Surely this is a once in a lifetime opportunity?
Any homeowner in England can have an air source heat pump installed in their home, save £100s on their heating bill – AND get it fully or mostly paid by the Government!
That’s right.
The Government is giving away money for ‘green’ home improvements. It’s all part of the drive to create new jobs in the wake of the coronavirus and to make homes more energy efficient.
Green Homes Grant announced by Rishi Sunak, the
Chancellor of the Exchequer.
If you own your home in England and someone in the household is receiving benefits payments, then you can claim £10,000 worth of upgrades covering 100% of the costs. That buys you a fully installed air source heat pump, for example. If you are a homeowner and no-one is on benefits, then you can claim £5,000 covering two-thirds of the cost of work.
Register your interest with HomeSun now and once your voucher is approved, we will organise an MCS survey for you.
Any of the following benefits payments qualifies you, homeowners, for the £10,000 voucher for air-source heat pumps:

Air source pumps are an alternative way to heat your home – replacing your gas or oil based system, for example. They work like a ‘ fridge in reverse’. There are two types: air-to-air; and the more effective and common air-to-water system. They extract free heat from the outside air, raise the temperature using a compressor and use that to heat water for a water tank and central heating system. Air source heat pumps can still extract heat when air temperatures are as low as -15°C. The pump runs on electricity to run – powered by wind or solar energy as well as electricity from the grid. Every 1kW of electricity produces 3kW of heat output which makes them an energy efficient method of heating your home including those heated electrically or with convector or storage heaters.
Potential annual savings if you’re installing a standard air source heat pump in an average sized, four-bedroom detached home will be between 2,150 kg to 10,500 kg of CO2 a year/. £315 to £1300 a year, depending on the age and fuel type of your system.
An air source heat pump works a bit like a fridge in reverse. There is an evaporator, a compressor and a condenser in the unit. The ASHP takes the free heat from the outside air which causes the refrigerant to evaporate (there’s enough heat even in winter to do this). Electricity drives a compressor that compresses the refrigerant and causes it to heat up. This heat is then transferred via a heat exchanger to central heating and hot water circuits. The cooler refrigerant now condenses back into a liquid and starts the cycle again.
An air source heat pump requires little maintenance, is super efficient and easy to install. They are perfect for homes heated with older gas boilers, oil or electricity – because the cost (and carbon emissions) savings are so significant. Give us a call or fill in our online form, and we’ll have a proper look at your home and what could be right for it.
The answer is ‘it depends’ but it could be free!
The cost of an air source heat pump and its installation is down to a number of factors including the size of your home, the manufacturer of the system, and your existing radiators and pipes. If you are eligible for a £10,000 voucher, that should cover all of the costs of the works.
Yes, you should save money. The amount you will save depends on what type of heating you have now. If you have an old LPG system, you could save £1300 each year – huge. When we do a full technical survey, we calculate costs and savings – so you’d never be going ahead with something without having proper information.
It will depend on your home and the size of the system you need. Once we have done the calculations, we’ll let you know what to expect. As a ‘starter for ten’, think of a standard air conditioning unit.
In short, yes. Regardless of your financial position and your household income, homeowners in England can apply for Green Homes Grant and receive the funding needed to make their property more energy efficient and more comfortable to live in. Not only that, but you could see the value of the property itself increase as a direct result. Note that if you are a homeowner with a household member on certain benefits, are eligible for a £10,000 grant to cover 100% of the costs of green home improvements.
If you are a homeowner in England and anyone in your household is on benefits (as listed above), you qualify for a £10,000 grant. If you are a homeowner in England but with no-one on benefits, you qualify for a £5,000 grant to cover two-thirds of the cost of ‘green’ improvements (with you contributing a third).
Register today with HomeSun for your Green Homes Grant voucher, to get you and your property on the way to enjoying an air source heat pump. If you are a homeowner with a member of your household on benefits, your £10,000 voucher should cover the cost of the heat pump and installation work.
