Sense check on Aira quote? 6kW, 200L cylinder + 5 rads. (£14.7k gross / £5.7k net after £9k BUS)
Hi everyone,
I’m looking for a quick sanity check on a quote I’ve received from Aira. I’m quite keen to move forward with them, but I have a nagging suspicion that their gross pricing is heavily inflated to swallow up the extra BUs grant (increasing to £9,000 for this with oil boilers)
They quote they’ve given me:
Total Gross Price: £14,734 (This is after I negotiated them down by £1,000 from their first offer).
Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) Grant: -£9,000 (They've offered to take this off the invoice immediately and reclaim it themselves when available).
Final price: £5,734
The Scope of Work:
6 kW Aira heat pump
200L hot water cylinder
5 standard radiator upgrades
Has anyone else negotiated with Aira recently for a similar-sized system?
Note: for what it's worth we had Octopus round who basically weren't interested in doing it, because we have a large conservatory, so our setup may be a little bit more complicated..
Thanks in advance!
