An 'eco-friendly boiler' is an excellent eco-friendly boiler that uses highly energy-efficient eco-friendly LNG (liquefied natural gas), reducing heating costs and emitting about 83% less nitrogen oxides, which are air pollutants, compared to conventional boilers.


Accordingly, Dong-gu plans to provide support of 600,000 KRW per household within the budget limit to low-income families and multi-child households (below 70% of median income) who wish to install or replace eco-friendly boilers.


The application period is from the 26th of this month until the budget is exhausted. Applicants can submit the application form and required documents by visiting the Climate Environment Division or by mail.



A Dong-gu official stated, "We expect that supporting the installation and replacement of eco-friendly boilers will be an effective alternative for neighbors in need who are struggling with high prices and high interest rates," adding, "We will continue to promote various eco-friendly policies that reduce residents' economic burdens and respond to the climate crisis."
