Boiler Grant Contact Form
The first stage of your boiler grant application is to provide us with a few details via boiler grant application form. This enables us to identify a domestic energy assessor in your area.
Free Boiler Survey
The Domestic Energy Assessor will check your boiler’s its energy performance to see if you are eligible for a boiler grant. To have a new replacement boiler installed your existing gas boiler must not be a condensing boiler. Your existing boiler must also be either over ten years old or must have a low energy efficiency rating.
Boiler Grant Qualification
The boiler grant survey will only take a short time. The assessor will also ask you to provide verification of your address. This will be via your mortgage statement or your tenancy lease. He will then fill in your details in the boiler grant application form.
Free Boiler Installation
If you qualify for a boiler grant the assessor will arrange a date for your free boiler to be installed. All boilers installed under the boiler grant scheme come with manufacturer’s warranty etc.
The new replacement boiler grants replace the old boiler scrappage scheme, which was phased out in 2012.
Free boiler grants are available for pensioners who receive state pension credit and for families in receipt of specific benefits and tax credits.
