Why Newquay Homeowners Are Switching to Heat Pumps
Newquay is the fastest-growing town in Cornwall — a 25.5% population increase since 2001 — and is one of the most dynamic markets for renewable energy in the region. The town's housing stock ranges from Victorian terraces near the harbour (many converted to holiday lets, with dated electric or gas central heating) to the ambitious Nansledan Garden Village development on the western edge of town. Nansledan — a 540-acre Duchy of Cornwall development planning 4,000 homes — is designed around sustainability principles, with new homes built to higher energy standards and an expectation of renewable heating from the outset. Many older Newquay homes still rely on gas boilers or electric storage heaters that are expensive to run, and the £7,500 BUS grant makes heat pump installation affordable. The bungalow-heavy areas of Porth and the Doublestiles estate have good garden space for external heat pump units, and the cliff-top bungalows in Pentire and around Lusty Glaze benefit from mild Atlantic air temperatures that keep heat pump efficiency high year-round. CCS Heating & Renewables is approximately 17 miles from Newquay, travelling via the A30 and A392, and our engineers are experienced with the range of property types found across the town. Newquay's high proportion of holiday lets also creates demand for reliable, low-maintenance heating systems.
Common property types in Newquay: Victorian terraces (town centre/harbour), 1930s–50s semis and bungalows, 1960s–80s council estates (Edgcumbe, Treviglas), Nansledan new-build homes, cliff-top bungalows (Pentire, Tolcarne)
Cornwall Council supports renewable heating across Newquay. Nansledan (Duchy of Cornwall) builds to higher energy standards, creating demand for heat pumps in new-build homes. Holiday let EPC requirements are accelerating heating system upgrades across the town.

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."
