Heat pumps, underfloor heating and solar in Exeter
Independent planning advice for homeowners in and around Exeter. We don’t install systems. We help you get realistic numbers first — then, if you ask, introduce you to up to three vetted local installers.
Housing stock around Exeter
Exeter and the surrounding East Devon villages mix Victorian terraces, 1930s semis, post-war estates and newer outskirts builds. Many older homes have solid walls, limited loft depth, and floor build-ups that constrain traditional screed underfloor heating.
Heating context
A large share of the city is on mains gas, but surrounding villages and some edge-of-city properties still run on oil or LPG — where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme uplift can matter.
What we help people in Exeter check
- Heat pump feasibility on older Exeter stock, including radiator upgrades
- Low-profile underfloor heating for renovations with tight floor heights
- Solar on typical roof pitches across the city and Exe valley
Calculator outputs are planning estimates only — not MCS design certificates and not fixed installer quotes. Final design still needs a proper survey.
