Park Homes: Boilers
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what support exists for park home owners with faulty LPG boilers.
Answered by Martin McCluskey
The Government’s Warm Homes Plan (WHP) - which represents the biggest ever investment in home upgrades, is an offer for every household.
Park home residents can apply for support via a range of Government schemes including the Warm Homes: Local Grant, and ECO4 - which Government intends to extend until the end of the year, subject to Parliamentary approval. All eligible households in England and Wales can benefit from the expanded Boiler Upgrade Scheme, funded with £2.7 billion to 2030. BUS provides grants up to £7,500 to help households with the upfront costs of installing heat pumps and biomass boilers. In addition, the 0% VAT rate on heat pumps installations offers further financial support.
We are also working with the finance sector to make a range of low-cost finance solutions available to homeowners, with Government backing a total loan portfolio of £2 billion, including up to £1.7 billion from our new Warm Homes Fund.
Residents who are not directly supplied with electricity may also be eligible for support with their bills through the Park Homes Warm Home Discount scheme.
