The IAA Microgeneration Guarantee

Wed 1st November 2023
The IAA recognises the need to provide guarantees for consumers installing microgeneration technology including Air Source Heat Pumps, Ground Source Heat Pumps, Solar PV, Solar Heating and Battery Storage and some of the past short comings of the cover provided.

The IAA Microgeneration Guarantee provides the confidence that work is carried out to the highest standard, and should there be a failure in workmanship or design, The IAA is there to put it right regardless of the trading status of the installer.  

Net Zero 2050


The Government have declared a climate crisis and are committed to Net Zero carbon emissions by 2050 - domestic dwellings account for 17-19% of carbon emissions, only by tackling the energy efficiency of building fabric as a part of deep retrofit will we deliver Net Zero 2050.

Too often installer have suffered from the reputation of those lesser organisations who have served to profit from the industry whilst seeking lowest cost and lowest compliance options for delivery. The IAA is committed to building on the current first-class installers who already use CIGAs extensive offering and provide these services across the insulation industry as a whole. 

The IAA are commited to net zero and the future so much so we have created our own net zero pledge, sign up to The IAAs net zero pledge here: www.theiaa.co.uk/net-zero-2050/.
