Ground source heat pumps are available under the Warm Homes Plan for eligible L75 households, though they are less commonly funded than air source systems due to the installation requirements. Submit the eligibility form to find out whether your L75 property and circumstances qualify.
A ground source heat pump extracts heat from the ground via a network of buried pipes (ground loop), then uses that heat to warm your home and hot water. Ground temperatures remain stable year-round, making these systems highly efficient. They typically achieve a coefficient of performance (CoP) of 3 to 4.
Ground source heat pumps require either a horizontal ground loop buried in your garden (typically 200 to 400 square metres of land) or vertical boreholes drilled to depths of 50 to 150 metres. A free survey will assess whether your L75 property has suitable land or drilling access.
Eligibility requires a qualifying means-tested benefit (such as Universal Credit, Pension Credit, or similar) and an EPC rating of D, E, F or G. The property must have suitable ground conditions. Owner-occupiers and private tenants with landlord permission can both apply.
Ground source heat pumps are generally more efficient but more expensive to install due to groundworks. Air source heat pumps are easier to fit on most properties. An installer will assess your specific L75 home during the free survey and recommend the most appropriate system based on your land, property type, and heating requirements.
