Heat pump high priority delivery areas in 91福利社
Heat pumps typically work best when they’re not working very hard. That means that buildings that are well-insulated are best suited to heat pumps.
Other factors to consider include whether the building has a “wet system” in place already. A wet system means the building is heated by hot water running through radiators or underfloor heating.
Local Heat and Energy Efficiency Strategy (LHEES) and heat pumps
Download a map that shows heat pump high priority delivery areas (PDF). This map is not accessible, if you need help please email LHEES@edinburgh.gov.uk. On the map, areas are highlighted in blue and orange that have been identified in the LHEES as being well suited for heat pumps to work efficiently. These areas have been identified as high priority delivery areas where we may work with property owners to encourage the installation of heat pumps.
See delivery areas 9 to 18 in the LHEES delivery plan - these can be found on pages 44 to 63.

How to use the map
To use the map, select 'Heat Pump Potential – Homes Connected to the Gas Grid', then select 'Category 1'. The darker the area, the more likely the properties within the zone will be suited to a heat pump.
If the area you were looking for didn’t appear, try selecting 'Heat Pump Potential – Homes Not Connected to the Gas Grid', then select 'Category 1'. Again, the darker the area, the more likely the properties within the zone are to be suited to a heat pump.
