You (tenant or homeowner) may be eligible if you receive certain benefits like Income Support, Jobseeker's Allowance, or Universal Credit, and if your property has an EPC rating of D, E, F, or G. We can help you check your eligibility during a free home energy assessment.

ECO4 primarily targets private, owner-occupied homes and private rented homes. In some cases, social housing and park homes might also qualify.

Property Type and Heating System: The property’s EPC rating must be D, E, F, or G. Energy companies can allocate only 15% of their funding to Band D properties, so applications are accepted primarily for E, F, or G-rated properties.

Additionally:

◘ The main heating system can be gas central heating, LPG central heating, electric heating, oil central heating, or renewable heating.

◘ The property may have a separate hot water cylinder and insulation in the loft.

◘ Wall type (solid brick, cavity, or stone) and wall insulation are considered.

◘ The benefit received and heating options available also impact eligibility.

No! The ECO4 scheme does not consider income-related criteria to determine eligibility. Here are the key points of eligibility:

• If you are a low income household

• If any household member have any long-term or servere health conditions

• The tenant or household member must be on some form of benefits.
