No benefits required
Would you like your old inefficient boiler replaced, apply today for your fully funded boiler replacement. You may qualify under the Government’s ECO scheme in 2021.
Best of all it’s completely free! If you qualify, our friendly team will be in touch within 24 hours to arrange your free survey.
Under the current scheme your property must have at least 50% suspended floorboards on the ground floor to allow underfloor insulation to be installed, your boiler must be 7+ years old, boilers under 7 years old are excluded as the scheme makes the assumption that it will be more cost effective to repair your current boiler, than to have it replaced and you must be an owner occupier to qualify. All three of these criteria must be satisfied as both energy efficiency measures must be installed to improve the energy performance of the property enough to justify the cost of the measures.
Underfloor insulation will prevent heat loss and help eliminate drafts from entering via the gaps between the floor and the ground. Insulation impedes temperature change, meaning less energy is needed to maintain your chosen temperature. More than 10 percent of an average home’s heat is lost through the floor. This percentage can be much higher in older homes with hardwood floors—or floors made of other materials that conduct heat and cold. By preventing this heat loss with underfloor insulation, homeowners will see an energy bill savings of at least 10 percent 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.
Research has shown that boiler models that are seven years or more 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.
