First Time Central Heating Grants

Installing central heating for the first time can be expensive, deterring many from proceeding with the installation. However, the potential availability of a FREE heating grant can eliminate financial concerns. To qualify, the homeowner or resident must receive one of the specified benefits, or the property must meet the LA Flex criteria.

Upon confirmation of your grant eligibility, we will coordinate a free, no-obligation survey of your property by one of our Gas Safe registered installers. 

Our network of installers includes professionals approved by Vaillant, Worcester Bosch, Ideal, and Glow-worm. All boiler installations are performed by fully qualified, insured, and Gas Safe approved installers. Moreover, every system we install comes with a minimum 2-year warranty.

Once your new central heating system is operational, you’ll instantly enjoy the dual benefits of a warmer home and reduced energy bills, courtesy of your new A-rated, efficient central heating system.
