The UK's efforts to transition from gas boilers to heat pumps are facing challenges due to a lack of consumer interest and a shortage of skilled installers, as revealed by a recent industry survey. Nearly a third of installers surveyed cited difficulty in finding skilled fitters as a barrier for customers, while 40% noted a general lack of interest in heat pumps among households. This survey, the most comprehensive of its kind, highlights the primary obstacle to widespread adoption of heat pumps in the UK: a low uptake by homeowners.
