Boiler Upgrade Scheme
If you’re thinking about getting a heat pump, check out the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS).
The scheme helps property owners switch from fossil fuel heating to a cleaner heating system by providing money towards the upfront cost. Households are able to access the scheme and it isn’t means-tested.
You can get a £7,500 grant towards the cost and installation of an air or ground source heat pump. If your home is heated by oil or LPG, you could receive £9,000 towards a heat pump.
Find out more about getting a heat pump on the government’s Clean Energy website.
