The United Kingdom aims to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. As part of this initiative, homeowners in Wiltshire have a golden opportunity to transition to greener, more efficient heating systems. The ECO 4 scheme is a government-backed programme designed to make this transition possible and financially feasible.
The ECO 4 scheme is a government initiative that provides grants for air-source and ground-source heat pumps. These grants are not restricted to any specific demographic but are available to homeowners and tenants who meet certain criteria.
These include individuals on a low income, those claiming specific benefits, or those with health conditions exacerbated by cold conditions. Importantly, the grants target properties with an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating of G, F, or E.
Heat pumps are not just another heating system but a leap towards sustainability. Air-source and ground-source heat pumps are incredibly efficient, using renewable energy sources to heat your home. They are a low-carbon alternative to traditional fossil fuel-based systems, offering a double benefit of reducing your carbon footprint and energy bills.
Qualifying for an ECO 4 grant is straightforward. Your property must have an EPC rating between G and E. However, even if your property is rated higher, you may still qualify based on other criteria like low income or specific health conditions. The grant amount varies depending on individual circumstances but could cover installing a heat pump.
To apply for an ECO 4 grant, contact Eco-Home Network. The team will guide you through the Eligibility assessment and application process. You'll need to provide details about your property, income, and any benefits you're receiving. Once approved, an accredited installer will visit your property to carry out the installation, which the grant will cover.
