HOMES in parts of the area could soon benefit from free home insulation.
PECT Consultancy Limited, the consultancy arm of environmental charity Peterborough Environment City Trust, is working with Fenland District Council to offer residents in Chatteris, March, Whittlesey and Wisbech free and subsidised loft insulation.
This will help residents save money on household bills, as well as cutting carbon emissions from homes, helping to save the environment.
Project manager of the scheme Mark Randall said: “Insulating your home could significantly shrink your heating bills, as well as helping to protect the environment by reducing harmful carbon dioxide emissions released into the atmosphere.
“All local residents are eligible for subsidised loft insulation, and those on means-tested benefits may be entitled to a full grant, allowing them free insulation.”
The free loft insulation scheme is subject to qualifying criteria and is on a first come first served basis due to a limited fund.
The qualifying criteria for the free loft insulation scheme are:
n Properties must be owner occupied or privately rented.
n Households must be in receipt of a means-tested benefit such as working families tax credit or pensions credit.
Those who do not qualify for the 100 per cent grant could still qualify for assistance towards the cost of insulating their home. It could cost as little as £199 for cavity wall insulation or £249 for loft insulation for a three-bed semi-detached house.
n For more information, to find out whether you are eligible for a grant, and to register for a grant while funds last, call PECT’s Energy Services Team on 0800 7834761.

The answer to this dilemma is utilizing magnetic power or magnetic energy.
