First Time Central Heating

First Time Central Heating Grants are available for installing central heating systems in homes that currently do not have, and have never had a central heating system.

What is a First Time Central Heating grant?

A First Time Central Heating Grant is a financial aid program designed to help households without a central heating system install one for the first time. These grants are typically part of government or energy company initiatives aimed at improving energy efficiency and reducing heating costs for low-income or vulnerable households. The grant covers the cost of installing a new central heating system, including radiators, pipework, and a boiler making it more affordable for eligible homeowners to upgrade from inefficient or outdated heating methods to a more efficient central heating system.

How does First Time Central Heating work?

First Time Central Heating is powered by a gas boiler which emits heat via radiators and provides instant hot water. The boiler heats water which is then pumped through pipes to radiators to produce heat. The water is pumped through the pipes from the boiler on a continuous loop to ensure that the water retains the heat.

The benefits of a First time Central Heating grant

Installing First Time Central Heating through the government grant can significantly reduce your energy bills. Central heating systems are much more efficient at warming your entire home compared to electric heaters or older systems, helping you save money in the long run by using less energy to maintain a comfortable temperature.
With central heating, you can enjoy consistent warmth throughout your entire home, eliminating cold spots in certain rooms. The system heats each space evenly, ensuring every part of your home remains at a cozy and comfortable temperature during colder months.
Homes with central heating are more attractive to potential buyers. Installing First Time Central Heating can boost your property’s value, making it a sound investment not just for your comfort but for the future resale of your home.
A properly heated home reduces the risk of dampness and mold, which can have negative effects on your health, particularly on the respiratory system. Central heating helps create a healthier living environment by maintaining a warm, dry atmosphere and improving indoor air quality.
First Time Central Heating systems often come with modern programmable thermostats, giving you full control over your home’s temperature. You can schedule heating based on your routine, ensuring your home is warm when you need it most while avoiding unnecessary energy use when you’re out or asleep.
Modern central heating systems are designed to be energy-efficient, which means they use less fuel to generate the same level of warmth. This not only reduces your energy consumption but also helps lower your household’s carbon footprint, making your home more environmentally friendly.
