My EPC is out of date. At what point in the Upgrades journey do I need to update my EPC to be eligible for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) grant?

The BUS grant is only applicable in England. If you are based in Scotland, please refer to our article on the Home Energy Scotland (HES) grant.

After paying your deposit, we will submit an application for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) grant on your behalf. Part of this application includes providing the details of your EPC, which must be less than 10 years old to be valid. You can check your EPC on the gov.uk website.

We recommend updating your EPC if it is older than or approaching 10 years old. By doing so, we can avoid delays at a later stage.

If you prefer, you can go ahead with purchasing a Design Consultation and receive a costed proposal prior to getting an EPC assessment.
