The short form would be; To qualify for an external wall insulation grant, you or someone in your household must be receiving one of the following benefits: Income Based Jobseekers Allowance (JSA) Income Related Employment & Support Allowance (ESA) Income Support (IS) Pension Credit Guarantee Credit, Working Tax Credit (WTC) Child Tax Credits (CTC) Universal Credit (UC) Housing Benefit, Pension Credit Savings Credit. The Long Form; Eligibility for an external wall insulation grant in the UK will vary depending on the specific grant program being applied for and the area in which you live. Eligibility for a grant to install external wall insulation will depend on factors such as: Income level: Grants are targeted at low-income households, so you must demonstrate that your household income falls under £31,000 per year to qualify. Heating upgrade – You must also qualify for a heating upgrade in order to be eligible for a grant for external wall insulation, they are not available on their own. Property ownership: Grants are only available to homeowners. Energy efficiency of the home: Your home will need a poor energy efficiency rating to qualify for a grant to install central heating. This can be an EPC (Energy Performance Certificate) of F or G. Benefits: You will need to be in receipt of certain benefits such as Pension credit, child tax credit, or working tax credit to be eligible for the grant. Type of walls: The property must have solid walls and not cavity walls. Type of heating: The property must have electric heating only, not gas heating. I hope this answers your question.
