Give yourself the gift of warmth this year!
Cosy Homes Trust and Otago Community Trust have joined forces to boost the Government’s subsidised insulation scheme to be FREE for many Otago residents!
If your home was built before 2000, and you have a Community Services Card or a Gold Card with a Community Services Card endorsement, you are eligible for FREE ceiling and underfloor insulation where accessible.
Own a rental property? If your main tenant has a CSC, and the house was built before 2000, Cosy Homes and Otago Community Trust will boost your subsidy to 75%. As the landlord, you pay 25%.
Subsidies are available for a limited time, and are first-in, first-served.
