Can I get the £2,500 grant for air conditioning in Hertfordshire or North London?
Sometimes — and we'll tell you straight. The £2,500 comes from the government's Boiler Upgrade Scheme and applies to air-to-air heat pumps (which is what modern air conditioning is) when the installation is MCS-certified and your home qualifies. It does not apply to cooling-only installations. Book a free survey and we'll confirm your eligibility before you spend anything.
What qualifies
- An air-to-air heat pump system — the heating-and-cooling units we install.
- The installation is carried out under MCS certification.
- Your property meets the scheme's eligibility rules (we check this for you at the survey).
What doesn't
- Cooling-only air conditioning — the system must provide heating to qualify.
- Installations done without MCS certification, whatever anyone promises.
If someone offers you “the grant” on a cooling-only unit, walk away — that's mis-selling, and it's your name on the paperwork.
How the money works
The grant is claimed through the installation — you see it as £2,500 off your quoted price, not a cheque you chase afterwards. We handle the paperwork; you see the deduction in writing on the quote before you commit.
