Warm Homes
Finance Solutions

Join for free and offer your customers more ways to fund their low-carbon home improvements.
 

Help customers finance solar, battery storage, heat pumps and more, while WHFS supports your MCS business with the regulatory, compliance and practical requirements involved in offering customer finance.

WHY OFFER CUSTOMER FINANCE?

Don't lose the sale because of the cost.

Customers may want solar, a battery or a heat pump but still hesitate at a large upfront payment. A properly structured finance journey gives suitable customers another way to consider proceeding.

More sales opportunities

Give suitable customers another way to pay and create more opportunities to turn enquiries and quotations into completed installations.

Help overcome upfront cost

Customer finance can allow an eligible borrower to spread the cost rather than fund the full installation in one payment.

Build a better sales journey

Make finance part of the conversation from quotation stage, with the right disclosures, training and customer-facing tools.

Get the compliance side right

WHFS helps businesses understand and manage the processes involved in promoting and introducing customer finance appropriately.

INDUSTRY UPDATE

GET READY FOR THE GOVERNMENT- SUPPORTED WARM HOMES LOAN SCHEME

The Warm Homes Loan Scheme is a Government-supported, lender-led initiative designed to increase the availability of affordable finance for eligible low-carbon home upgrades across the United Kingdom.
 

The Scheme is primarily aimed at eligible owner-occupiers and private rented sector landlords who are able to borrow but may face barriers such as high upfront costs or limited access to suitable finance.
 

Participating lenders remain responsible for product design, underwriting, pricing and lending decisions. The official Scheme Rules also allow supported products to include personal unsecured lending and certain embedded or point-of-sale finance journeys.

SCHEME INFORMATION

WHAT CAN BE FINANCED?

For relevant technologies, installations must be completed by appropriately MCS-certified installers.

These are Scheme-level caps from the current rules. They are provided as industry information and are not a finance offer from WHFS.

* Heat-pump and biomass caps are stated in the Scheme Rules prior to deduction of any applicable Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant. Air-to-air heat pumps are listed in the rules but are not currently eligible until the required MCS standards and related conditions are in place.
