Warm Front
Since 2001 Warm Front has helped thousands of people receive insulation and heating improvements to make their homes warmer, healthier and more energy-efficient. On Monday 5th December 2005, the Chancellor made a pre-budget announcement regarding Government’s intention to offer a ¬£300 grant to pensioners who would not otherwise be eligible for Warm Front .
If you are over 60, own or privately rent your home and do not qualify for a Warm Front Grant because you do not receive a relevant benefit, you may be eligible for a £300 rebate.
This rebate is available to help towards repairing or replacing an inoperable system or installing a new central heating system. The cost of work must be over £300 Inc VAT and is only available in English Local Authority Areas
To Apply
All customers can apply via the eaga Contact Centre on 0800 316 2808. Lines are open Monday to Friday from 8am to 6pm and on Saturday from 9am to 5pm. Or, you can write to us at the following address: eaga plc, Freepost NAT 13708, Newcastle upon Tyne NE2 1ZL. You do not need to use a stamp.
Customers who are not eligible for Warm Front will be registered for the Warm Front £300 Heating Rebate Scheme.
A Benefit Entitlement Check (BEC) will be offered. If the BEC identifies Warm Front qualifying benefits, the householder will be routed to this scheme. If no benefits are identified, or the customer refuses the Check, they will be passed to the Warm Front £300 Heating Rebate Scheme.
