Why Polperro Homeowners Are Switching to Heat Pumps
Polperro is one of the most visited villages in Cornwall — a working fishing village of extraordinary beauty, with whitewashed cottages crowded around a tiny inner harbour and a maze of alleys climbing the hillsides above. The village is almost entirely within a conservation area, and like Fowey, has extremely limited garden or access space that creates challenges for heat pump installation. However, Polperro is confirmed as off the mains gas grid, and the BUS grant (£7,500) makes the switch from oil to heat pump financially attractive. Our engineers' experience in heritage coastal villages gives us the specialist knowledge needed to plan installations that meet both planning requirements and technical standards. Salt air equipment specification and noise planning in dense narrow streets are part of every Polperro installation assessment. CCS Heating & Renewables is approximately 14 miles from Polperro.
Common property types in Polperro: Pre-1900 fishermen's cottages, Victorian terraces, period buildings (most within conservation area)
Polperro conservation area covers virtually the entire village. AONB designation. Planning requirements for external installations are strict.

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."
