Get £7,500 off your heat pump
The government wants as many homes as possible to switch to clean energy. That’s why they're offering eligible households £7,500 towards the cost of a new heat pump. But hurry, this grant won't be around for long.
- We'll apply for the grant on your behalf
- 0% VAT to pay (effectively saving you 20%)
- Save £500 on your energy bills
What is the boiler upgrade scheme?
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme (or ‘BUS’ for short) gives eligible homes a £7,500 grant to help replace their old gas or oil boiler with a clean energy heat pump. Why? Because heat pumps are 4X more energy efficient than boilers and emit 75% less carbon dioxide.
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme is available in England and Wales, and is an installer-led scheme, which means Aira applies for the grant on your behalf. So all you have to do is sit back, relax, and enjoy your savings.
If you live in Scotland, you may be eligible for the Home Energy Scotland Grant and Loan.
0% VAT to pay. Really?
Any clean energy improvements you make to your home, like switching to a heat pump, installing solar and insulating your walls and roof, are currently VAT-free. That cuts a hefty 20% off the cost of becoming an instantly more energy-efficient home.
By switching to an Aira Heat Pump, you also get:
- A free home energy assessment
- 15-year aftercare with the Aira Comfort Guarantee
- Save £500 annually on your energy bills when you switch from a boiler to an Aira Heat Pump combined with a clean-energy tariff*
Applying for the £7,500 government grant is easy and hassle-free with Aira

What type of home do you live in?
1. Live in England or Wales
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme is only available for properties within England or Wales. Other schemes and funding are available for properties in Scotland and Northern Ireland.
If you live in Scotland, you may be eligible for the Home Energy Scotland Grant and Loan.
2. Own the property
To receive the BUS grant from the government, the application must be made on behalf of the property owner. During the process Ofgem will reach out to the property owner via email to confirm that the installer has applied for the grant on behalf of the property owner.
3. Completely replace a fossil fuel heating system
The heating system being replaced must be a fossil fuel system, or an electric system that did not include a heat pump. Air to air and hybrid heat pumps which include a fossil fuel heating system, and gas condensing boilers are not eligible under the BUS.
4. Have a valid energy performance certificate
A valid EPC is less than 10 years old. Don’t worry if you don't have one. If you need an EPC, we will sort it for you. Contact us to learn more.
