A guide with an installer's name

The site's name matches what many people type when they start looking. We use it to reach those readers with something more useful than a list of adverts: the local figures, the grant conditions and the planning rules that decide what a heat pump means for their home. We do not survey, quote for or fit heat pumps, and nothing on the site is a recommendation of a firm.

Why off-gas and rural homes

Across the three council areas, 19,096 households relied on oil or LPG alone in 2021, and in the two Cheshire councils more than one property in ten has no gas meter. Those homes face the biggest change and the most conditions, so the guide puts them first. Gas-heated homes, the majority, are covered too, especially on the Warrington page.

Who publishes it

Published by SEO-DONS LTD (company no. 16766013), 71-75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London WC2H 9JQ. The company's record is on Companies House. Pages are written and checked by the publisher; there are no named authors.

Checking an installer

When you do look for a firm, check it on the MCS register, which the Boiler Upgrade Scheme requires, and check which consumer code it belongs to, such as RECC or HIES. If it shows the TrustMark logo, look it up on TrustMark's own site. Ask for the heat-loss figures, the design and the warranty in writing. We review each page here when one of its sources changes.

The boundary we keep

The guide covers three council areas and stops there. Halton belongs with Merseyside's councils, and Wirral and Liverpool have their own schemes; the Greater Manchester boroughs to the east and Lancashire to the north are outside too. Keeping to one boundary keeps every local figure on the site consistent with the councils and datasets it comes from.
