Common questions
What does the HES grant cover? +
Primarily air source heat pumps (£7,500), ground source (£7,500), biomass (£7,500). Rural uplift adds £1,500 to each.
Is my property rural for HES purposes? +
HES uses the Scottish Government Urban-Rural Classification. Most of West Lothian, Falkirk and the Central Belt are urban; outer parts of Fife and Lanarkshire often qualify as rural.
Can I stack the HES grant with the loan? +
Yes — combined up to £24,500. We model the optimal combination for your specific install at quote.
Does the grant cover solar PV? +
No — solar PV is covered by the HES loan (interest-free) but not the grant. The grant is heat-focused.
How long does grant approval take? +
4-8 weeks for grant + loan combined applications. We handle the full submission.
