Home insulation is mandatory for the citizens of the UK. With the EPC certification made essential during the sale of a house more and more people are looking for cheap home insulation options. Free insulation grants are the price cuts given to the customers that vary from an amazing 50% to a whopping 100%! These free insulation grants are actually not loans, so you never have to pay back any amount of it at any stage of your life! Yet there are certain conditions under which you need to fall to enjoy 100% insulation grants.
Loft Grant Insulations:
Depending upon your property location, available grants, type of property, fuel type and the amount of insulation required to bring your loft insulation up to the mark laid down by current building regulations of 270mm the client contribution may vary anything between £99.00 and £349.00,
Cavity Wall Insulations:
Again here, all depending upon your location and available grants provided the property falls within the size parameters set by the various schemes, the client contributions may vary anything between £99.00 and £349.00,
Total costs waive off or free insulation grants:
Yet there are certain conditions under which the entire cost of insulation is waived off. They are as follows:
1. The first clause is- Attendance Allowance.
2. Second is -Child Tax Credit where the relevant income is equal to £15,597 or may be less.
3. Third is- Council Tax Benefit
4. Even Disability Living Allowance comes under this clause.
5. Those having Disablement Pension which includes constant attendance allowance are also eligible for it.
6. Those with Housing Benefit are also covered.
7. People with Income based Job Seekers Allowance can also get hold of free insulation grants.
8. People on Income Support are likely to get the 100%waive off.
9. Citizens also on State Pension Credit are eligible.
10. People on War Disablement Pension (which includes either a mobility supplement or constant attendance allowance) are given this grant.
11. Citizens on Working Tax Credit where the relevant income is £15,597.
12. Home Owners who are over 70 are entitled to free insulation irrespective of the income amount.
13. But mind you the free insulation is dependent on funding availability / first come first served. Please don’t mistake the funds to be unlimited.
