What Is the Boiler Upgrade Scheme?
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) is a government initiative designed to help homeowners in England and Wales transition to low-carbon heating. It provides upfront grants to cover part of the cost of replacing your existing gas, oil, or electric boiler with a more environmentally friendly alternative.
💷 Grant Amounts Available:
- £7,500 towards the cost of an air source heat pump
- £7,500 for a ground source (or water source) heat pump
- £5,000 for a biomass boiler (in rural areas only)
The scheme runs until April 2028 and is part of the UK’s plan to reduce carbon emissions and reach net zero by 2050.
Who Is Eligible?
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme is available to homeowners, small landlords, and self-builders in England and Wales.
✅ You may qualify if:
- You own your home or property (including landlords)
- Your home has a current Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) with no outstanding recommendations for loft or cavity wall insulation
- You’re replacing an existing fossil fuel heating system (e.g. gas, oil, LPG or electric)
- The property is not a new build (unless self-built)
Don’t worry – GH Heating can help check your eligibility and guide you through any requirements.
Why Replace Your Old Boiler?
- 🔥 Older boilers are inefficient and more costly to run
- 🌍 New systems like heat pumps are cleaner and eco-friendly
- 💷 Government grants significantly reduce upfront costs
- 📈 Future-proof your home for upcoming low-carbon regulations
With rising energy prices and increasing pressure to reduce emissions, switching now gives you a head start on both savings and sustainability.
