Heating Grants

Warmfront Grants.

The Warmfront grant is the government scheme for insulation, and heating, and is run by EAGA (Energy Action Grants Agency). The scheme is funded by DEFRA and provides insulation and heating measures to people on various benefits and allowances up to the value of £2700 (£4000 if oil fired heating is required).

Warmfront will cover the following measures:

- Cavity wall insulation
- Loft insulation
- Draught proofing
- Low energy light bulbs
- Hot water tank jackets
- Gas/Oil Central heating/Electric heating where no heating exists
- Repair/replace existing heating if non-operational, condemned or working intermittently
- Conversion of solid fuel open fire to a glass fronted fire

DEAC has a direct web system with EAGA to allow us to refer people straight through to Warmfront, so referring through us is by far the easiest method.

If the cost of the work exceeds the grant then you may be able to have the excess paid by the local authority, please contact the local authority direct to see if they have funds available or ask us and we will advise you accordingly.

Warmfront £300 Heating Rebate.

The Warmfront £300 rebate scheme is for owner occupiers and private tenants who are over 60, and have no heating or a broken down/condemned boiler. People do not need to be on benefits to claim, work needs to be carried out by installers registered with the scheme – there is a £50 administration fee for the rebate which effectively reduces it to £250. However if you go through Aquacare they will currently pay the £50 too, if in doubt please call us and ask.

To find out more please contact EAGA on: (0800) 316 6012
