THE SHORT ANSWER
An exclusive, qualified heat pump lead in Cork costs roughly EUR 97 to EUR 151 in 2026, average EUR 124. At 3 to 5 leads per customer that is about EUR 496 per acquired customer, 3.7 percent of a typical EUR 9,000 to EUR 18,000 project. For heat pump leads, Cork takes the plain national Ireland multiplier of 1.08; only Dublin carries the primary-market premium in this model.
Buying heat pump leads in Cork: the 2026 price band
Set your Cork budget from this: an exclusive heat pump lead priced for this market specifically, not a national average. One homeowner per lead, matched to your postcodes and job type, never resold to a second heat pump business.
Price per exclusive lead in Cork: EUR 97 to EUR 151, average EUR 124
Typical project value: EUR 9,000 to EUR 18,000
Exclusive leads needed per customer: 3 to 5
Cost per acquired customer: around EUR 496
City multiplier applied: 1.08
These figures are a benchmark model, not a survey. They combine an industry base range observed across Western European home-improvement campaigns with a country multiplier for local auction pressure. Treat them as a band to negotiate against, not a quote. For heat pump leads, Cork takes the plain national Ireland multiplier of 1.08; only Dublin carries the primary-market premium in this model.
Who you are actually selling to in Cork
Filtering a Cork heat pump enquiry on current heating system, insulation level, radiator type, ownership and timeline before the first call is the cheapest quality control available. The people behind these forms are generally a homeowner replacing a gas or oil boiler, driven by boiler replacement deadlines and running-cost comparisons rather than by comparing your price to a competitor's.
When heat pump leads are cheapest in Cork
Demand for heat pump work in Cork peaks in September to January and falls away around June and July. Buying volume in the quiet months and nurturing it toward the peak is the cheapest growth available here, and it is rarely done because it means spending money while the phone is quiet.
How buying heat pump leads in Cork actually works
The mechanics do not change with volume. You set postcodes and job types covering Cork for heat pump work, Flock routes matching homeowner requests straight to you, and delivery happens within minutes of the enquiry. No heat pump lead placed with you in Cork is ever sold to a competitor as well.
Starter - 10 leads for EUR 750, which is EUR 75 per lead
Growth - 25 leads for EUR 1,750, which is EUR 70 per lead
Scale - 45 leads for EUR 2,925, which is EUR 65 per lead
Pro - 70 leads for EUR 4,340, which is EUR 62 per lead
Max - 90 leads for EUR 5,400, which is EUR 60 per lead
Anything you do not use carries forward under the Flock Lead Promise, so a slow heat pump patch in Cork does not erase paid volume. The trade-off is simple: rollover instead of refunds.
What a Cork customer actually costs you
3 to 5 exclusive heat pump leads is the normal range needed to land one job in Cork. Multiply that by the EUR 124 average price and a heat pump customer costs around EUR 496, or 3.7 percent of a typical EUR 13,500 project.
How Cork compares to the rest of Ireland
heat pump prices move by city inside Ireland, not only by country. Set against Cork, the other three heat pump markets in this model look like this:
Dublin (multiplier 1.17) - EUR 105 to EUR 163 per exclusive lead
Galway (multiplier 1.08) - EUR 97 to EUR 151 per exclusive lead
Limerick (multiplier 1.08) - EUR 97 to EUR 151 per exclusive lead
Nothing in that spread says one city's heat pump homeowners are more serious than another's. It is installer density setting the auction price, city by city.
How to test a heat pump lead supplier in Cork without risking a quarter
Buy a small, defined batch of heat pump leads rather than a retainer, and decide in advance what counts as success. For Cork at these prices, a fair test is enough leads to expect two or three sales: at 3 to 5 leads per customer that means at least 15 leads, and anything smaller measures luck rather than the supplier.
Fix the Cork postcodes and heat pump job types in writing before the first lead arrives.
Record time from heat pump lead creation to your first call attempt; above thirty minutes you are measuring your own follow-up, not the leads.
Track cost per acquired heat pump customer against the EUR 496 benchmark on this page, not cost per lead.
Agree the replacement rule for wrong area, wrong job type and unreachable numbers before you pay for the heat pump batch.
Confirm the heat pump price excludes VAT and is denominated in EUR.
None of this is unusual to ask. A supplier serious about heat pump volume in Cork will have answered these questions before you finished asking them.
