As the UK government continues to push for a net zero carbon emission target by 2050, it is important that we all take steps towards reducing our carbon footprint. One of the most effective ways to do this is by upgrading to modern, low-carbon heating systems such as Air-source and ground-source heat pumps. At Eco-home Network, we are committed to helping homeowners transition to more sustainable and energy-efficient heating solutions.
Through the ECO 4 scheme, we offer Air-source and ground-source heat pump grants to eligible homeowners and tenants across the UK. These grants are available to people who claim an eligible benefit, are on a low income, or have an illness which is affected by the cold. The grants are only available for properties which have an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating of G, F or E.
Eco-Home Network is working with homeowners in Halifax and Brighouse in West Yorkshire to claim ECO 4 grants using the government's ECO scheme. Suitable households can now obtain an ECO 4 grant depending on their current circumstances, property type, and EPC rating.
Air-source heat pumps work by extracting heat from the outside air and using it to heat your home. Ground-source heat pumps work in a similar way, but extract heat from the ground instead. Both types of heat pumps are highly efficient and can help to significantly reduce your energy bills. They are also more environmentally friendly than traditional heating systems, as they do not produce carbon emissions.
If you are eligible for an ECO 4 grant, you could receive funding towards the cost of installing an air-source or ground-source heat pump in your home. The amount of funding you receive will depend on a number of factors, including your income, the size of your property, and your current heating system.
To apply for an ECO 4 grant, you will need to provide some basic information about your property and your current heating system. This will include details such as your EPC rating, the type of heating system you currently have, and your annual energy usage. Once we have received this information, we will be able to assess your Eligibility for a grant and provide you with a quote for the cost of installing a heat pump.
If you decide to go ahead with the installation, our team of experienced installers will work with you to ensure that the process is as smooth and hassle-free as possible. We will also provide you with ongoing support and maintenance to ensure that your heat pump continues to operate efficiently and effectively.
In addition to reducing your carbon footprint and saving you money on your energy bills, installing a heat pump in your home can also increase the value of your property. This is because heat pumps are seen as a desirable feature by many homebuyers, particularly those who are concerned about the environment and want to reduce their carbon footprint.
At Eco-home Network, we are committed to helping homeowners in Halifax and Brighouse in West Yorkshire transition to more sustainable and energy-efficient heating solutions. Contact us today to find out more about our ECO 4 grants and how we can help you upgrade your heating system.
