Under the recently announced Energy Efficient Homes stimulus package, the Federal Government will install roof insulation in up to 2.2 million Australian homes. For a period of two and a half years (to December 2011), owner-occupiers without ceiling insulation will be eligible for the insulation rebate - free product and installation, capped at $1,200.
Your insulation must be installed by a registered business to get the rebate. Hire a Hubby has a dedicated team of skilled installers who can professionally install insulation in a matter of hours. No mess, no fuss.
To be eligible to obtain the rebate you must be:
- the Owner-Occupier or Beneficial Owner of the dwelling where the Ceiling Insulation is to be installed and be an individual who is an Australian citizen or permanent resident aged 18 or over;
- the Landlord of the dwelling where the Ceiling Insulation is to be installed and be:
- an Australian citizen or permanent resident aged 18 years or over; or
- a corporate entity incorporated in Australia; or
- the Tenant of a dwelling owned by a Landlord who has evidence of the Landlord's permission (letter from the Landlord or Landlord's agent) to install Ceiling Insulation in that dwelling under the Home Insulation Program and to sign the Work Order Form including giving a release on the Landlord's behalf;
and must:
- obtain the approval of the owners' corporation, if applicable; and
- not have been granted assistance under the Australian Government's Solar Hot Water Rebate program since the rebate was introduced on 3 February 2009 for that dwelling; and
- not have applied for or been granted assistance under the Homeowner Insulation Program or the Low Emission Assistance Plan for Renters in relation to the dwelling (a dwelling can only be insulated once under the Program including the Homeowner Insulation Program and the Low Emission Assistance Plan for Renters); and
- correctly complete and sign the relevant section of the Work Order Form (see 'Definitions'); and
- be arranging the installation of new Ceiling Insulation, not replacing existing Ceiling Insulation above what is deemed as having Negligible Effectiveness (see 'Definitions'); and
- not have received or be entitled to receive assistance for the installation of Ceiling Insulation in the dwelling under any state, territory or local government scheme which combined with any assistance under this Program will result in the Householder receiving assistance in excess of the total cost of the installation of the Ceiling Insulation.
