Do I Need New Radiators for a Heat Pump?

Not every home needs a full radiator change

Some homes already have radiators that are large enough or close enough to work well with a heat pump. Others need selected upgrades in the colder or more exposed rooms.

The only reliable way to know is to check room-by-room heat loss and compare that with what the emitters can deliver at realistic flow temperatures.

Why emitter checks matter so much

A heat pump running hotter than it should often costs more to run and feels less stable. Good emitter sizing helps keep flow temperatures lower and the system calmer.

That is why radiator checks are part of the survey, not an afterthought once the unit has already been chosen.

• Some homes need no changes at all
• Some need only selected upgrades
• The survey confirms which rooms need attention
