Worth the effort
Annet and her family have been living comfortably in their home for a long time. When they bought the house, it was still in its original state. In the meantime, Annet has completely renovated and insulated the house. They tackled the house from attic to basement. The windows and roof were done a long time ago, but the floor only recently: “We had the floor insulated just recently. The costs never really justified the benefits for us. With the Insulation Subsidy Achterhoek, it was definitely worth it for us.”
Thanks to this subsidy, Annet and her husband received €2,000 in subsidy for insulating the floor. A nice amount that covered a large part of the costs. “We’re glad we were able to do it now with the Insulation Subsidy Achterhoek. The conditions and procedure of the Energy Desk Achterhoek are very simple and accessible.”
Extra subsidy for low incomes
Homeowners with a lower income can take advantage of a new subsidy. Do you own a home and have an income of up to €46,500 per year? Then you can receive up to €10,000 in subsidy for insulation measures. Think, for example, of cavity wall insulation, floor insulation, roof insulation, or improved glazing.
