By installing both cavity wall and loft insulation, we calculate that the average home can save up to £3901 a year on their energy bills.
If you own your own home or rent from a private landlord, then depending on the benefits status and age of the people living in your house, you can qualify for either heavily discounted or free2 home insulation. Some households are eligible for free insulation PLUS a cheque for £1003 as an incentive to have the insulation installed.

Who qualifies for discounted home insulation?
E.ON heavily subsidies the cost of home insulation, so everyone is able to take advantage of our insulation offers which start from £150. Unlike many other providers, we also cover the cost of extras such as scaffolding, up to a value of £200.
What other help is available?
We set up our CaringEnergy Fund to help our customers who are facing financial difficulty and who may not be eligible for financial help from Government schemes. Visit our CaringEnergy page for more information.

1 Installing these measures will reduce your heating bills and we calculate that this could be as much as £390 a year for a 1940's 3 bed semi detached home with a ten year old gas boiler and a gas price of 3.73p/kWh. More modern homes save less. Your individual savings depend on a large number of factors and the £390 quoted should be treated as a guide. Also experience tells us that many customers like to have a warmer home, making it more comfortable. This reduces the saving. But even allowing for this, both forms of insulation are a worth-while investment
2 Insulation is only free for loft insulation where there is less than 60mm existing insulation. Where existing loft insulation is between 60mm and 160mm, a top-up loft insulation product will be required. The cost of top-up loft insulation is £200. The £100 rebate offer will still apply.
3 £100.00 cheque will be issued within 8 weeks of the installer letting us know your insulation has been completed.
