What has changed?
The Government has made some big changes to the Warmer Kiwi Homes subsidy program and you could benefit from these!
- New areas have been opened up to now be eligible for the subsidy. Thousands of homes that were never before eligible for a subsidy can now apply.
- The boundary lines for some areas have changed and thousands of homeowners are now entitled to an even bigger subsidy than they were before.
Who's eligible?
To qualify for an insulation subsidy
- Own and live in a home built before 2008.
- Have a Community Services Card, SuperGold Combo card, or live in an area identified as low- to middle-income (we can help check that for you)
- Your home doesn't already have ceiling and underfloor insulation. (If you had an insulation grant for a previous house, no worries, you can apply for a grant at your current home.)
To qualify for a heater subsidy:
- Own and live in a home built before 2008.
- Have a Community Services Card, SuperGold Combo card, or live in an area identified as low income (we can help check that for you)
- Have ceiling and underfloor insulation installed to standards. If your home has been insulated through a Government insulation programme, we'll confirm it when you apply for a heater grant. Otherwise we'll do a quick check, at no cost to you.
- If your house can't be insulated — for example if there's no space under the floor or ceiling — you may still be able to get a grant for a heater.
- Your home doesn't already have one of the following fixed heaters that is operational in any living area of the house: heat pump, wood or pellet burner, flued gas heater or central heating system. If your home has one of these heater types, it is not eligible for a heating grant.
