MCS Umbrella Scheme
Alpha has partnered with Q-Smart to make MCS compliance simple for installers, enabling them to offer fully accredited renewable heating solutions without the need to become MCS certified themselves.
As demand for low-carbon technologies continues to rise, this scheme provides installers with everything they need to deliver MCS-compliant installations, access government-backed incentives, and expand into the renewable energy market with confidence.
How it works
Through the MCS Umbrella Scheme, non-MCS certified installers can complete installations under Q-Smart’s accreditation. This means you can:
- Supply and fit renewable technologies with the reassurance of MCS compliance.
- Give customers access to Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) and ECO4 funding.
- Offer a complete, supported service from system design to aftercare.
By operating under our Umbrella Scheme, we’ll guide you through each install, managing all documentation to ensure you meet the highest standards of install, MCS requirements and timeframes.
What’s included
The Alpha–Q-Smart partnership provides a full-service support package:
- Supply of renewable technologies – heat pumps, solar PV, cylinders, and accessories
- Technical support for system design and sizing
- Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) and ECO4 grant management
- MCS umbrella certification and QMS compliance
- Deposit protection scheme and payment processing
- Customer portal for full visibility and document access
- Warranty, insurance, and servicing support
