CENTRAL HEATING FUND

Warm Up North, a partnership between nine North East local authorities and British Gas, has been awarded government funding to install FREE central heating systems into qualifying properties in the North East of England.

You may qualify for free central heating if

  • You are a private homeowner, or rent your home from a private landlord
  • You live in one of the nine Warm Up North areas (including Northumberland)
  • Your home does not have, and never has had, a central heating system, or you have solid fuel central heating       which does not cover all the rooms in your house
  • Installing a new central heating system will improve the energy rating of your house.

If you think you may be eligible for help under this scheme contact Warm Up North to arrange for an energy assessor to come out and survey your home, check eligibility and work out the best type of heating system for your property. The surveyor will then discuss these options in detail with you and explain what system could be installed.
