Please read this before using guides, tools or case studies on this site.
General information only
EnergyFuture.org.uk publishes general educational information for UK homeowners considering low-carbon home upgrades. Nothing on this site is personal advice for your home, finances or legal position.
Not professional advice
- Not financial advice: we do not recommend products, loans or investments.
- Not legal advice: contract and consumer law vary by situation; consult qualified advisers if needed.
- Not technical design advice: we do not size systems, specify equipment or certify designs.
- Not installation advice: always use appropriately qualified installers and official standards.
Accuracy and changes
We aim for careful, balanced content but do not guarantee accuracy or completeness. Government schemes, grants, tariffs, VAT rules and energy prices change frequently. Verify important figures with official sources and qualified professionals before signing a contract or spending money.
Installers and sales claims
We discuss types of misleading claims and unclear comparisons in general terms. We do not make accusations against named installers unless content has been legally reviewed. Poor practice and fraud are not the same thing.
Calculators and tools
Quote checkers and calculators produce estimates only. They depend on the figures you enter and simplified assumptions. They do not verify installer calculations, MCS paperwork, system design or suitability for your property. Results are for discussion purposes, not contract acceptance or rejection.
Case studies
Case studies are anonymised illustrations. They are not proof that any particular company behaved unlawfully or incorrectly.
Your responsibility
You are responsible for decisions you make about quotes, contracts and home improvements. Use this site as one input alongside bills, official guidance, site surveys and professional advice where appropriate.
