Future proof your property
Gas and oil boilers will gradually be phased out to meet the government’s climate commitments. By installing a heat pump, you future-proof in your property and make it more attractive for future buyers.
This is especially true for a ground source heat pump system. The ground collector: Boreholes, or horizontal loops, will support several generations of heat pumps. It is an energy well with a life like that of the property itself.
Environment – reduce CO2 emissions
Replacing a gas or oil boiler with a heat pump reduces CO2 emissions and contributes to fighting climate change. The CO2 reduction is even higher if some of the electricity used to run the heat pump is generated by solar PV on site.
Reduce your running costs
Although heat pumps use electricity, the running cost can be significantly lower compared to boilers. The potential savings depend on several factors such as replaced fuel, age of the replaced boiler, type of heat pump, and quality of the heating distribution system.
Benefit from Government Grants
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) was launched in April 2022 to aid the decarbonisation of buildings. It provides upfront capital grants to support the installation of heat pumps in dwellings and small commercial buildings.
The BUS is available for properties in England and Wales. Vouchers of £7,500 are available for air, ground, and water source heat pumps. 90,000 vouchers are allocated on a “first come, first serve” basis.
