The SEAI grant funding available is significant when carrying out a whole house retrofit. Grants differ between projects and need to be calculated for each house individually – they range in scale between €12,000 to €35,000. For example, a semi-detached 1990s house requiring high performing windows, door, cavity wall and attic insulation, solar PV panels, as well a new heat pump and radiators, can avail of grants of over €20,000.

“At all times we had full choice; we could have chosen not to put solar on the roof. We could have chosen only to do the minimal work necessary to get the grades that we need to get the grants, but we were given all the options and we’ve never really felt that we could contribute a lot to making the world a better place having an efficient home and doing that little bit is really important to us.”
Electric Ireland Superhomes is a One Stop Shop which looks after all the key stages of a home energy retrofit, from retrofit design through to project completion and management of SEAI grant funding. We engage leading contractors and experienced retrofit specialists to offer you expert guidance through an often complex process. Our retrofit specialists aim to provide homeowners with peace of mind, quality assurance, and, when the retrofit is complete, the best home possible. We believe that the best way to achieve a comfortable, healthy and low-carbon home is through a whole house retrofit powered by a renewable energy heat pump. In a Superhome, insulation, air-tightness, advanced ventilation and a retrofit specialist designed heating system work perfectly together to deliver the best possible energy system for your home.
