Record numbers of people in the UK are making the transition to air and ground source heat pumps.
One reason for the rise in popularity is the £7500 grant via the Boiler Upgrade Scheme. This means that many families will be able to install a heat pump for less than the average cost of a gas boiler. They’ll also be able to take advantage of the many benefits this technology offers.
Did you know, the UK has one of the most generous heat pump installation schemes in Europe?
Air source heat pumps are the most popular choice and can cost between £6,000 to £11,500 depending on the amount of work required. As MSC accredited installers, Alto Energy enables you to apply for the BUS (Boiler Upgrade Scheme), along with offering highly competitive installation costs.
Based on the latest figures published on gov.co.uk, those changing from a gas boiler to heat pumps can expect to save around £234 per year when choosing smart electricity tariffs and removing the gas metre.
Heat pumps not only work well in newer properties, but can be retrofitted into older buildings. However, it does depend on how challenging it is to minimise heat loss, which usually has to be done through insulation. Our team is always happy to provide advice on whether your property is suitable.
