How we calculate this: We estimate your annual heat demand from typical property-type averages, then apply your current system's efficiency and fuel cost alongside an air source heat pump's seasonal efficiency (SCOP of 3.5) and current UK energy prices. The grant figure reflects the current Boiler Upgrade Scheme (£7,500). Installation cost is a typical estimate — actual quotes vary. Actual savings depend on insulation, usage, and tariff.
