Energy giant EDF has launched an exciting new initiative that could see customers receiving a free air fryer worth up to £100. The scheme aims to help households reduce their energy consumption while enjoying the benefits of this popular kitchen gadget.
Who Qualifies for EDF's Free Air Fryer?
The offer is specifically targeted at customers with older, less efficient electric storage heaters. EDF is identifying eligible households through their smart meter data and will directly contact those who qualify.
According to the energy provider, customers using outdated heating systems could see significant savings by switching to more efficient appliances like air fryers for their cooking needs.
The Energy-Saving Benefits
Air fryers have gained massive popularity not just for their cooking capabilities but for their energy efficiency. Research shows that air fryers typically use:
- Up to 70% less energy than conventional ovens
- Cook food significantly faster than traditional methods
- Reduce overall kitchen heat during summer months
An EDF spokesperson explained: "We're committed to helping customers save energy and money. By providing these appliances, we're giving households practical tools to reduce their consumption and bills."
How the Scheme Works
Unlike traditional promotions, customers don't need to apply for this offer. EDF is proactively reaching out to eligible customers based on their energy usage patterns and heating systems.
The company has confirmed that the air fryers being distributed are high-quality models from reputable brands, ensuring customers receive durable, effective appliances.
Broader Energy Efficiency Campaign
This initiative forms part of EDF's wider commitment to energy efficiency. The provider has previously run similar schemes offering free smart thermostats and energy-saving kits to help customers manage their consumption more effectively.
With energy prices remaining a concern for many households, such initiatives provide welcome relief and practical solutions for reducing monthly bills.
What to Do If You Think You're Eligible
While EDF is contacting customers directly, those who believe they might qualify but haven't heard anything are encouraged to check their email inboxes regularly and ensure their contact details are up to date with their energy provider.
This innovative approach to customer support demonstrates how energy companies are thinking creatively about helping households during the ongoing cost of living challenges.
