Thinking about replacing your boiler? It might be worth looking at a heat pump first.
A couple of interesting figures caught our eye recently…
Gas costs are rising again from October, while VAT on electricity is being cut to 0%.
At the same time, heat pump applications have just hit a record high – up 81% in July.
There’s also currently a £7,500 grant towards an eligible heat pump, rising to £9,000 for some off-grid homes using oil or LPG.
Add solar into the mix and it starts to become a really interesting option for homeowners looking at their energy costs long term.
If your boiler is getting towards the end of its life, it’s definitely worth knowing what your options are before simply replacing it like-for-like.
