Explained in plain English

How much will my heating cost?

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers £7,500 towards a heat pump, which could cut your energy bills. Without this help, installing a heat pump yourself costs around £10,000 to £18,000. The government's funding cut means fewer people will get this grant, potentially leaving you with higher installation costs and bigger bills in the long run.
