Frequently asked questions

What is the Boiler Upgrade Scheme air source heat pump grant?

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) provides a £7,500 government grant toward the cost of replacing a fossil fuel heating system with an air source heat pump. The grant is paid directly to a MCS-accredited installer, reducing the amount you pay. It is available to homeowners in England and Wales regardless of income.

Who is eligible for the BUS air source heat pump grant in BS9?

Any owner-occupier or private landlord in BS9 (England and Wales) who is replacing gas, oil, LPG, or electric heating with an air source heat pump may apply. The property must have a valid EPC with no outstanding recommendations for loft or cavity wall insulation. There is no income or benefit threshold.

How much does an air source heat pump cost after the grant?

Air source heat pump installation costs vary by property size and location, typically ranging from £10,000 to £18,000 before the grant. After the £7,500 BUS grant is applied, the typical cost is around £3,000 to £11,000. Your installer will provide a written quote before any commitment.

Do I need to sort out insulation first?

The BUS requires your EPC to have no outstanding recommendations for loft or cavity wall insulation. If your EPC does flag these, you will need to complete them first or obtain a new EPC after completing the insulation. An accredited installer can advise on the quickest route to meet this requirement for your BS9 property.

How do I apply for the BUS grant in BS9?
