The Government is supporting increased levels in home insulation through our \u2018help to heat\u2019 schemes. Evidence of the health benefits of Government insulation schemes is gathered as part of those schemes\u2019 evaluations. Recent evaluations show that schemes had a positive impact on general health.<\/p>
<\/p>
For example, the evaluation of ECO Phase 3 showed 24% of households reported that the measures had a positive impact on the health of anyone within the household. This was higher among households that had someone living there who had a long-standing illness, disability or infirmity (31%) Details of the evaluation can be found here: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/653f8705d10f3500139a6b2f/eco-evaluation-phases-2t-3.pdf<\/a>.<\/p>"}
