First Time Central Heating Grants

First-Time Central Heating Grants in Reading

At Eco-Home Network, we're delighted to offer Reading residents the chance to receive a free first-time gas central heating system, thanks to the government-funded ECO scheme.

This grant is specifically designed for households that either lack a heating system or have one without a boiler and more than one radiator. If your home fits either of these descriptions, you're a prime candidate for this transformative grant.

The Affordable Warmth Scheme: A Win-Win for You and the Environment
