What does the ECO4 grant cover?
The ECO4 grant has been designed to help property owners improve the insulation of their homes and install new renewable heating systems & Solar PV in the property.
Any home with an efficiency rating of ‘D’ or below will have to install loft, roof and exterior-facing cavity insulation before improving any existing heating technology installed in the home.
Why you should apply to the ECO4 scheme?
Experts have suggested that the recent energy crisis could push 8.5 million households into fuel poverty, meaning they’ll struggle to heat or power their homes.
By extending the ECO scheme for another four years, the UK Government could help some of these vulnerable people get through the difficult times ahead.
For more information about the ECO4 Retrofit Scheme and to find out if you qualify for government-funded support, fill out our contact form and our dedicated ECO4 team will be in touch.
