Do you own a house anywhere across the UK? Then there remains a possibility of availing of Eco Grants – a full-fledged fund offered by the government, particularly to elderly pensioners or those who sustain on child support and other similar ways to insulate their home.
The primary focus is to reduce the use of electricity, for which the government is spreading more awareness of insulating the walls, roofs, lofts and replacing the old boilers and furnaces with the trending ones, opting for solar instead of electricity made at nuclear plants or by burning fossil fuel and installing heat pumps instead of traditional HVAC systems.
Here are the five ways to uplift your UK property with Eco Grants—
Improve the indoors and outdoors with wall insulation
If your walls are not insulated, then there is a chance of leakage during rain and chilled air during winter. Therefore, despite having a furnace or a boiler, if you insulate both external and internal walls, especially with cavity, then the leakage and any pores will be restrained, and the thermal energy of your home will remain longer than the present time. Apply for internal and external wall insulation grants from the ECO Grants to get ample funds to insulate the walls without paying anything.
Get your roof & loft insulated to avoid leakage
Usually, the countryside homes across the United Kingdom have wooden roofs with proper inclinations downward on both sides to remove snow and help rainwater or dew to drain away easily. However, there are possibilities of having pores and leakage inside those panels over time. Therefore, applying for roofing grants for pensioners can only replace the old panels with fresh wooden panels, but will also provide insulation to keep the indoors more comfortable in every season.
Apply for boiler replacement
The ECO 4 Grants also provide the facility of replacing the old boiler with a technologically smarter one. Opt for this to save more energy. You also have to run the machine less after insulating the house with both internal and external insulation. Opt for cavity wall insulation Scotland for better results and longevity of your walls.
Install a heat pump
You might have heard of the heat pump technology. It is a smarter and innovative way of passing in fresh air inside. Apply for a heat pump grant from the ECO Grants and get funds for the service. Enjoy cool breeze in summer and warm air in winter inside your home.
Install solar panels
The best green energy is solar. So, if you are also interested in paying less for electricity bills and are concerned about protecting the environment by reducing your carbon footprint, then your first step should be installing solar.
Buy the best quality panels, ensuring less maintenance and longevity, with the ability to produce an ample energy supply from the sun’s radiation. Apply for the solar grants as well to improve your living and uplift your UK property with Eco Grants.
