New boilers, heat pumps and air con for Wakefield homes
If you're looking for boiler installation in Wakefield, or you're weighing up a heat pump or air conditioning, S.P Contractors can help. We fit and repair all three, and we're only a short drive away.
Every gas job is done by Gas Safe registered engineers. We're MCS certified and RECC approved for heat pumps, F-Gas certified for air conditioning, and Vaillant Approved and accredited with Worcester Bosch for boilers.
Our Google reviews keep coming back to the same two things: we explain what we're doing as we go, and we leave the house as tidy as we found it.
Boilers
Replacing the boiler in a Wakefield home
Many of the older homes close to Wakefield city centre are Victorian terraces. In these houses the boiler is often squeezed into a kitchen cupboard, and where the flue can go is limited by the house next door or the back yard wall. The gas pipe can also be too narrow for a modern boiler. Both need checking before a new boiler goes in, and we go through them with you at the survey so there are no surprises on the day.
If you still have a tank in the loft and a hot water cylinder in the airing cupboard, we'll talk you through whether a combi or a system boiler suits the way your household uses hot water. A busy home with two bathrooms is often better off keeping stored hot water.
Our boiler installation page explains how we size and fit a new boiler, and boiler replacement covers swapping out an old one that's on its way out. You can also spread the cost with finance arranged through TradeHelp, subject to status.
Heat pumps
Could a heat pump work in your Wakefield home?
The suburban semis in places like Horbury and Outwood, and the larger detached homes on the edge of town, usually have space at the side or back for a heat pump's outdoor unit, and room indoors for a hot water cylinder. That makes them good candidates. A terrace with a small yard can work too, but where the unit sits and how it sounds next door need more thought.
Being MCS certified matters here. A heat pump has to be fitted by an MCS certified installer for you to claim the government's Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant. We'll look at your radiators, insulation and hot water needs, and tell you straight whether a heat pump makes sense for your home.

Air conditioning
Air con for Wakefield homes, fitted and fixed
Air conditioning isn't only for cooling. A modern split system can warm a room in winter as well as cool it in summer, which makes it a good fit for a loft conversion, a garden room or a bedroom that gets too hot on summer nights.
If you live in a flat, such as one of the newer apartment blocks in the city centre, check with your landlord or building management first, as the outdoor unit usually needs their permission. Air conditioning has to be fitted by F-Gas certified engineers because of the refrigerant it uses, and we are.
Our air conditioning installation page shows how we fit a system. If you already have air con that isn't cooling, is dripping water indoors or has started making new noises, our air conditioning repair page explains how we find the fault.
