How to save money with a heat pump tariff 

Heat pumps already have lower running costs than gas or oil boilers. A heat pump tariff is likely to bring your bills down even further. 

A 2-3-bedroom home, heated by a 12kW air source heat pump, could save an estimated £135* a year through using off-peak electricity efficiently. This saving can be achieved by: 

  • Leaving the heat pump to operate as usual, without rescheduling how it heats your home. This is because the Good Energy tariff is designed around actual heat pump usage patterns.  
  • Reschedule water heating to your off-peak periods view our guides to adjusting hot water settings on the Midea and Samsung heat pumps installed by Good Energy. 

Together, these two elements would save you around £235. Subtracting £100 to account for higher peak electricity usage rates leaves an overall saving of around £135.  

Your specific savings will depend on your electricity usage patterns, current tariff rates and how efficiently you’re able to use your off-peak periods. Larger homes with bigger heat pumps are likely to save more.
