Kiturami Supports Free Installation of Eco-Friendly Boilers for Low-Income and Vulnerable Groups

Adding Ggitturami's Own Subsidy to Ministry of Environment Grants for Free Installation

Kiturami announced on the 8th that it will support the "Eco-friendly Boiler Free Installation" program until the first half of this year to reduce the cost of boiler replacement and heating expenses for low-income and vulnerable groups.

The support targets are low-income and vulnerable households designated by the Ministry of Environment, such as basic livelihood security recipients and near-poverty groups. From this year, multi-child households with less than 70% of the median income and social welfare facilities are also eligible for support.

If eligible households replace their old home boilers with Kiturami eco-friendly boilers, they can have the boilers installed free of charge by combining the Ministry of Environment's installation subsidy of 600,000 KRW with Kiturami's own support funds.

According to research by the Ministry of Environment, replacing old boilers with eco-friendly boilers that have about 12% higher energy efficiency can reduce annual gas bills by up to 440,000 KRW per boiler. In addition, nitrogen oxide emissions are reduced by about 87% annually, carbon monoxide emissions by about 70.5% annually, and carbon dioxide emissions by about 19% annually.

A Kiturami Boiler official said, "We hope that low-income vulnerable groups, who are suffering from the double burden of high prices and rising energy costs, can alleviate their heating cost burden even a little by installing Kiturami eco-friendly boilers with high energy efficiency," and added, "We will continue to take the lead in supporting vulnerable groups through various energy sharing projects."
