York residents are being urged to sign up for free home insulation before the offer expires in December.

The Wrapping up York scheme, which entitles all residents to free loft and cavity wall insulation, is tackling fuel poverty by keeping houses warmer and helping householders save up to £310* on their fuel bills. People on certain income-related benefits can also claim a £100 ‘cash back’ incentive for insulating.

“There’s no catch – it’s simply a case of calling Yorkshire Energy Partnership on 01904 55 44 06 to arrange a free survey. The scheme is open to all homeowners in the city – including landlords – but please do take advantage of the scheme whilst funding lasts.”

According to the Energy Saving Trust, a house can lose up to 60 per cent of its heating through its walls and roof – and insulation can help householders save up to £310* per year on their energy bills.

For more information or to claim your FREE insulation, call Yorkshire Energy Partnership on 01904 55 44 06 quoting ‘Wrapping up York’.

Yorkshire Energy Partnership can also help residents with advice about renewable energy – including sourcing accredited installers in the Yorkshire area. To find out how you can save, (and earn) money through using renewable energy, call them on 01904 55 44 06.
