Do I qualify for a free boiler?

If you receive income-related benefits, are a homeowner, and have an old, broken, or in-efficient boiler, you could qualify for a grant to help cover the costs of a new boiler.
As well as receiving the correct combination of benefits, you must have a gas boiler that’s at least over 10 years old. If it is less than 10 years old, the scheme makes an assumption that is is more cost effective to repair your old boiler, than it is to have it replaced via a grant.
Some of the benefits mean that you will qualify for a boiler grant automatically, with no other requirements. With some others, you may need to have an extra qualifying component such as being responsible for a child under 16, or, be of a certain age.
In summary:
- Be in receipt of income-related benefits
- Be a homeowner (grants are no longer available for landlords/private tenants)
- Have a mains gas boiler that is 10+ years old
