Homeowner Insulation Program
If you are a homeowner-occupier and the criteria listed in the
Program Guidelines, the Homeowner Insulation Program will provide
assistance of up to $1,600 to have ceiling insulation installed.
How do I arrange installation?
Taking advantage of the assistance is straightforward and simple.
Simply read the program guidelines and assess your eligibility,
and select an installer that is on the Installer Provider Register
on the
website,
or by calling the Energy Efficient Homes Hotline on 1800 808 571.
Homeowners must use an installer on the Installer Provider
Register.
After installation, the installer will claim the payment direct
from the Government so householders will only need to meet any costs
above the amount of Government assistance they are entitled to.
Householders are encouraged to approach a number of installers on
the register to compare costs, and to explore different insulation
and installation options.
Can I access the program?
An applicant must:
- Be an owner-occupier
- Be aged 18 or over
- Be an Australian citizen or permanent resident
- Have no existing ceiling insulation or insulation with an R
value of 0.5 or below
Check the
installation guidelines for full eligibility
requirements.
