Frequently Asked Questions About The Boiler Upgrade Scheme 2023
You’re eligible for a grant if all the following are true. You must:
- own the property you’re applying for (including if it’s a business, a second home, or a property you rent out to tenants)
- have installed (or plan to install) your new heating system on or after 1 April 2022
- be replacing fossil fuel heating systems (such as oil, gas or electric)
You’re still eligible if you’ve already had funding to make your property more energy efficient, for example by insulating it.
Your property must have a valid Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) with no outstanding recommendations for loft or cavity wall insulation.
Find out what to do if your property has recommendations for loft or cavity wall insulation.
If you’re not sure whether your property is suitable for a low carbon heating system, speak to an MCS certified installer. They can tell you about your options.
New build properties which the developer is still building are not eligible.
If you move into a finished new build with a fossil fuel boiler, you may be able to get a grant for a heat pump under the scheme
- you or the original owner built it yourself or you paid a builder to build it
- it’s never been owned by a business or organisation
You’ll need to show your installer proof that your property is a self build, for example, a copy of the title deeds.
- your property is off the gas grid
- your property is in a rural location (check the Ofgem guidance for property owners if you’re not sure)
- your boiler has an emissions certificate showing that polluting emissions are kept to a minimum
You cannot get a grant to install a biomass boiler in a self build property.
For a heating system to be eligible under BUS, it has to be installed by an installer certified by the Microgeneration Certification Service (MCS).
As with all home improvements we recommend that you obtain quotes from multiple installers.
You can find an installer in your area on the MCS website.
