Boiler upgrade scheme

£7,500 off a new heat pump

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme Explained

£7,500 Off a New Heat Pump

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) is a government grant that takes £7,500 off the cost of an air source or ground source heat pump for homes in England and Wales.

If your home isn’t on mains gas and you’re replacing an oil, LPG or coal boiler, the grant rises to £9,000. That higher rate started on 21 July 2026 and is currently set to run until March 2027.

There are no forms for you to fill in. We apply for the grant on your behalf and take it straight off your quote, so you only pay the difference.

THP - Warrington HP - 420% efficiency
Case study

Warrington

Featured project

420% Efficiency From a Heat Pump in Warrington

We replaced an old gas boiler with a 7kW Vaillant aroTHERM plus heat pump, a hot water cylinder and weather compensation controls, designed to Heat Geek principles to run at a low 45°C flow temperature.

Over its first year, the system has run at 420% efficiency. For every unit of electricity it uses, it produces more than four units of heat, and the customer is already seeing lower energy bills.

The customer also received the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, which we applied for on their behalf.

Elite accredited installers

Heat Geek accreditation

What Is Heat Geek Accreditation?

Heat Geek is the UK’s leading training and accreditation programme for heating professionals. Becoming accredited isn’t easy. It means passing tough exams in heat loss calculations, hydraulic balancing, flow temperatures and smart control integration. Many installers can fit a system, but a Heat Geek understands how to design it properly so it runs at its most efficient.

Heating system design: every home is different, so we design your system around the building, choosing the right emitters for your space, whether that’s underfloor heating, radiators or a mix.

Heat loss calculations: we don’t guess, we measure. Knowing how much heat each room needs stops us oversizing your heat pump, which wastes energy and pushes up bills.

Flow temperature optimisation: most UK systems run far hotter than they need to. We design yours to run at lower flow temperatures, which makes it quieter, more efficient and cheaper to run.

How it works

A Roadmap to Your Sustainable Energy Future.

Start with our free online heat pump estimate. Pop in your address and you'll get an instant ballpark figure for your home. When you're ready, we'll book you in for a discovery call with Heat Geek Elite installer, Liam.

Step 2 - Discovery call

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.

Step 3 - Technical survey

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.

Step 4: Proposal

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.

Step 5: Installation

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.

The follow up

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.

Controlling your heat Pump

Controlling Your Heat Pump

When we install a Vaillant aroTHERM heat pump, we pair it with Vaillant’s sensoCOMFORT control.

sensoCOMFORT is designed to be simple to use and talks to the heat pump over Vaillant’s eBUS connection, so every part of the system works together for the best performance. It’s ideal for homes with more than one heating zone.

It comes with an outdoor sensor for weather compensation, which adjusts the heat pump’s flow temperature to the weather outside. Your heat pump runs at the lowest temperature that keeps you warm, and that’s the key to low running costs.

Vaillant sensoCOMFORT

FEATURES:

– Heat pump modulation: the eBUS connection lets the heat pump adjust its output to match demand, so it runs smoothly instead of switching on and off

– Weather compensation: the outdoor sensor reads the conditions around your home and adjusts flow temperatures for the best efficiency

– Intuitive interface: the touch screen makes everyday changes quick and simple

– Energy dashboard: see how your heating system is performing and how much energy it uses

– Time programme assistant: set up your heating schedule in minutes

– App control: add the sensoNET internet gateway and manage your heating and hot water from your phone

– Wired or wireless: the wired sensoCOMFORT supports up to 5 heating zones, and the wireless version up to 3

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.

The quickest way is our free online heat pump estimate. Enter your address and you’ll get an instant ballpark figure for your home.

If you’d like to take it further, we’ll book a discovery call to talk through your home and what you want from your heating, followed by a technical survey so we can give you a fixed price quote.
