Frequently asked questions

Is my EPC E rated home eligible for grants in BT7?

Yes. Homes with an EPC rating of E are explicitly targeted by the Warm Homes Plan. If your BT7 property is rated E and your household receives a qualifying benefit, you are likely to be eligible for funded improvements. Submit the form to confirm what you qualify for.

What does an EPC rating of E mean?

An EPC rating of E means your home falls in the 39 to 54 range on the energy efficiency scale. It indicates poor insulation and above-average energy use, typically resulting in higher heating bills. The Warm Homes Plan uses EPC ratings to prioritise homes where funded improvements will make the greatest difference.

What improvements could an EPC E home in BT7 receive?

Common measures for EPC E homes include loft insulation, cavity or solid wall insulation, and heating system upgrades. In some cases solar panels and smart heating controls are also funded. The specific combination is determined by a free survey of your property.

Will improvements raise my EPC rating?

Yes. Insulation and heating upgrades funded under the Warm Homes Plan are specifically designed to improve a property's energy performance. Many EPC E homes move to a C or D rating after a full package of measures, resulting in lower energy bills and a warmer home.

Do I need to know my EPC rating before applying?

No. If you are unsure of your BT7 property's EPC rating, you can check it free on the government's EPC register. Alternatively, submit the eligibility form and the installer will confirm your rating as part of the free survey process.

Is the eligibility check free?

Yes. The form is free and takes about 60 seconds. If you pre-qualify, an accredited installer in BT7 will contact you to arrange a free home survey.
