GAIN:
"Delivering warmth
to those who need it
most"
The Grant Aided Heating Installers' Network aims for a higher level
of professionalism, beyond technical qualifications and competence, for
its heating and renewables contractors serving the grant market.
Members agree to abide by a
Code of Conduct covering fair dealing with customers, avoiding
misleading statements, maintaining technical registration, and a
complaints procedure. Criteria for full membership covers technical
registration, insurance cover, trading record and customer protection.
Full Members also need to hold a recognised quality
Certificate.
The Grant Aided Heating Installers' Network supports heating
and renewables contractors participating in grant-aided and incentive schemes. This includes the UK
government grant schemes: Warm Front in England, NEST Wales, Warm Deal
Scotland and Warm Homes in Northern Ireland. It also covers the Carbon
Emissions Reduction Target (CERT), Community Energy Savings Programme (CESP), as managed by energy suppliers;
the forthcoming government Green Deal; and
Schemes run by local authorities.
Members meet quarterly at
different locations to discuss matters of
mutual interest, whether they are operational, technical or policy
issues, taking these up as required with scheme managers or government.
As and when appropriate a GAIN technical committee is welcome to meet EAGA
Ltd t/a Carillion Energy Services.
Information on the Association's objectives, and members servicing
schemes follows.
