Heat Pump Demand High as New Subsidy Phase Approaches in Lithuania

Lithuania is preparing for a new round of subsidies for air-to-water heat pumps, with the next phase of funding set to begin on October 1. UAB „Ecoenergija.lt“ is encouraging interested individuals to research equipment and register for application assistance now to be ready for the upcoming call.

The company highlights that with the available grants, individuals can recover up to 90% of the purchase price for an air-to-water heat pump. They also offer favorable installment plans, including a new option allowing customers to pay 1000 euros in 10 monthly installments of 100 euros without any additional interest.

"Many of our clients say they never thought heating could be so simple," said Gintautas Liutkus, head of „Ecoenergija.lt“. He noted that customers are pleased with the convenience of not needing to manage firewood, clean chimneys, or deal with ash and temperature fluctuations in the summer. They can control heating and temperature settings with just a few buttons.

Air-to-water heat pump systems are promoted as a modern and efficient heating method, easy to install, operate, and maintain. The "three-in-one" functionality allows for heating floors, radiators, and providing hot water. The systems can be remotely regulated, offering convenience for those who travel frequently. Latest generation heat pumps boast high energy efficiency, capable of producing hot water up to 75°C, making them suitable for both new and older homes or renovated spaces.

Eligibility for the subsidy extends to individuals who own a house, garden house, or apartment and wish to replace boilers using fossil fuels like firewood, pellets, peat, sawdust briquettes, natural gas, diesel, or coal with air-to-water heat pumps. A new advantage is that owners are not required to discard their old boiler, allowing for a dual-system setup.
