Everyones awareness of how environmentally friendly our world is has increased a
considerable amount over the past few years and everyone is being urged to live their lives in a greener, more eco-friendly way. Some people may try to drive less which is a great way and the car scrappage scheme helped many people afford a new car. Now a similar scheme for the home has been released that helps homes with old boilers get a new, more eco-friendly model.
There are approximately 125,000 households that will benefit from the scheme that will help replace all G-rated boilers that are proving to be a drain on the environment with A-rated, energy efficient boilers that will help combat the problems that exist with our environment. To discover whether you have a boiler that will be eligible for the scrappage scheme you need to locate the unique identifier number which may be on the boiler itself or in the instruction manual.
Once you have located the number you should ring up the manufacturer to see if it is a G-rated boiler and if it is you are in luck as you could be eligible for a grant of up to 400. If you are unable to find the unique number then make sure you get a trained professional to find it as they will know where to look and should be able to find it easily. However you should find it easy to locate the unique identifier number and get the ball rolling on your new boiler.
If you have had a boiler installed before 2005 you check to see if you are eligible for a new, environmentally friendly boiler. It can help you reduce your emissions in your home which will reduce your bills and do your bit for the environment. The government have released this initiative in an attempt to hit environmental targets that have been set for 2020 and they hope that new boilers will cut the amount of emissions by around 140,000 tonnes which is a huge amount.
If you want to see if you can live a more eco-friendly home then search online where there are plenty of other options including double glazing and many more home improvements. Everyone is being urged to run a more environmentally friendly home and you could get financial help should you need a new boiler.
