Council tax energy efficiency discount scheme

Insulate your home and get money off your Council tax

You could save around £145* a year on your heating bills just by insulating your loft and £110* with cavity wall insulation.

You can get a one-off discount of £50 on your Council tax if you install either cavity wall or loft insulation, or £75 if you install both, through our scheme.

If you insulate your home, you get lower energy bills and a cosier home.
