Substantial Funding Pool for Home Insulation in West Maas en Waal
Good news for homeowners in West Maas en Waal want to insulate their homes. Starting today, a subsidy is available. With this subsidy program, West Maas en Waal is taking West Maas en Waal major step forward in promoting sustainable living. The subsidy is for residents whose homes have an energy label of D or lower. Does your home have an energy label of C or no valid energy label? In that case, residents are also eligible for the subsidy if they have two uninsulated or poorly insulated areas in their home.
Twice as nice
Alderman van den Boom-Witzel is very pleased with this subsidy program: “This way, you can get a significant portion of the costs reimbursed when you insulate your home, up to a maximum of €1,925. And that’s great, because these are substantial investments. Of course, you’ll also see the difference in your heating bills. So it’s a win-win.” Marieke van den Boom continues: “What I like is that this subsidy is also available to DIYers. They can even get a higher percentage of their expenses reimbursed. So, handy DIYers: apply for it!”
You'll never regret insulating
