Boiler Upgrade Scheme

Upgrade your home's heating with a £7,500 heat pump grant.

Heat pumps are an efficient, eco-friendly way to heat your home. They work like a fridge in reverse, taking heat from the air or ground - even in freezing weather - and using it to provide heating and hot water. Properly installed, they’re as quiet as a standard boiler.

The Government’s Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers homeowners a £7,500 grant to help cover installation costs. You’re eligible if:

• You own the property
• You have a valid Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)
• You are replacing a fossil fuel heating system such as gas, oil, electric, or LPG.

Benefits of a heat pump

• Stay warm all year round, even in freezing weather
• Lower your heating bills and save money every year
• Cut your carbon emissions by up to 70 per cent
