BOXT now offers a fully end-to-end online heat pump purchase and installation journey.

Heat Pumps are the latest addition to BOXT’s growing range of home energy solutions. In addition to boilers, BOXT also offers air conditioning installation and a range of renewable energy solutions including solar panel and battery storage systems and EV chargers. 

With recent research from Nesta suggesting that at least one in 10 households need to install a heat pump in the next five years, BOXT, partnering with Vaillant, has extended its formula to the purchasing of air source heat pump. 

Visitors to the BOXT website are asked a short series of questions to receive an instant quotation for the best heat pump solution for their home, as well as being able to book an installation date in as little as two weeks with a network of installers available across the country. 

BOXT also applies for the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme Grant on customers’ behalf, lowering the cost of a heat pump to as little as £3,299.

Andy Pattison, Head of Renewables at BOXT, commented: “It is clear that if the UK is to meet its 2050 Net Zero target, significant advances need to be made, and quickly. Heat Pumps have the potential to play a big role in decarbonisation, however they need to be made more accessible to households. 

“A large part of ensuring the successful adoption of heat pumps in UK homes is ensuring homeowners understand how the technology works and the many benefits it can bring.

“By utilising our proven online journey, which has helped to demystify the boiler purchasing journey for thousands of our customers since 2017, we are now replicating our transparent and simple customer journey to remove many of the barriers that people who are looking to make the switch to low-carbon heating are facing, and make it as easy as possible for them. 

“The Boiler Upgrade Scheme is also helping to make the transition more accessible from a financial point of view and we hope that this, coupled with a greater understanding of the product, and a simplified buying journey, will see demand for heat pumps continue to grow as a leading renewable home heating solution.”
