Warm Homes Loan Scheme
Want to help your customers pay for energy-saving home improvements? We’re supporting Secure Trust Bank’s participation in the Warm Homes Loan Scheme through retailers and installers. Tell us about your business and we’ll explain how you could offer Warm Homes Loans to your customers.
What does it mean for retailers and installers?
If you sell eligible home-energy products, the Warm Homes Loan Scheme gives you another way to help customers manage the cost at the point they're making the purchase.
Instead of the cost of solar panels, a battery or heat pump being a reason to put off an installation, eligible customers have access to government-supported finance designed specifically for these improvements.
There are, of course, rules around how the scheme works.
Customers still need to go through the normal creditworthiness and affordability checks. And for solar panels, battery storage and heat pumps, eligible installations must use the relevant MCS-certified products and MCS-certified installers. There are also checks around the customer, property, technology and amount being financed.
But retailers don't have to work out the finance side alone.
