ECO4 Scheme
LA Flex
Participating local authorities will have to ensure these are households in private tenure living either in fuel poverty or living on a low income and who are particularly vulnerable to the effects of living in the cold. In addition, some non-fuel poor homes will be allowed for solid wall insulation projects, if a proportion of the households in the project are in fuel poverty or living in the cold.

Heating
Free, replacement electric storage heaters are available via ECO 4 scheme introduced by the UK Government in the Autumn of 2018 and will run until the year 2022 reducing heating costs and their carbon footprint.
First-time central heating (FTCH)
Heating your home accounts for more than half of your total energy use (around 55%), so your boiler installation shouldn’t be a half-hearted decision!
Air Source Heat Pump
You’re probably using electricity to heat your home if you live in an area that doesn’t have a gas connection, and this is normally in the form of an electric storage heater.
