Get free loft insulation from E.ON

The typical installation cost of loft insulation is £930and depending on your eligibility, we may be able to install it for you for free. We're working in partnership with the government and local councils to deliver free loft insulation to qualifying homes across the UK through green homes funding schemes, where you may be eligible for free loft insulation. These energy efficiency schemes are in place to help homeowners and private renters on a low-income or a means-tested benefit, to improve the energy efficiency of their homes.

Did you know, that a quarter1 of the heat generated in your home could be lost through your roof if your loft or roof space isn't properly insulated?

Most homes in the UK are insulated, but not always to the recommended level of 270mm. Once at this depth, it could help you save on your energy costs. Your loft or roof space could be a hidden cost to your heating bills, and it can be easily dealt with for free through one of our grants or funding options if you qualify.

You could be eligible for other energy efficiency measures. Learn more about grants and funding.

What is an EPC rating?

Every home in the UK has an energy efficiency rating called an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC). The EPC provides a property with a rating from A, being the most efficient, to G, being the least efficient. So improving your home's EPC rating will help reduce your energy bills and cut down on your carbon emissions, and it could also increase the value of your home. You can check your EPC rating here.
