Why Looe Homeowners Are Switching to Heat Pumps
Looe is a twin fishing town — East Looe and West Looe, connected by a bridge across the River Looe — and one of the most popular coastal destinations in Cornwall. The town is known as the UK's shark fishing capital and attracts a significant volume of tourists to its beaches and narrow streets. Like Fowey and Mevagissey, Looe's steep hillsides, heritage character, and narrow streets create installation challenges, but the surrounding villages of Polperro, Pelynt, and Lanreath are all straightforward off-grid heat pump opportunities. Much of the Looe area is off the mains gas grid, with oil and electric heating predominating. The £7,500 BUS grant applies to qualifying oil-to-heat-pump replacements. A branch railway line connects Looe to Liskeard on the main line. CCS Heating & Renewables is approximately 14 miles from Looe.
Common property types in Looe: Pre-1900 fishermen's cottages and terraces, Victorian seaside properties, 1950s–70s residential development, surrounding rural farmhouses
Looe conservation area covers the historic harbour area. BUS grant applicable for off-grid properties. AONB designation applies to the surrounding coast.

Customer Reviews
What Our Customers Say
"CCS installed our air source heat pump and the whole process was brilliant from start to finish. They handled the BUS grant application, and our heating bills have dropped significantly. The house is warmer than it ever was with our old oil boiler."
James & Sarah T.
St Austell
"We were nervous about switching from oil to a heat pump in our period cottage, but CCS made the whole process straightforward. The heat pump is quiet, efficient, and our oil delivery days are over. Brilliant job."
Mark & Louise R.
Fowey
"After much research we chose CCS for our heat pump installation and we are so glad we did. They took the time to explain everything, handled the grant paperwork, and the installation was completed in three days. Very professional team."
