If you’re thinking about switching from oil, LPG, or even mains gas heating to an energy-efficient air source heat pump, now is the perfect time to act. Thanks to the Government’s Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS), homeowners across Cornwall and Devon can receive a £7,500 grant towards the cost of a new heat pump installation — helping you cut your heating bills, reduce your carbon footprint, and futureproof your home.
At GreenGenUK, we handle the entire process for you, making it simple and stress-free.
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme is a Government initiative that helps homeowners in England and Wales switch to low-carbon heating. Through the scheme, you can receive a £7,500 voucher toward the cost of installing an air source or ground source heat pump.
Unlike many grants, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme is simple:
GreenGenUK applies for the grant on your behalf.
The £7,500 is deducted directly from your installation cost, meaning there’s no need to claim money back later.
Funding has recently been increased from £5,000 to £7,500, making low-carbon heating more affordable than ever.
For full details, you can visit Ofgem’s Boiler Upgrade Scheme page or the UK Government’s scheme portal.
You could qualify for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme if:
You own your property — including homeowners, landlords, and self-builders.
Your property is located in England or Wales.
You have a valid Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) with no outstanding recommendations for loft or cavity wall insulation (unless exempt).
Your property has no existing heating system — for example, a new-build home — or you’re replacing oil, LPG, or gas heating.
Importantly, self-build projects are also eligible for the grant. Whether you’re building your forever home or completing a major renovation, GreenGenUK can guide you through the grant process and deliver a tailored heating solution.
Don’t worry if you’re unsure about eligibility — our team checks everything during your free survey.
Switching to a heat pump under the Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers multiple benefits:
✔ Lower Heating Bills – particularly if you’re replacing oil, LPG, or older electric heating.
✔ Reduced Carbon Emissions – a modern air source heat pump can lower your carbon footprint by over 60%.
✔ Futureproofed Energy – protecting your home against rising energy prices and helping to meet net-zero targets.
✔ Quiet and Efficient Heating – systems like Mitsubishi Ecodan and Samsung perform reliably even during colder months.
