How does it work?

Once we have confirmed that you are eligible to receive the grant, we will arrange a free no obligation survey of your home and its existing heating system. After this survey we will be able to see the suitability and feasibility of the installation. We will also be able to assess if you need to contribute towards the cost or it can be done free of cost.
Once your new central heating system has been fitted, you can sit back and enjoy your new warm home with the benefit of lower energy bills as a result of your A-rated efficiency boiler. All of our boilers come with a 2-year manufacturer’s warranty for extra peace of mind.

We will then arrange a survey of your home and its existing heating system and the surveyor will complete the official grant application form on your behalf. You will then receive your funding.

How much could I be entitled to?

The funding provided is a grant, not a loan, therefore it doesn’t need to be repaid and could cover a large part – if not all – of the cost of installing central heating in your home. The average cost of having a central heating system installed privately is approximately £3,500, however, qualifying homeowners taking advantage of a heating grant can save them a considerable amount of money. If you receive one of the qualifying benefits, you could be eligible for free or a heavily subsidised first-time central heating in your home.
