Struggling to find anything we qualify for.There are schemes running at the moment where they will change the boiler for free. Little bit of google should help.

No gas.Do you have gas on site?
And do you have double glazing, loft insulation, does the property have cavities etc?
Oh and what EPC rating below E does it have?
Happy to pay for it. Sooner its paid for the sooner we can let it. Plus I think its more desirable in the summer when the sun is hopefully shining. It sells the lifestyle better.Oh, and while I am at it - are you not able to apply for the exeption notice to allow you to save for the funds required - as your property may require changes outside of the funded change schemes?
Have had several offers from people saying they would happily rent it as is.....they are not the ones who get fined for non compliance though.....i looked at this for our rental.....a new boiler pretty much improves the epc enough ...i think
combi boilers i thought were for smaller properties.....when we change it'll be conventional
the whole system is crap.....my tenant is happy on a slightly lower than market rent....it'll have to go up to help fund the boiler and i'm fearful she won't be able to afford it
Be interested if anyone can confirm this as I have been told similar by a builder...Am I correct in SAYING that as of 2020 there will be NO new boilers made that run of Oil or LPG?

No gas.
No double glazing but would be costing over £10k for double glazing and as far as I can tell on its own would not get us enough points.
Will add additional loft insulation whilst property is being worked on.
Yes we have cavities and have had a quote to do them but I hear lots of stories of it causing problems and the fact that the guy who quoted said he makes far more money removing it or fixing the problems it can cause put me off even more.View attachment 681788View attachment 681790
Wooden, single glazed, sash windows. Hate them, rattling, draughty, always need painting. Will replace one day when we can afford it or if any family moved back in.What sort of windows do you currently have - are they wooden, as you can get thinner units to suit wooden rebates, which comply with regs, and you only change the panes?

Do you have a link out if interest as parents live in a listed building with the windows literally rotten and falling out
have been given the option of a Grant Vortex Eco Utility 15-21 Efficiency 92.7, nox rating class 2
or for an additional £750 Grant VortexBlue Internal 21 (15-21kW) Efficiency 90.81, nox rating class 3
Is the blue flame technology worth having now as regulations are likely to get tighter over the next few years?
From what i can tell both boilers are A rated
Thanks
