Maximise Your Home Energy Savings

Upgrading your home to a modern, renewable heating system is a significant investment that pays dividends in comfort & reduced energy bills. To support this transition, the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) offers substantial financial grants to homeowners in Letterkenny & throughout County Donegal.

SEAI GRANTS

Available Grants for Your Heating Upgrade

The Individual Energy Upgrade Grant route allows you to choose specific energy improvements that suit your budget & your home’s requirements. We specialise in the following grant-aided services:

Air to Water Heat Pump Systems

Substantial grants are available to help replace old oil or gas boilers with high-efficiency heat pumps. This is the most effective way to future-proof your home & eliminate fossil fuel dependency.

Heating Controls Upgrade

If you are not yet ready for a full heat pump installation, you can secure funding to install modern, zoned heating controls. This allows you to heat specific areas of your home only when needed, significantly reducing wasted energy.

Technical Assessments

Before installing a heat pump, a technical assessment is required to ensure your home is “Heat Pump Ready” (meeting the required Heat Loss Indicator). We can guide you through this essential first step.

How the Grant Process Works

We aim to make the application process as straightforward as possible for our Donegal clients.

  1. Initial Consultation: We visit your property in Letterkenny or the surrounding areas to assess your current system & discuss your goals.
  2. Technical Assessment: For heat pump applications, an independent assessor determines if your home meets the required insulation standards.
  3. Grant Application: You apply for the grant online through the SEAI portal. You must have your grant approval in place before any works commence.
  4. Professional Installation: Our SEAI-registered team carries out the installation to the highest technical specifications.
  5. Grant Payment: Once the work is commissioned & the final paperwork is submitted, the SEAI pays the grant directly to you.
