"Heating boost" bonus

Verified 12 January 2024 - Directorate for Legal and Administrative Information (Prime Minister)

Do you want to replace your heating with a less energy-intensive installation? You can benefit from a financial assistance called “Hot Boost”. We will tell you what the conditions are and how to take advantage of them.

The Premium Heating Boost is financial assistance for the replacement of a non-condensing coal, oil or gas boiler with one of the following:

  • Efficient biomass boiler (boiler that uses an organic fuel such as wood and its derivatives)
  • Air/water heat pump
  • Water/water heat pump (geothermal heat pump)
  • Hybrid heat pump (system combining air/water heat pump and condensing boiler technology)
  • Combined solar system (system combining a solar panel and a storage balloon)
  • Connection to a renewable energy (ENR&R) heat network
  • High performance wood heating

To help you choose a new heating system, you can call on a consultant who specializes in home renovation work for free:

You can benefit from the bonus if you own or rent a detached house.

If you are a tenant, the landlord must authorize the work you wish to undertake. However, you do not have to provide a document justifying this agreement in order to benefit from the premium.

Your home must have been built more than 2 years ago.

This may be your principal residence or secondary.

Every households may benefit from the premium.

However, the amount of the bonus differs depending on the nature of the work you want to undertake and the level of your resources. Households with modest incomes benefit from a larger premium.

The revenues retained are reference tax revenue (RFR) of year N-2 (2022 for applications made in 2024).
