Following the arrival of the Government’s £5 million Heat Pump Training Grant, Baxi has launched its own installer incentive scheme, pairing the Government vouchers with Baxi Works points.
The Heat Training Grant supports trainees in England taking short training courses relevant to heat pumps and heat networks with grants of up to £500 towards eligible courses. Baxi has announced its offer of 15,000 Baxi Works loyalty points to installers receiving the Heat Training Grant.
The company will also support trainees with additional free CPD (Continuing Professional Development) and free supervised commissioning of their first heat pump installation for a limited period.
To be eligible, installers will need to complete an accredited Heat Pump Training Course with Baxi at the company’s Warwick, Dartford or Warrington training centres, and register a Baxi Air Source Heat Pump (ASHP) via Baxi Works. The points will then be credited to their account to spend on a range of items from the Reward Catalogue.
Harriet Evans, Renewables Director at Baxi, said: “With the Government scheme now launched, our points offer is also live and installers can start to benefit from this great skills initiative. Heat pump demand can only grow, so this is an ideal time for installers to get fully trained and accredited for heat pumps and secure future income from the transition to clean heat in homes.”
Harriet added: “The Government has an ambitious target for heat pumps to play a major role in heat decarbonisation. As responsible heating experts, we are committed to giving installers all the support they need to make sure their installs deliver optimum performance, efficiency and energy savings for their customers. Creating the opportunity to receive 15,000 valuable Baxi Works points is our latest way of giving installers support to get comfortable with heat pumps and be part of the clean heat revolution.”
The Government has allocated 65 grant places to Baxi. Installers can take full advantage of the Training Grant and Baxi’s offer by signing up to Baxi Works at www.baxi.co.uk/training or calling 0344 335 4207.
