MCS publishes updated version of MCS 031
16 February 2022
MCS has published an updated version of MCS 031 – the Heat Pump System Performance Estimate template.
Due to the Domestic Renewable Heat Incentive (DRHI) coming to an end on 31 March 2022 and with the volatility in energy prices, MCS identified a need to update MCS 031.
MCS 031 v3 removes any anomalies from the previous template and no longer provides financial information or DRHI data.
The template now enables installers to estimate the amount of electricity that might be consumed for a heat pump to deliver a given amount of heat.
Please note, installers can still use the template to convert figures to estimated running costs. However, they should follow any guidance or requirements stipulated by their consumer code.
The changes were agreed in conjunction with the MCS Heat Pump Working Group.
