New grants are available to pay half the cost of ceiling and under-floor insulation.

The Energy Efficiency and Conservation Authority is offering the grants to homeowners with a Community Services Card and people with a health condition related to cold, damp housing whose incomes are just over the Community Services Card level.

Grants are also still available for landlords with low-income tenants.

The grants are available until the end of next June through the Warm Up NZ Healthy Homes programme. Info: www.energywise.govt.nz
