a G98 connect-and-notify; larger units, or a heat pump alongside an EV charger and battery, may need a G99 application, which we submit on your behalf. Planning permission is rarely required for a rear or side unit under permitted development, but properties in the Cawood, Church Fenton and Monk Fryston conservation areas, and listed farmhouses across the district, need a check with North Yorkshire Council before siting.
YEERS is a Hull-based, MCS-certified installer covering Hull, East Yorkshire, North Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, with a 10-year workmanship warranty on every installation. Request a Selby survey through the quote form and we'll return a room-by-room heat-loss figure and a grant-applied price.
Frequently asked questions
How much does an air source heat pump cost in Selby after the grant?
For a typical Selby-area three or four-bedroom home, a full air source heat pump installation including cylinder and emitter upgrades usually lands between £11,000 and £16,000 before support. The £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant is claimed by us as the MCS-certified installer and deducted from your invoice, and domestic heat pumps carry 0% VAT until 31 March 2027 (5% after that). Net cost is therefore commonly £3,500–£8,500. Figures indicative — verified August 2026; your survey price depends on heat loss and how many radiators need upsizing.
Is a heat pump cheaper to run than oil in a Selby village?
Against bulk LPG, almost always. Against kerosene oil it is close on a standard electricity tariff — roughly £1,463 a year versus £1,534 for an 18,000 kWh demand — and clearly cheaper on a specialist heat-pump electricity tariff, at around £730–£960. The deciding factors are the SCOP your system actually achieves (design flow temperature matters more than the badge on the unit) and whether you switch tariff after commissioning. Import tariff rates move, so check current prices. Indicative — verified August 2026.
Which villages around Selby are off the gas grid?
Large parts of the rural YO8 area have no mains gas connection, including Cawood, Ryther, Kelfield, Stillingfleet, Bolton Percy and the parishes towards Drax such as Temple Hirst and Hirst Courtney. These properties typically run on kerosene oil or bulk LPG, which is exactly where an air source heat pump gives the strongest saving and where the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant does the most work. Selby town centre itself is mostly on gas.
Will my existing radiators work with a heat pump in an older Selby property?
Some will, many won't. Older Selby stock — solid-brick terraces in the town, farmhouse and barn conversions in the villages — was sized for 70–75°C boiler flow, while a heat pump runs at 45–50°C. In a Victorian solid-wall property expect 60–80% of radiators to need upsizing; on a post-2000 estate house it may be none. We produce a room-by-room MCS heat-loss calculation at survey so the emitter schedule is priced properly rather than discovered mid-installation.
Do I need planning permission or a DNO application in the North Yorkshire Council area?
Most domestic installations proceed under permitted development, but you should check with North Yorkshire Council if your property is listed or sits within a conservation area such as Cawood, Church Fenton or Monk Fryston. On the electrical side, the distribution network operator for the whole Selby district is Northern Powergrid (Yorkshire). Standard single-phase heat pumps are usually notified under G98 after installation; larger systems, or a heat pump combined with an EV charger or battery, may need a G99 application, which we handle for you. Note that batteries are not eligible for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme.
