Mid Suffolk District Council launches ‘Cosy Homes’
Cosy Homes is designed to raise the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating of homes across the district – helping properties become more efficient, reduce carbon emissions and lower energy bills.
Private sector homes and residents living in a property with an EPC rating of D can apply for funding to help raise the rating of their home to an EPC C rating.
You could be eligible for funding to carry out a few simple measures that will make your home cosier and more energy efficient. This could include work such as loft insulation, cavity wall insulation and ventilation.
To qualify, properties and owners will need:
• An EPC rating of D .
• An annual household income under £60k.
• Savings of no more than £16k.
• To be in Council Tax bands A-E.
• Insulation options must be viable in the property.
If you are eligible Mid Suffolk District Council will arrange for Aran Insulation, us, to contact you to carry out a PAS 2035 survey of your home. This will consider the technical and feasible insulation options suitable for your home.
