Boiler vs heat pump

New boiler?
Or a heat pump?

Before you sign off on another gas boiler, see the real numbers side by side — the all-in cost of each, after the £7,500 grant, with a monthly finance figure for both.

What we compare

The honest cost of each, side by side.

We pull your EPC to size both options for your actual property — then put the upfront cost and the monthly finance next to each other so the choice is clear.

  • Boiler cost for your home

    Installed, all-in — matched to your property type and size, not a national average. The number you'd actually be quoted for a like-for-like swap.

  • Heat pump cost after the grant

    MCS-average install price, minus the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant where you qualify — so you see the real net figure, not the sticker price.

  • Are you eligible for the grant?

    Latest Ofgem rules. We flag blockers — outstanding insulation, tenure, double-funding — so you know whether the £7,500 is actually on the table.

  • Monthly finance, both ways

    Spread either onto an install loan — 0% over a short term or a low-APR spread up to 10 years — and compare the real £/month side by side.

How it works

Five minutes, no site visit.

01

Just your address

No floorplan needed for this one. We pull your EPC to read your property type, size and current heating.

02

We price both options

A new boiler sized for your home, and a heat pump net of the grant you qualify for — each with a monthly finance figure.

03

The difference, in black and white

Upfront cost and monthly cost side by side, plus what an MCS installer would refine on a visit. Take it or leave it — no pressure.
