Grants and rules for heat pumps in Scotland
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme does not apply in Scotland. Instead, homeowners in Monifieth can apply to Home Energy Scotland for a grant of up to £7,500 towards a heat pump, with up to £1,500 more for eligible rural and island homes, plus an optional interest-free loan of up to £7,500. You need a written funding offer before any work starts.
There is no VAT on installing a heat pump anywhere in the UK, Scotland included, until 31 March 2027. Scottish permitted development rules and building standards apply, and the surveyor checks the unit position and any listed or conservation-area constraints.

Heat pump grants in Monifieth: questions
Do you cover Carnoustie as well as Monifieth?
Yes. We arrange surveys and installation in Carnoustie, which is about 5 miles east of Monifieth, and across Angus and Dundee.
How soon can you survey a home in Monifieth?
Survey dates depend on how busy installers are in Angus and Dundee. We offer the next available dates when you enquire and confirm them in writing.
How long does installation take in Monifieth?
Most installations take 2–4 days on site. Jobs with several radiator changes or new pipework take longer, and your quote for a Monifieth home states the expected time.
Can I start work before my Home Energy Scotland offer arrives?
No. In Scotland you must receive a written funding offer from Home Energy Scotland before work starts, otherwise the work may not be funded. We plan the installation date only once your offer is confirmed. Funding is first come, first served, so it helps to apply once you have your written quote.
How much is the heat pump grant?
It depends on where you live. In England and Wales, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme pays £7,500 towards an air-to-water heat pump, or £9,000 when replacing oil or LPG heating for installations from 21 July 2026 to 31 March 2027. In Scotland, Home Energy Scotland offers up to £7,500, plus a rural uplift and an optional loan. Northern Ireland has no dedicated grant at present.
