In an effort to reduce carbon emissions and increase properties’ EPC rating, the UK government has launched the ECO4 scheme, which aims to provide eligible households with free insulation and energy efficiency upgrades.
The scheme is targeted at low-income households and those living in fuel poverty and is designed to help:
There is a big variety of measures that can be installed via the ECO4 scheme, some of the key ones include:
Other measures that can be installed under the ECO4 scheme include flat & pitched roof insulation, room-in-roof insulation, floor insulation, solar PV, park home insulation and more.
ECO4 is available for properties with an EPC rating of E, F, or G, and the occupants are on one of the following benefits:
To apply for the ECO4 scheme, it’s best for eligible households to get in touch with an accredited installer who will take care of the entire process. This ensures that the process runs smoothly and that all the necessary measures are installed correctly.
The installer will carry out an assessment of the property to determine which energy efficiency measures are needed. They will then provide advice on the most appropriate measures and arrange for the installation of the chosen measures.
In conclusion, the UK government's ECO4 scheme is an important initiative that provides a range of benefits for eligible households. By reducing energy bills, improving living conditions, and promoting sustainable living, this scheme helps to support low-income households while also contributing to the fight against rising carbon emissions.
If you are an eligible household, we encourage you to take advantage of this scheme and explore the free insulation and energy efficiency upgrades that are available to you. To get started, we recommend getting in touch with an
accredited installer who can guide you through the process and ensure that your upgrades are installed safely and efficiently.
