Please note that, with immediate effect, the LEAP Boiler Scheme has closed to new applications.
Any clients who have already been assessed during a LEAP home visit, and referred into the scheme, will still have the offer of funding honoured (subject to survey by a Gas Safe Registered heating engineer).
This closure is simply due to the number of clients being referred into the scheme, which has exhausted funding much earlier than usual.
Part of the reason for this is the fact that other funding sources, e.g. the Energy Company Obligation, have moved away from providing like-for-like replacements for broken, condensing boilers. This has led to an increasing demand for LEAP Boilers.
This boiler scheme is one potential solution available when vulnerable home-owners are referred to Energy Projects Plus in a no-heat situation, with a broken gas central heating boiler. We will continue to accept referrals for clients in this situation, but please help manage their expectations when referring them to us, as there may not be a quick and simple solution available this Winter.
