Daejeon City Launches 'Online Application' for Installing Eco-Friendly Home Boilers

[Asia Economy (Daejeon) Reporter Jeong Il-woong] Daejeon City announced on the 22nd that applications for subsidies for the installation of eco-friendly (low-NOx) boilers for households can now be submitted online.

Until now, applicants had to visit their local district office in person to apply for the subsidy, but from now on, they can apply through the ‘Household Boiler Certification System’ using a computer or mobile phone.

In particular, with the introduction of the certification system, the required documents for the subsidy application, which previously included more than five types of documents, will be simplified to just one application consent form. Supporting documents such as photos can also be directly uploaded into the system, making the subsidy application process more convenient.

The city provides support of 100,000 KRW per unit for general households when installing a new boiler or replacing an old household boiler, and 600,000 KRW per unit for low-income households. Tenants who are low-income can also apply for the 600,000 KRW subsidy.

Separately, some boiler companies are running promotions for low-income households where they cover the full amount exceeding 600,000 KRW if the boiler replacement cost exceeds this amount. Therefore, it is advantageous for low-income households to consult with boiler companies in advance.

The application deadline is December 9 of this year. For more details on how to apply, please refer to the announcement posted on the city’s website or contact the city hall’s Fine Dust Response Division or the environmental department of the district office.
