Eligibility depends on the property, the existing heating system and the technology being installed. The points below provide a general guide.
NCS can guide you from the first assessment through to installation and voucher redemption.
Tell us about your property, current heating system and energy use.
We assess heat loss, emitters, hot-water demand and installation requirements.
Once you accept the proposal, NCS applies to Ofgem on your behalf.
The system is installed, tested and commissioned by our specialist team.
A valid EPC number may be used as part of the grant application. However, outstanding loft or cavity-wall insulation recommendations do not automatically prevent a property from receiving the grant.
Even so, insulation can reduce heat loss and improve heat pump performance. Therefore, it may still be worth addressing suitable efficiency measures before or alongside the installation.
Where appropriate, we can help arrange insulation improvements, review heating emitters and support the information needed for the heat pump proposal and grant process.
We combine renewable-heating expertise with decades of plumbing and heating experience across Hertfordshire and the South East.
