What We Do

At Heat Geek, we are tackling one of the Europe’s biggest carbon contributors: home heating. Nearly 12% of all EU carbon emissions stems from home heating  – and that contribution is even bigger on a global scale. At Heat Geek, we are changing that. By simplifying a traditionally complex industry and revolutionising the technology used by installers, we’re making low-carbon heating mainstream. We have already prevented over 2,500 metric tonnes of carbon from entering our atmosphere as of May 2026, and we aren’t stopping there!

 

Join Us!

People are at the core of who we are and what we do. From decreasing homeowners’ energy bills to help with the cost of living, to empowering talented heating engineers to perform outstanding installations, to ensuring a greener world for all of us, we believe in the power of what we can all do together. – And we need passionate, talented, hard working people to be a part of this journey.
