Determining your eligibility for the Great British Insulation Scheme (GBIS) involves considering several key factors beyond simply owning a home. These factors aim to ensure that the scheme effectively targets those who will benefit most from improved energy efficiency and that available funding is used most effectively.

1. Property Type: While the insulation scheme generally applies to various property types, there might be specific eligibility criteria for certain types of homes (e.g., flats, mobile homes).
