ROOM IN ROOF INSULATION GRANT - SIMPLI GREEN

Room-in-Roof Insulation Grant

An Overview

In the UK, the Room in Roof Insulation Grant is part of the Government’s initiative to help homeowners and tenants improve energy efficiency. This type of insulation is specifically for homes with a liveable roof space, like an attic bedroom, and helps to reduce heating costs.

Insulating a room in the roof is different from standard loft insulation, as it involves insulating the roof slopes, gable walls, and dormers to create a warm, comfortable living space.

Key Points About the Insulation Grant

Eligibility:

The grant is typically available to homeowners and private tenants (with landlord permission).

Eligibility is often income-dependent or based on receiving certain benefits.

The property may need to meet other energy-related criteria.

Types of Insulation Covered:

The grant covers insulation for existing rooms in the roof, including the sloping ceiling, gable walls, dormer windows, and any walls that separate the room from unheated spaces.

Funding Programs:

The Energy Company Obligation (ECO) scheme is a primary source of funding, where large energy companies fund these improvements.

While the Green Homes Grant has closed, new schemes may emerge. It's best to check for recent updates.

Benefits of Home Insulation

Reduced Energy Bills: Proper insulation prevents heat loss, lowering your heating costs.

Increased Comfort: Insulation keeps the room warmer in winter and cooler in summer.

Environmental Impact: It reduces your carbon footprint by lowering energy consumption.

The Great British Insulation Scheme (GBIS)

The Great British Insulation Scheme is a government initiative aimed at improving home energy efficiency across the UK. It was introduced to help tackle rising energy costs, reduce carbon emissions, and assist homeowners, supporting the UK’s commitment to net-zero emissions by 2050.

The scheme typically offers free or subsidized insulation to lower-income and vulnerable households. Eligibility can vary based on income, property type, and location. Improvements can include cavity wall insulation, loft insulation, and other energy-saving measures.

The Great British Insulation Scheme (GBIS) and ECO4

The Great British Insulation Scheme program is part of broader efforts under the Energy Company Obligation (ECO) scheme, which requires larger energy suppliers to help reduce carbon emissions and fuel poverty.

Key benefits of the scheme include:

Reduced energy bills: Insulating homes dramatically reduces heating costs by improving heat retention.

Improved comfort: Better insulation means warmer homes in winter and cooler homes in summer.

Environmental impact: Lower energy usage reduces carbon emissions, helping to meet environmental targets.
