How do I qualify for a free boiler grant?
Qualifying homeowners, and tenants in private rented property (but not those in council run properties), who claim one or more of the listed benefit types could be entitled to a free replacement boiler grant under the Government’s ECO4 Scheme. If you qualify, then the process will be handled end-to-end by our team of professional energy advisors. Don’t worry if you don’t qualify for a free boiler grant; you may still be entitled to a subsidised boiler or a discount off a new boiler installation.
Free boiler grants are provided by the ‘Big Six’ energy suppliers – Scottish Power, British Gas, E.ON, EDF, SSE and nPower – through the Government ECO4 Scheme, delivering you a brand new boiler for free at a fraction of the price. The scheme is open to UK homeowners and some tenants, and you could take advantage, just like many households already have. To find out if you qualify, simply enter your postcode; it won’t take more than 60 seconds.
There are a few requirements that you’ll need to meet in order to qualify for the government ECO4 scheme. First of all, you must be a homeowner (or private tenant) . As well as this, it’s vital that your boiler is at least seven years in age, since it is deemed to be more worthwhile to repair newer boilers rather than completely replacing them. Lastly, you must be in receipt of one or more of the listed benefit types to qualify for the homeowner boiler scheme:
- Child Tax Credit
- Income related Employment Support Allowance
- Income based Job Seekers Allowance
- Income Support
- Pension Guaranteed Credit (excludes Savings Credit)
- Working Tax Credit
- Universal Credit
- Disability Living Allowance
- Personal Independence Payment
- Attendance Allowance
- Carer’s Allowance
- Severe Disablement Allowance
- Industrial Injuries Disablement Benefits
- Ministry of Justice Benefits (administered by Veterans UK)
- War Pensions Mobility Supplement
- Constant Attendance Allowance
- Armed Forces Independence Payment
- Child Benefit
If you or anyone within your household receives one or more of the above listed benefit types provided by the UK government, then it’s highly likely that you’re in line to receive a free boiler grant through the government boiler scheme. All you need to do is take a few moments to find out whether you’re eligible today, and then we’ll handle the rest.
Even if you aren’t in receipt of any benefits, there are alternative options for example “Buy now, pay later” with discounted costs, please contact us for further information.
What are the benefits of the free boiler grant scheme?
The homeowner boiler scheme was initiated in order to provide eligible occupants across the UK with efficient and affordable heating. Our research has shown that boiler models that are over seven years in age only operate at around 65% of their full efficiency. This means that as much as 35p of every pound spent on heating costs is being wasted. As a comparison, your new A-rated boiler would run at no less than 90% efficiency, meaning a loss of 10p per pound at most.
Aside from the financial benefits, having a new boiler installed can also be extremely beneficial to the environment. Using a new energy efficient boiler means that less energy is required to heat a home and therefore less carbon emissions are produced. This has the impact of reducing an individual household’s carbon footprint, in the process aiding the government’s overall aim of drastically reducing carbon emissions across the UK.
There are clearly a range of benefits to this free boiler grant scheme in the UK, so if you qualify through having a boiler older than seven years, by being a homeowner/private tenant, and by currently receiving one or more of the major government benefits listed on our site, then it is well worth beginning the application process. Even if you do not qualify for a boiler grant, there may still be helpful access to a discount on your next boiler, which could still be of great financial benefit in terms of having a brand new energy efficient boiler installed, as well as major energy cost and environmental savings.
