Heat Pump Grants in London (2026)
London households get £7,500 off an air-to-water air source heat pump through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS), deducted straight from the quote by your MCS-certified installer. From 21 July 2026 the grant rises to £9,000 for homes heated by oil or LPG. Stack 0% VAT on top (until 31 March 2027) and most households here pay £500 - £6,500 out of pocket on a typical £8,000 to £14,000 installation (indicative, June 2026).
Grant amounts and prices accurate as at June 2026; reviewed weekly.

- £7,500 off an air-to-water or ground-source heat pump in England and Wales. Air-to-air units get £2,500 (added in 2026) and biomass boilers £5,000.
- £9,000 from 21 July 2026 for homes heated by oil or LPG (off the gas grid), expected to run to around March 2027.
- No EPC hoop any more: the EPC-certificate precondition was removed on 28 April 2026.
- Your installer claims it for you: the installer must be MCS-certified and applies on your behalf, so the grant comes straight off the quote. You never front the £7,500.
- Who qualifies: owner-occupiers, small landlords and second homes; most new-builds do not.
- Horizon: the scheme has been extended to 2030.

The heating picture in London
Most homes here heat with a mains-gas boiler, and the Ofgem price cap gas rate jumps 27% on 1 July 2026 (5.74p to 7.33p/kWh). With £7,500 off through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme and 0% VAT until March 2027, replacing the boiler with an air source heat pump at end-of-life is now cost-competitive up front and on running costs. London homes are mostly gas-heated terraces and flats; air-to-air units (£2,500 grant) suit many flats where a wet system is impractical.
