FAQs
What rebates are currently available for installing a tankless water heater in Harrogate?
Home-owners in Harrogate can typically claim (1) the £300 Energy Company Obligation (ECO4) efficiency rebate offered by most major gas and electricity suppliers, (2) a £150 Northern Gas Networks efficiency grant for qualifying high-efficiency gas appliances and (3) manufacturer cash-back incentives that range from £75-£100 on selected models. All three can be stacked as long as the combined value does not exceed the total invoice amount.
Who is eligible to receive these rebates?
You can apply if you: • Own or privately rent a property within an HG1–HG5 postcode. • Replace an existing storage-type cylinder or standard combi with a condensing, high-efficiency tankless unit that meets at least 94 % ErP. • Have the installation carried out by a Gas Safe–registered installer (for gas units) or a Part P certified electrician (for electric units) who is also an approved contractor for the rebate scheme. • Submit the claim within 90 days of the installation date. Tenants need the landlord’s written consent to qualify.
How do I apply for the rebate once my tankless unit is installed?
1. Book your installation through us so we can reserve your rebate allocation. 2. On the installation day we complete and sign the utility rebate form and the manufacturer’s cash-back voucher. 3. Collect the required documents (final invoice, commissioning sheet, Gas Safe certificate and photographs of the old and new water heater). 4. Email or post the bundle to the address printed on the form, or allow us to submit it on your behalf at no extra charge. Most customers receive the rebate via bank transfer within 4–6 weeks.
What paperwork or evidence will I need to include with my application?
You will need: • A copy of the paid installation invoice showing the model and serial number of the new tankless heater. • A completed ECO4/Northern Gas Networks rebate form signed by both the installer and the homeowner. • The Gas Safe (or NICEIC) compliance certificate. • Two photos: one of the old hot-water system before removal and one of the new tankless unit after commissioning. • Proof of address such as a recent council-tax bill or utility statement. Keep originals for your records—only scanned copies are sent.
How much can I expect to save by switching to a tankless system plus rebates?
The combined rebates reduce the upfront cost by up to £550. A family of four in Harrogate using an average of 210 litres of hot water per day can cut annual gas consumption by roughly 1,400 kWh—a saving of £160–£185 on current tariffs. Added to the initial rebate, most households break even in 2–3 years, after which the lower running costs are pure savings.
Do the rebates cover both gas and electric tankless water heaters?
Yes. The ECO4 and manufacturer cash-back apply to high-efficiency gas, LPG and electric tankless models. The Northern Gas Networks top-up grant is limited to natural-gas or LPG units. If you go electric, you’ll still qualify for up to £400 in combined incentives, provided the unit is A-rated for energy efficiency and installed by a Part P certified electrician.
