Have You Taken Advantage Of The Home Insulation Scheme? If Not, Hurry to Avoid Disappointment
Did you know that under a Government initiative to reduce the UK's energy consumption, all homeowners/occupiers and private tenants (regardless of income) can benefit from grants of up to 100% towards the cost of insulation?
We are all eligible and if you haven't already applied, don't delay as the special offer for cavity wall insulation and loft insulation will end once the grant funding has been spent!
For more information on this offer (it is not very often you get something back from the Government), please see www.homeinsulationgrants.com
One Easy Step to A Warmer Home
Without loft insulation, your money could quite literally be going through the roof. Did you know that without loft insulation, you could be losing as much as 15% of your heat through your roof?
Despair not, as part of its £900m package to help homeowners, the Government hopes to provide an extra 25,000 UK households with free or half price insulation. Those that will benefit include pensioners and low-income families who are eligible to free installation. In order to find out if you are eligible, check the criteria set out at www.freeinsulation.co.uk and once you have done this, you should contact the National Insulation Association to get the work done by visiting www.nationalinsulationassociation.org.uk. With all good schemes, there is a catch... it is estimated that the NIA only has the capacity to complete work on 2% of eligible properties so don't delay.
Did you know that most heat loss from traditionally constructed homes is via the walls? It is estimated that up to 33% of heat is lost through walls but this can be addressed by fitting cavity wall insulation.
If you have had your loft insulated through this or any other scheme, please let us know.
