Simon Wyatt at Cundall on the pros and cons of replacing gas boilers with heat pumps
Heat pumps are very much a hot topic at the moment, with the government’s recent heat and building’s strategy promising homeowners grants of £5,000 to switch away from gas boilers.
One problem is that the total pot of money for the boiler upgrade scheme is only £450m and only covers installations in 90,000 homes.
