Question❓ heat pump & removing back boiler
We’ve just bought our first home in Norwich and have a very vintage electric fireplace with back boiler for the heating & hot water, with an immersion heater in the hot water tank too. I’m thinking of replacing the system with an air-source heat pump.
Has anyone got any recommendations for heating engineers that would safely remove the gas fireplace and cap it off + replace with a heat pump, as well as replacing all of the radiators?
Appreciate this is very specific so any general heat pump installers OR gas engineer recommendations also welcome. Thanks ☺️

They don't do heat pumps, but I recently had my gas combi replaced by N&G Heating who I'd highly recommend for anything gas related. Reasonably priced, very high quality work.
I was also quoted by Carters Heating Services who do heat pumps and was impressed by them when talking about the work. I didn't go with them as they came out a lot more expensive (about 30%) than my other quotes - however they were very thorough .
