If you’ve been considering making your home more energy-efficient, now is the time to act. Air source heat pumps and solar panels are smart, sustainable upgrades—but more importantly, generous funding is currently available through the ECO4 scheme, which is coming to an end next year as the UK transitions to the new ECO5 programme.
Because the grant process—from eligibility approval to home survey and installation—takes time, applying now means you can beat the winter rush and ensure your upgrades are completed before the cold sets in.
What is ECO4?
Launched in 2022, the Energy Company Obligation 4 (ECO4) scheme has helped thousands of households transition to low-carbon heating. It provides significant funding toward air source heat pumps, solar panels, and insulation—designed to phase out outdated oil, LPG, electric, and gas heating systems.
Why Choose Air Source Heat Pumps?
Air source heat pumps are among the most efficient heating solutions, absorbing ambient air heat to warm your home and water. With efficiency producing three times more energy than they consume—cutting energy bills and carbon emissions.
What Can You Get?
Eligible homeowners and private tenants could receive up to £20,000 in energy-saving home improvements, including:
-
Loft insulation and cavity wall insulation
-
Air source heat pump installation
-
‘A’ rated hot water cylinder
-
Modern radiators
-
Solar panel systems
Solar + SEG = Even More Savings
