About Community Energy Action

A warm, dry home is a healthy home and good insulation and efficient heating are key to achieve that. Our aim is for every Cantabrian to have sufficient insulation and heating.  

Community Energy Action has insulated more than 17,000 homes since 1994 so when we install insulation in your home, you can be assured it wil be done right. Community Energy Action can take care of both your insulation and heating needs, providing a quality job and an excellent service at an affordable cost.

There is more to us though.

We also provide free assistance for all householders with questions about home energy issues through our award-winning Energy Advice Service.
