The Governments Boiler Scrappage Scheme – due to start early in 2010, will allow households in England to apply for a maximum grant of £400 to put towards the cost of replacing Boilers with an anticipated SEDBUK energy rating of G. The G rating implies that the boiler efficiency is below seventy percent (70%). The Chancellor Alistair Darling has budgeted a fund of up to £50 million to assist with the boiler replacements in 125,000 homes in England.
