Sign up for free home insulation

Every single resident in Stratford-on-Avon District is being offered a fantastic energy saving opportunity – free loft and cavity wall insulation, regardless of age or income.

District residents have until the end of April 2012 to take advantage of this offer from Stratford-on-Avon District Council in partnership with ROCKWARM and Act on Energy.

Whether you're a homeowner or renting your property, if you live in the Stratford-on-Avon District Council area, then you can get loft and cavity wall insulation installed completely free of charge.  The free insulation measures will help keep homes warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer.  Taking up the offer could save each household up to £265 on their fuel bill each year and reduce each household's carbon emissions by 3,200 tonnes over 25 years.

Councillor Valerie Hobbs, Enterprise, Housing & Revenues Portfolio says: “This is a great offer which will benefit every single household in Stratford-on-Avon District.  Installing energy efficiency measures is an effective way of reducing heating bills, as well as being good for the environment.  I would encourage all local residents, who have not yet got their cavity walls or lofts insulated, to take advantage of this offer and have them fitted."

Anyone who would like to take advantage of the scheme should contact ROCKWARM to arrange a free home insulation survey on 02476 345554 or call free on 0800 132689.

The offer is open to everyone living in Stratford District, but only when there is LESS THAN 60mm of existing insulation.  The insulation measures are free for homes where the cavity is up to 120 square metres or 80 square metres for a loft.  If a home is bigger, then the householder will have to pay the difference. 

The free loft and cavity wall insulation offer is being paid for through the Government's Carbon Emissions Reduction Targets (CERT) funding, which obliges every energy company in the UK to pay for measures to reduce carbon emissions.

Loft insulation could save a household £145 a year on fuel bills.

Cavity wall insulation could save £110 a year.
