28 June 2024·4 min read·By Corby Boiler Installations

The government's Energy Company Obligation (ECO4) scheme provides free or heavily subsidised boiler replacements for eligible households. Here's how to check if you qualify.

Who qualifies for ECO4?

To qualify, you typically need to be receiving one or more means-tested benefits, including:

  • Universal Credit
  • Housing Benefit
  • Child Tax Credit (not including Child Benefit)
  • Working Tax Credit
  • Income Support
  • Pension Credit
  • Jobseeker's Allowance

Your property also needs to have an EPC rating of D, E, F, or G to qualify for full funding.

What does ECO4 cover?

ECO4 can cover the full cost of a replacement boiler for qualifying households. It may also cover other energy efficiency improvements like insulation.

How to apply

Contact us directly and we'll check your eligibility and handle the application on your behalf. Alternatively, visit the government's Simple Energy Advice website or contact Ofgem.

If you don't qualify for ECO4

Our 0% finance option means you can get a new boiler from £21/month with no deposit. For most non-qualifying households, this is the most accessible way to fund a new boiler without a large upfront payment.
