The Energy Company Obligation (ECO) is a government scheme that requires energy companies to fund free home upgrades—like insulation and heating systems—for eligible UK households. The current phase, ECO4, runs until March 2026 and focuses on making homes more energy efficient to reduce fuel poverty and carbon emissions.

An energy-efficient home means:

  • Lower energy bills (up to £800/year in savings)
  • A warmer, healthier living space
  • Increased property value and EPC rating
  • Reduced carbon footprint

It’s a win for your wallet, your health, and the environment.

Old boilers (10+ years) are often inefficient and expensive to run. Replacing them with a modern A-rated condensing boiler helps:

  • Cut heating bills by hundreds of pounds per year
  • Improve reliability and heat distribution
  • Reduce carbon emissions

Under ECO4, you could get a new boiler completely free if you qualify.
