15 December 2009
As part of its climate change strategy, the government has introduced the Landlord's Energy Saving Allowance (LESA) to improve the energy efficiency of residential let property. Landlords can claim a £1,500 allowance per dwelling towards the cost of buying and installing any of the following: loft insulation, cavity or solid wall insulation, draught proofing, hot water insulation or floor insulation; before 6 April 2015.
