How to Become a Heat Pump Installer

You can easily become a heat pump installer by taking a heat pump installation course, like the one we offer at Access Training. A course like this will teach you everything you need to know and help you to get qualified in this very useful skill. Heat pumps are in demand as an alternative to increasingly-expensive electrical bills.

A heat pump is also an incredibly efficient way to reduce your home's carbon footprint. It heats your home by drawing heat from the air or the ground surrounding your property to provide heating and hot water to your home. If you provide this service to others and become a heat pump installer you could earn up to £35 per hour!

If you're wondering where you can learn to install a heat pump, then you're in the right place.

Three Reasons to Become a Heat Pump Engineer

1. In-demand: Consistent Work and Employment

By 2028, the government predicts that there will be up to 600,000 heat pump installations a year! If you're looking for a career that is in-demand, it's hard to argue with those figures. Becoming a heat pump engineer could give you very stable employment compared to other more volatile industries.

2. It's a Chance to Upskill

By upskilling your existing qualifications, you open up more career opportunities. Instead of being able to offer just plumbing and heating services, you can use your transferable skills to become a heat pump installer and earn more money.

3. It Pays Well

When you become a heat pump installer, you will have a very niche skillset that not many other tradesmen have. Due to this, you can expect to get a decent salary out of heat pump installation jobs, with most heat pump installer hourly salaries weighing in at £35 an hour. If you work 35 hours a week, you could potentially take home £1,225 in a week!
