How Eco Home Check Is Funded
Eco Home Check is free for homeowners. We earn money through affiliate commissions when users request quotes through our partner links. You never pay anything extra for using our service.
The Affiliate Model
When you use our eligibility checker or click through to request quotes from an installer, we may earn a commission from our partner. This commission is paid by the partner, not by you. The price you pay for any installation or service is exactly the same whether you come through Eco Home Check or go directly.
What You Should Know
- You pay nothing extra. Our service is completely free to use
- Commissions do not affect our recommendations or eligibility results
- Our eligibility checker uses verified government data, not partner preferences
- We clearly mark affiliate links and partner content throughout the site
- We do not accept payment to rank or recommend specific products or installers
Our Partner Types
We work with two main types of partners:
Installer Networks
Companies that match homeowners with MCS-certified installers for solar panels, heat pumps, and insulation. When you request quotes through our site, these networks connect you with vetted local installers.
Energy Comparison Partners
Services that help you compare and switch energy tariffs. If you switch your energy supplier through one of our partner links, we may earn a commission.
Why This Model Works
The affiliate model allows us to provide a completely free service to homeowners while maintaining independence. We don't run display advertising, we don't sell your data, and we don't charge for access to our tools or content.
Our revenue depends on providing accurate, helpful information that leads to genuine interest in energy improvements. If our recommendations aren't trustworthy, people don't use our service, and we don't earn. This alignment of incentives is by design.
