Energywise Grants
 You could get ENERGYWISE™ funding to help with the cost to insulate your house. Get help to install clean and efficient heating with the government's Heat Smart programme.
This programme will allow 188,500 homes in New Zealand to become easier and cheaper to heat. The result? Warmer, healthier and drier homes. Our government has committed to spending $347 million over the next four years.
How do I know if I'm eligible?
Homeowners with houses built before 2000 are eligible.
How do I know what I can use the funding for?
Funding can be used to install the following:
- The following energy efficiency measures where necessary: a hot water cylinder wrap, pipe lagging, draught-stopping, and a ground moisture barrier.
- Ceiling and underfloor insulation, up to a required standard (please note, if you can access the space, you have to get both ceiling and underfloor insulation done to qualify for funding).
- A clean, efficient heating device in the primary living space, if it does not already have a heating device that meets current standards (please note - you are only eligible for funding towards a heater if you have proper insulation first - your service provider will be able to tell you if you qualify).
Free Assessment
Homeseal Insulation can do a free assessment on your home and we can arrange an energywise grant for you. From this assessment we can give you a free no obligation quote with the energywise grant deducted from the total cost of insulation.
