Free home energy saving offer for Whitton residents
Whitton Residents - a free Home Energy Saving offer for a limited period only.
Energy saving devices worth up to £99 installed in your home.
All Whitton residents are eligible to take advantage of the RE:NEW scheme that will improve the energy efficiency of their homes and save money on their energy bills.
Richmond Council working in partnership with Climate Energy are offering residents living in Whitton Ward a free opportunity to take part in a new energy saving scheme called RE:NEW, which will help you cut your energy bills and could help you make year on year savings of over £200.*
With energy bills rising it’s a good time to make sure your home is energy efficient. The RE:NEW team are visiting homes to show residents exactly where their property is losing energy and the simple changes they can make to save money.
A friendly Energy Expert from Climate Energy will spend about an hour in your home at your convenience to:
- Fit simple energy saving devices suitable for your home - see below.
- Give you practical advice on how you can save energy in your home.
- Check if your home needs improved insulation as we can help you with loft and cavity wall insulation. It might be free if you are over 70 or in receipt of benefits, or discounted from only £99.
- Assess your eligibility for grants and discounts for replacement heating systems and solar panels.
We have limited visits available in your local area, so please call now to book your visit to avoid disappointment.
Arrange your RE:NEW Energy Expert visit today. Call freephone 0800 652 7210 or visit www.climateenergy.org.uk/renew.
Our Energy Experts will also call at homes to make appointments. They will show you a valid ID badge and ask for your permission before entering your home. If you are unsure and need any clarification please call freephone 0800 652 7210.
