Air Source Heat Pump Installation in Wadebridge

Wadebridge is the most renewables-aware community in our service area, and arguably one of the most receptive markets for heat pump and solar installation in the UK. The town is home to WREN — the Wadebridge Renewable Energy Network — a community initiative that installed solar panels on approximately 500 homes (around 10% of all houses in Wadebridge), built a 100kW community solar farm at nearby Nanstallon, and ran a dedicated Energy Shop helping residents make the switch to renewable energy. The BBC has described Wadebridge as a contender for the title of 'solar capital of the UK.' This means that when CCS Heating & Renewables surveys a Wadebridge home, the homeowner is typically already informed, enthusiastic, and ready to act. The town straddles the River Camel 5 miles upstream from Padstow, and the North Cornwall constituency surrounding Wadebridge has one of the lowest mains gas connection rates in England — 53.4% of homes are off-grid, relying on oil, LPG, or electric heating. These properties are prime candidates for the £7,500 BUS grant when switching to a heat pump. The historic Grade II* listed medieval bridge of 1468 is the centrepiece of a town that mixes 18th/19th-century conservation area buildings with 1970s estates and the growing 'Cornish Quarter' new-build development. The Camel Trail cycling route to Padstow makes Wadebridge one of the most visited towns on the North Cornwall coast.
