Europe 1 takes stock.
If you have planned to replace your old oil-fired boiler with a more virtuous system, now is the right time.
From this Friday the aid granted to households is increased by 1,000 euros.
A measure adopted to respond to soaring energy prices.
This additional aid of 1,000 euros is granted as part of the Ma PrimeRenov' scheme: all you have to do is file a file on the maprimerenov.gouv.fr website.
The system is accessible to all owner-occupiers or lessors, and whose income is less than 80,000 euros per year.
And depending on your level of income, you can benefit from total aid of up to 11,000 euros to replace your oil-fired boiler with a wood-fired boiler or even a heat pump.

With the war in Ukraine, the demands are increasing
Since the start of the conflict in Ukraine, which has caused fuel prices to soar, requests to replace boilers have multiplied, notes Audrey Zermati of the energy works company Effy.
"We have a strong growth in requests, specifically for heat pumps which have increased by almost 70%, or wood boilers by 75%. Which makes a division of more than 50% of your bill", explains- she.
This additional aid of 1,000 euros will be granted to applications submitted from this Friday and until December 31.
