Free gas central heating

We're currently offering free gas central heating systems* to homeowners, and grants towards the cost of gas central heating to private landlords, whose homes currently lack gas central heating.

If you’re a homeowner and on a low income, or a private landlord whose tenant is on a low income, and:

  • you don’t have a gas central heating system in your property
  • you have gas fires, electric storage heaters or coal fires as your main heating

then you could be eligible for a grant towards gas central heating.

To apply, contact us by filling in our online form below.
