£7500 government grant now available!
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) is a great opportunity for homeowners and small businesses in the UK to reduce the upfront cost of installing eco-friendly heating systems. This government initiative offers £7,500 grants for air source and ground source heat pumps, making it easier to switch to low-carbon options. There’s also a £5,000 grant available for biomass boilers.
To take advantage of the scheme, all you need to do is work with an MCS-certified installer. They’ll apply for the grant on your behalf, so the savings are applied directly to your installation costs. The scheme is open to homeowners and small property owners in England and Wales and has been extended to run until 2028.
This initiative is designed to help you reduce your energy bills and your carbon footprint, making your home more sustainable in the long run.

To get started, contact one of our friendly team at The Heating People. We'll ask you a few simple questions about you and your property, and get you booked in for a discovery call with Heat Geek Elite installer, Liam.
We will call you as arranged on a date and time of your choosing, for a 'discovery call'. During this call, we will take some more detailed information about your home and what you're hoping to achieve from your heat pump.
During the technical survey, we will visit your home and carry out a full heat loss assessment as well as an assessment of your existing heating system.
Following the technical visit, we will provide you with a proposal for the installation of your heat pump. We will also provide you with a report containing all of the technical information we gathered and the calculations completed on site. When you are happy to proceed with the work, we will book you in for your installation date.
On your installation day, your engineer will discuss the planned work, to ensure that everyone is happy with the plans. They will explain where they will need access to, and for how long, so that you can plan your day. Your engineer will put down floor coverings in all work areas and transit routes, so that you can rest assured that your home will be protected from any debris.
We take pride in our work, and The Heating People will come back and check that everything is working as designed after your heat pump has been operating in winter conditions.

When installing a Vaillant aroTHERM heat pump, we use Vaillant’s sensoCOMFORT controls.
The sensoCOMFORT is Vaillant’s new control for multi-zone heating systems. It has been designed to be simple to install and use, and operates with Vaillant’s eBUS protocol. This ensures all components of the system can easily communicate with each other to provide optimum system performance. It’s perfect for multi-zone gas-fuelled systems, and hybrid or renewable installations.
The sensoCOMFORT comes with an outdoor sensor, providing weather compensation that automatically adjusts the flow rate from the boiler for ultimate efficiency. Load compensation comes as standard.
FEATURES:
– Boiler modulation – eBUS connection allows the boiler to modulate, ensuring peak performance and optimum efficiency for a Vaillant heating system
– Weather compensating – sensoCOMFORT comes with an outdoor sensor which provides an understanding of the thermal behaviour in and around the property and adjusts the flow temperatures to ensure optimal efficiency
– Intuitive Interface – The touch interface provides a simplistic method of navigating the control to undertake simple tasks
– Energy dashboard – Provides enhanced insight into your heating system performance and energy consumption
– Time programme assistant – Effortlessly set heating programmes within minutes using the time programme assistant
– sensoAPP* – With the sensoNET internet gateway, the sensoAPP can be downloaded and used to manage heating and hot water requirements on the go
– Available wired and wireless – The sensoCOMFORT is available wired and wireless. The wired sensoCOMFORT can support up to 5 heating zones, while the wireless sensoCOMFORT can support up to 3 heating zones.
Heat Pump Quick Q&As
Questions about heat pumps? We can help!
You often hear of heat pumps being described as a fridge in reverse- although this doesn’t make their operation entirely obvious, it’s not far off. You see, heat pumps use the same refrigerant cycle as a fridge to move heat from one place to another- your fridge moves heat from inside the compartment (Or the food in it) to the grill on the back, a heat pump movies heat from the outside air to inside your home (usually via radiators or underfloor heating, but sometimes delivering warm air).
Yes. Because of the way heat pumps refrigeration cycle works, heat can be extracted out of the air at very low temperatures- even negative temperatures. Back to the fridge analogy, if you touch the grill on the back of a fridge, it feels warm. But it’s cold inside the fridge, and nothing warm has been put in it. This is similar to a heat pump, as a heat pump will still operate to get your radiators and hot water to temperature, right the way down to 25c!*
No. Well, not one is installed on a well-designed system. Heat pump system design is far more critical than heating design for a gas heating system, and is even more important than what heat pump is installed, as the poor design will lead to high bills. This is where The Heating People really excel. As Heat Geek trained (Heat Geek Elite in fact!) designers, who operate with the Heat Geek assured installation scheme, we can design the most efficient heating systems for UK homes.
When The Heating People design a system for you, we will advise on the projected efficiency of the system, which with a bit of information about your gas and electric pricing, can show you a projected running cost against that of a gas boiler. You have all the facts prior to installation.
We always start off with a discovery phone call, where we find out about you and your property, so we can advise on the suitability of your home and advise on any pitfalls. We can even give you an estimated installation cost on this call. If you’re happy, and we’re happy at the end of the call, we book an initial survey with you to do a more detailed assessment to provide a fixed price quotation.
