Hot Insulation Offers

The temperature isn’t the only thing that’s rising at the moment. Energy bills are also set to soar with three of the ‘big six’ utility companies recently announcing large price rises, and the other three expected to follow soon. So it’s a good thing that most borough, district and city councils in Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire offer great deals on insulation for all private householders.
 
In many areas prices start from just £49 for loft insulation. If you are aged over 70 (or 65 in some areas) or in receipt of certain benefits you won’t have to pay anything for loft and cavity wall insulation. All private households – whether owned or rented – are eligible, although renters will need their landlord’s permission.
 
Some schemes can also help with solid wall insulation, replacement heating systems, renewables, free items and other measures that will make your home easier and cheaper to heat.
 
The need to be energy efficient is more pressing than ever.  The subsidies currently provided by local authorities won’t be available after the end of 2012 and the government have yet to announce the details of the incentives that will replace them.
 
Hard as it is to believe in the current heat wave, in just a few months we’ll all be turning on the heating as the temperature drops. Insulating your home now is a good way to make sure you’re ready for winter before it arrives and some schemes even have special summer offers.
