Frequently asked questions:
How does the ECO Scheme work?
As part of ECO, medium and larger energy suppliers fund the installation of energy-efficient measures in British households. This helps support the government initiative of tackling fuel poverty and reducing carbon emissions.
The current scheme, ECO3, has one obligation to follow – the Home Heating Cost Reduction Obligation (HHCRO) – which requires energy suppliers to promote the installation of measures that lead to financial savings on energy bills. Find out more here.

How much will it cost to replace my oil boiler?
The cost for a new boiler will vary, but if your existing oil boiler is over 10 years old, it could be approaching its ‘end of life’. As a result, repairs could be more severe and breakdowns more frequent.
With us, you could choose to spread your payments over 12 months, interest free, or you may even qualify for a government grant towards the full or partial cost of replacing your oil boiler, through the ECO Scheme.
