Independent Energy Guide · Free to Use

Helping UK homeowners
find the grants they may qualify for

Last updated: 11 November 2026 · Written by the HeatFunding team · Reviewed by Steve Smith, HeatFunding · Checked against GOV.UK and Ofgem guidance

HeatFunding is a free, independent guide to heat pump grants in the UK. We explain, in plain English, what help may be available for your home — and we run a free two-minute check that tells you which schemes you may qualify for, before you speak to anyone.

What we do

We cover the grants and upgrades that matter most to homeowners and landlords, and we keep every guide in one place so you can compare your options without chasing five different websites.

Heat pump grants

£7,500 off a heat pump through the government heat pump grant — up to £9,000 for eligible off-gas-grid homes.

Eligibility checker

Our free two-minute check — answer a few questions about your home and see what you may qualify for.

Why we built this

Energy grants are hard to follow. The rules sit on different government pages, the deadlines move, and a lot of the advice online is written to sell you something. We built HeatFunding because homeowners deserve one honest place to work out what help may be available — written in plain English, with the official rules checked, and no grant ever promised before a full eligibility check.

We are a small team. We read the official guidance ourselves, we test the checker ourselves, and when a scheme changes we update the page and change the date on it.

How we make money

Our checks and guides are always free for you. If you ask us to connect you with an installer, we may receive a referral fee from them — it never adds to your cost, and we only share your details when you ask us to. We do not sell your details to marketplaces, and no installer can pay to be recommended in our guides.

Our editorial standards

We write every guide ourselves. We do not copy text from other websites, and we do not publish claims we have not checked. Where a figure is an estimate or a typical range, we say so. Where a scheme has conditions, we list them instead of hiding them. If you spot something you believe is wrong or out of date, email us — verified errors are corrected and the date on the page is changed.

How our information is verified

Every grant amount, deadline and eligibility rule on this site is checked against official sources — GOV.UK, Ofgem and HMRC guidance — and each page carries the date it was last checked. The figures we quote are the current ones: £7,500 for a heat pump under the government heat pump grant, up to £9,000 for eligible off-gas-grid homes, 0% VAT on domestic energy-saving installations to March 2027, and ECO4 closing on 31 December 2026. Schemes change, so always confirm the current rules on GOV.UK before you commit to anything.

Get in touch

HeatFunding is run by Steve (Steve Smith). You can reach us at info@heatfunding.co.uk — we read every message. We do not run a call centre, so email is the best way to reach us.

Our values

Honest first

We say what you may qualify for — and what you will not. A “no” from us is worth more than a false “yes”.

Free for you

The guides and the eligibility check cost nothing, and they always will.

Independent

We are not the government, not a grant administrator and not an installer. No scheme pays us to recommend it.

Plain English

No jargon, no small print, no ten-page forms before you know whether it is worth your time.

Editorial standards

Our full standards — sources first, our own words, corrections and no paid placements — are set out on our Editorial Policy page.
