First Time Central Heating Grants from the UK ECO4 Scheme
First Time Central Heating (FTCH) Grants are available for installation of Central Heating Systems for homes which do not have or never previously had any Central Heating Systems. Not only does it improve overall comfort, but it also plays a key role in boosting a property’s Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating, which is vital when selling or renting a home.
At ECO4 Energy we understand winters can be tough and having to rely on inefficient heating systems not only increase Energy Bills but also does not produce heat. Therefore, we provide Fully-Funded and Reliable solutions to make your homes more energy-efficient and cut your Bills by 10X.
