How to apply for Boiler Replacement Scheme

Step 1

• Contact your local grants office to request an application pack
• We will send you an Application Form and Boiler Installer Form.

Step 2

• Speak to your preferred installer about the type of boiler and controls that will best suit your needs
• Ask your installer to complete the Boiler Installer Form

Step 3

• Return your completed Application Form and the Boiler Installer Form with supporting documentation to your local Grants Office
• We will determine if you qualify for help under the Boiler Replacement Scheme - we may inspect your existing boiler before written approval is given.

Remember you MUST NOT start work until you have received written permission to do so

Step 4

• If you qualify and your boiler is eligible we will send you a letter approving the installation of a new boiler and the amount of allowance (grant aid) you will receive.

Step 5

• Contact Building Control at your local Council for Building Control Approval

Step 6

• When the work has been completed contact Building Control at your local Council to let them know.  They will inspect the work and award a Building Control Certificate.
• You, or your installer, must send the following documents to your local Grants office:
• Notification of Completion of Works form;
• Building Control Completion Certificate;
• Installer’s detailed invoice showing the name of the scheme and full details of all work carried out;
• Completed BACS form (this is the instruction to pay allowance into a bank account); and, if required,
• Planning Approval certificate.

Step 7

• We may arrange to inspect the work carried out at your home before payment
• Payment will be made by BACS to the bank account which you nominated
