Certified Installers
To carry out work under government schemes, all tradespeople and businesses need to be certified and registered. Installers must be certified by a body that has been accredited by the United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS), such as Trustmark or RECC. Furthermore, accreditation is also required to install systems such as heat pumps. All engineers must be certified with the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS).
Our customers can rest assured that Heppelthwaite the Red Van Plumbers meet all accreditations.

ABOUT RENEWABLE ENERGY: Renewable energy is energy from a source that is not depleted when used, such as wind. A fossil fuel such as oil or gas can not be reused after it is burnt so therefore is not a renewable energy.
People have become too reliant on the use of fossil fuels and that supply is fast running out. The answer to all of these problems is renewable heating solutions.
Energy such as solar, wind energy and water power is generated from natural energy sources and unlike fossil fuels, these sources of energy never run out.
Using renewable energy helps to protect our planet by reducing the amount of carbon emissions we produce. This source of energy has a much lower impact on the environment.
Being energy efficient can also have it’s financial benefits and could reduce your energy bills. Furthermore, there are government financial incentive to promote the use of renewable heat, which includes the RHI (Renewable Heat Incentive).
Switching to heating systems that use eligible energy sources can help the UK reduce its carbon emissions and meet its renewable energy targets.

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme is set to launch on the 23rd May. It will replace the previous Green Homes Grant.
The government will provide grants to encourage property owners to install low carbon heating systems such as heat pumps, through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS). These grants will help property owners overcome the upfront cost of low carbon heating technologies. Not everyone can apply so you’ll need to check to see if you are eligible.
