There are different criteria regarding boiler finance. For starters, the right applicant must be the owner of the property (tenants can apply too with their landlord’s permission) and they have to receive certain benefits from the government. Also, the existing boiler must be a minimum of 8 years old in order to get some form of boiler finance. Usually, homeowners get only a portion of the money and they have to pay out the rest. Although it doesn’t solve their problem entirely, it can significantly lower one’s expenses on new boilers.
