Mick Williams at Williams & Co plumber’s merchants has started a petition to encourage the Government to adopt a boiler scrappage scheme along the lines of the Government’s recently announced car scrappage plan.
Mr Williams said: “The idea is to persuade the government to work with boiler manufacturers to create a scrappage scheme similar to the recently introduced car scrappage scheme, but this time for old central heating boilers.
“It is my belief that such a scheme would be even more successful than the car scheme in that it would help the government to achieve it's carbon reduction targets, it would help boiler manufacturers, distributors and installers by stimulating demand and it would help householders by saving them money on their gas bills.”
