Residents in the East Riding are being offered the opportunity to install cavity wall and loft insulation for just £99 to homeowners and private sector tenants.

Heat Insulation Ltd, a family owned, and local company established for 30 years, have gained access to funding to install the cavity wall insulation and loft insulation for just £99 each insulation installed. The funding is via a partnership between ScottishPower, Heat Insulation and East Riding of Yorkshire Council and is limited to a first come, first served basis.

Heat Insulation Ltd deliver insulation measures to thousands of homes in the Hull and East Riding area on behalf of the council, Hull City Council and various housing associations and landlords. During winter it is essential to keep warm and healthy and making your home more energy-efficient and insulated will help you achieve this.

Due to further partnership working, they are now also able to access funding to insulate rooms in roof spaces and internal wall insulation providing they fit specific criteria set out in Ofgem guidance. However, this service is NOT eligible for the £99 scheme and is subject to the property and occupant qualifying for this funding.

The first step would be to carry out a technical survey and if your home is suitable then the works are then booked in for install at a mutually convenient time. Upon completion of cavity wall insulation, you will receive a 25-year CIGA Guarantee.

If you think you may require insulation to your home or require more information on the funding they can offer, please contact Heat Insulation Ltd to book your free survey on 01482 588591. You can also apply online at www.heat-insulation.co.uk, quoting "ERYCInsulation".

A resident from Willerby, who has successfully applied for the scheme, said: "We are very pleased with the scheme. We have found the house retains heat during the day and also at night the temperature does not go down much.

"We found Heat Insulation Ltd very helpful and the workers carried out their work in a professional manner."
