Are you eligible for this $ saving subsidy?  Lets find out!

The Warmer Kiwi Homes Grant provides between 50%-90% OFF insulation for eligible homeowners.

You and your family deserve a warm, dry home. Warmer Kiwi Homes covers between 50% to 90% of the costs to purchase and install insulation and up to 90% off an efficient heater, to help you save money on your power bills while you enjoy a warmer, healthier home.

In August 2025, the government expanded the eligibility criteria for insulation grants, meaning they’re available to more homes, and you may be eligible for up to 50-90% off the cost, so if you have checked before and were not eligible, you may be now, so let’s check again.

Also covered under the new funding

Funding for access work

Funding is available for situations that would normally prevent the installation of insulation in a ceiling or underfloor space: 

  • Creating access to inaccessible ceiling and underfloor areas.  
  • Repairing minor leaks in a roof space or underfloor area. 
  • If necessary, funding is available for heat pump Service Providers to carry out minor repairs on the home’s earthing system so a heater can be safely installed.
LED downlights

Funding is also available for the replacement of older-style downlights that cannot be covered by insulation with newer, safer, and more energy efficient LED downlights. Get in touch with us for more details. Funding for minor repairs and downlights only available if the home is assessed as needing insulation or a heat pump installation in case of an earthing issue.

Great service from start to finish. The team was professional, friendly, and easy to deal with. The insulation was installed to a high standard, and everything was left clean and tidy afterwards. Very happy with the result and would happily recommend them to others.

We had Insulation Tech install insulation in our home. Chris and Clinton had the job completed in two hours while Sandra, back at the office, promptly provided a quote, responded to our various questions and organised the job. We are very happy with the service and results overall.

I connected with insulation tech through one of their social media advertisements. They were very quickly in contact and Lisa was on site within a couple of days. We accepted their quote and Lisa was back again seven days later to install the moisture barrier. Lisa was a delight to deal with and she alone installed the moisture barrier. She was fast and efficient and did an amazing job. Super impressed with the service and the product delivered. Would highly recommend this company.

Good advice about bringing insulation up to code and our access to the EECA subsidy, along with a prompt and clear quote. The installation was completed very promptly, with install techs removing all rubbish and cleaning up after themselves. Much appreciated. Communications could be improved by following their own protocols, but overall very happy with the service and would recommend.

Thank you to Chris and his team for great service in getting our ceiling insulation topped up. From the initial point of contact Chris scheduled us a next day appointment, assisted us with subsidy arrangements based on our eligibility and provided an easy to accept quote. We were lucky to receive new lighting, as our old ones weren’t fit for purpose and had our insulation installed within a month, just in time for winter! Installation was a breeze, the team were efficient and easy to talk with. We can already feel the benefits in our much warmer home. Thanks Chris, highly recommend! - Dayna & Cathryn

I have been working with Insulation Tech for a couple of years now, and they have been amazing to deal with throughout. They’re a family-owned company with a genuine passion for what they do, and it really shows in the quality of their work and service. They have never let me down, consistently providing reliable service and excellent workmanship. As an added bonus, their Healthy Homes assessments are clear, easy to read, and straightforward for both owners and tenants to understand. I would 100% recommend Insulation Tech to anyone looking for a professional and trustworthy team.

Originally thought this was a scam - just seemed way to good to be true - but boy was I wrong! INSULATION TECH IS NOT A SCAM AND THEY ARE EXCEPTIONAL! I cannot recommend them enough. Phillip was absolutely lovely, highly professional and explained everything to me as he assessed our house and took our details. Turns out we qualified for 90% discount for a full ceiling and under floor insulation installation!!!! All this time we thought we had ceiling insulation but turns out it wasn't up to scratch! Not only was Phillip lovely but Sandra's online contact was superb! Super quick. Super friendly. Super efficient! Insulation tech nz your bloody legends I tell ya!! Such a lovely surprise, it has honestly made our year!

We recently had insulation installed in our home, and we couldn't be happier with the results. Chris and his team was professional and respectful of our space. Since the installation, we're already noticed a big difference in the comfort our home feels warmer, drier, and much more energy efficient. It is reassuring to know the job was done properly. A big thank you to Chris and his team for their excellent workmanship and friendly service. We highly recommend them to anyone considering improving their home insulation.

From the outset communication was fast and clear, Chris came to do the assessment and advised what was needed and we went from there. The ceiling and underfloor install was quick and efficient, we are now so toasty and notice a huge difference in being able to keep the house warmer and for a much longer time. Another bonus is that we will not be burning as much firewood this winter. Highly recommend Insulation Tech NZ.

Not sure if you qualify for a grant?…

We believe it’s still a good idea to contact us.  Grants are subject to a wider approval than just income – so it’s worth enquiring.

Finance through your bank

If you don’t qualify for the Warmer Kiwi Homes grant, finance for your home insulation may be available through your bank.  Check out ANZ and Westpac offerings, or if you are with another bank, please enquire with them directly, as most major banks offer a ‘home loan top-up’ for insulation.
