What is the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS)?
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme is a government-funded scheme for England and Wales. It’s designed to support homeowners and small businesses to pay for low-carbon heating systems to replace fossil fuel heating systems.
The scheme is installer‑led, so you contact an MCS‑certified installer – like Outlook Energy Solutions. We’ll then apply for the grant on your behalf.
How much funding can I receive?
The BUS provides up to £7,500 off the cost and installation of a low-carbon heating system. For the cost and installation of a biomass boiler, you can receive up to £5000.
How does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme work?
If successful with your application, the scheme will provide an upfront grant towards the cost and installation of:
- Air source heat pumps
- Water or ground source heat pumps
- Biomass boilers
This scheme is part of a wider plan to decarbonise heating in buildings and support the move away from gas and oil.
Who is eligible for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme?
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme is designed for property and business owners in areas of England and Wales, such as Liverpool. It can be used for homes and small, non-domestic buildings that have a heating capability of 5 kWth.
What are the benefits of the Boiler Upgrade Scheme in Liverpool?
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers several benefits, including a discount on energy efficiency measures for your home.
Discount on home-improvement measures
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers thousands of pounds towards the full cost of energy-efficient home installations. This allows you to drastically improve the energy performance of your home at a huge discount.
Lower energy bills
By installing more energy-efficient systems in your home, you will see a difference in your energy costs. As the new system is more efficient, it doesn’t waste as much energy heating your home, saving on your monthly bills.
Fewer carbon emissions
New low-carbon heating systems do not waste anywhere near as much energy as older, fossil fuel heating systems. This ensures your home has a smaller carbon footprint, ultimately helping the environment.
Improved Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating
Another key benefit of the Boiler Upgrade Scheme in Liverpool is that, by raising the efficiency of your home, you’re improving your EPC rating. This is especially helpful if you consider selling your home years later, as it will be more appealing than other properties on the market thanks to its high EPC rating.
