The boiler upgrade scheme has been introduced since July 2022 and is available until 31st March 2026. The scheme is in place to remove old boilers and heating systems that have high carbon emissions and potentially cause costly heating and energy bills. This makes it a fantastic solution for households struggling to pay energy bills. The boiler grant will cover most or all the cost and is available throughout England and Wales. For People in Scotland or Northern Ireland, there are other schemes available.
Whilst the boiler grant is available across England, it is not available to everyone. When applying for the boiler grant in Burnley, you must meet certain criteria to be eligible. This will decide if the grant covers part of your costs, the majority or all of what you pay. Our team are happy to advise you on whether you are eligible, whilst also assessing your heating systems to ensure they are suitable for an upgrade.
