Many UK homeowners and residents are keen to improve the energy efficiency of their homes, but may not have the financial resources to do so. Fortunately, the Flex Scheme is now available to provide grants for insulation and heating upgrades, and the eligibility requirements have been expanded. Previously, only those who were claiming benefits were able to access these grants, but now, with the new Eco 4 Scheme, more non-benefit claimants are able to qualify.
Under this new scheme, grants are available for Gas Central Heating, Air Source Heat Pumps, High Heat Retention Storage Heaters, Solar Panels, and Insulation upgrades. These upgrades can make a significant difference in the energy efficiency of a home and can lead to savings on energy bills. Homeowners with properties that have an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating of E or below and a gross household income below £31,000 may be eligible for these fully-funded grants.
The scheme is currently available in several regions across the UK, including Amber Valley, Ashfield, Barrow in Furness, Bath and north east Somerset, Bristol city, Bolsover, Chesterfield, Conwy, Denbigshire, Derbyshire Dales, Doncaster, Dudley, Durham, Erewash, Flintshire, Fylde, Halton, High Peak, Knowsley, Leicester city, Mednip, North East Derbyshire, South Derbyshire, and Wolverhampton.
It’s worth noting that with energy prices on the rise, now is an excellent time to consider upgrading your heating system and insulation. By taking advantage of the grants available through the Flex Scheme, homeowners can potentially save hundreds of pounds on their annual energy bills. Warmer Home UK is an approved provider of these heating grants, and they are currently accepting applications for grant qualification on their website.
By improving the energy efficiency of their homes, residents can not only save money but also help to reduce their carbon footprint. So, if you’re a homeowner or resident in one of the eligible regions and are interested in upgrading your heating and insulation, now is the time to explore the options available through the Flex Scheme.
