Heat pumps are a key part of Germany's ecological energy strategy. From now on, funding is also available for Heiko heat pumps!
Heiko is opening a new chapter in heat pump subsidies. From now on, THERMAL and THERMAL Plus devices are available on the BAFA list, which qualifies them for government funding in Germany.
Germany, a leader in the use of renewable energy sources, offers favorable support for homeowners and businesses in the field of energy management. Heat pumps are widely recognized as one of the most efficient solutions for heating buildings. Now, thanks to the financial support offered by BAFA, these modern technologies will become even more accessible to German consumers.
What does BAFA funding cover?:
• Purchase of a heat pump
• Installation of a system with a heat pump
How much is available for a heat pump in the BAFA program?:
The program is attracting significant interest from building owners who can receive up to 40% of the investment costs for heating system modernization. The basic level of funding is 25%, an additional 10% can be obtained if a still functional heating system (e.g., oil or gas) is completely replaced by a heat pump. Another 5%, according to regulations starting from January 2023, will be granted for the purchase of a heat pump using natural refrigerants. The grant is limited – up to a maximum of 60,000 euros per building.

BAFA - Funding Requirements
Every building-related measure aimed at improving energy efficiency is eligible under the BAFA program. However, the requirements that a specific device must meet from the special list are restrictive – this is to ensure support for the installation of high-quality devices from proven manufacturers. Air heat pumps must meet the following requirements, among others:
- Limited CO2 emissions at a nominal output of >200 mg/m3;
- Thermal efficiency of more than 90%;
- Limited fine dust emissions <20 mg/m3.
Funding can be applied for by owners of residential buildings, property managers, organizations, and even municipalities. Details at www.bafa.de.
