Briefing, before you pay
This is what the catalogue says the scheme asks. It is not a score of your chances, and it is not an award.
- The property is in England or Wales. Social housing and most new-builds are out.
- It replaces fossil-fuel or direct electric heating.
- You apply through an MCS-certified installer. You do not file the voucher yourself.
- £7,500 for an air-to-water, ground-source or water-source heat pump. £9,000 for an eligible off-gas air-to-water or ground-source pump until 31 March 2027. £2,500 for an air-to-air pump in a home. £5,000 for a rural biomass boiler.
Nothing is saved about the business yet. The writing form keeps it for the next scheme.
Still blank, and left blank on purpose: the business name, what the business does, how many people you employ, turnover and profit, the amount you will request. We do not invent figures, partners or a result.
What you put in
The installer deducts the grant. Budget the rest of the installation.
How this fits the last check
Run a check with a postcode or a place. This section will then say whether the scheme covers that place, that trade and that size.
Tick these if you can show them
