Still Heating Your Home with Oil? There's a Better Way.
Rising oil prices are making home heating more expensive and unpredictable than ever. Many homeowners across Essex are now switching to air source heat pumps to take back control of their energy costs and future-proof their homes.
At EPC, we specialise in designing and installing heat pump systems that deliver consistent, reliable heating all year round—without the volatility of oil. With the current £9,000 government grant, plus our local Terling group discount, upgrading has never been more affordable.
Air source heat pumps work by extracting heat from the outside air to warm your home and provide hot water efficiently—even in cold weather. The result is a modern, low-maintenance system that offers stable running costs, reduced reliance on fossil fuels, and long-term peace of mind.
Based in Chelmsford and established in 2016, we provide a complete service—from system design through to installation and ongoing support. We also handle oil tank removal, making the switch simple from start to finish.
If you're currently relying on oil, now is the time to explore a smarter, more stable way to heat your home.

Can a Heat Pump Keep Your Home Warm in Winter?
Absolutely! Heat pumps are designed to efficiently heat your home, even during the coldest winter months. They work by extracting heat from the outside air and compressing it under high pressure to generate warmth.
The beauty of heat pump technology is that it doesn’t rely on warm outside air. Even in freezing temperatures, a heat pump can absorb heat from the air and transfer it into your home, keeping you and your family cosy all winter long. With a heat pump, you can enjoy reliable, energy-efficient heating no matter the weather.

Are Heat Pumps Noisy?
Heat pumps do produce some noise as part of their operation, but modern systems are designed to be as quiet as possible. At EPC Improvements, all our heat pump installations are MCS Certified, ensuring they meet strict quality and noise standards.
Our installations are guaranteed to have a noise level of 45 decibels or less at a distance of 1 metre—that’s quieter than a typical fridge and only slightly louder than rustling leaves. With our expert installation and advanced heat pump models, you can enjoy efficient, low-noise heating for your home.
