Home Energy Assessment

How SEAI Grant Eligibility Works After Your Home Energy Assessment

Once your Home Energy Assessment is complete, it is natural to start thinking about what support may be available if you decide to improve your home’s energy efficiency. You may want clarity before making any decisions. You may want to understand how SEAI grants work, what you could be eligible for, and whether upgrading is the right step for your home. A Home Energy Assessment is designed to give you clarity first without pressure or obligation.

What your Home Energy Assessment confirms

Your Home Energy Assessment looks at how your home currently performs and what improvements could realistically make a difference.

It confirms:

Your current BER rating
How and where heat is being lost
Which upgrades could improve comfort and energy efficiency
Whether your home may be suitable for different SEAI upgrade routes

This assessment is the starting point for all SEAI grant pathways. It does not commit you to any work.

Understanding SEAI grant pathways after your assessment

After your Home Energy Assessment, there are two possible routes. Which one applies depends on your home and your goals.

Home Energy Upgrade through the One Stop Shop

The Home Energy Upgrade route is suitable if you want to improve multiple areas of your home together through one coordinated plan.

This route:

Is delivered through an SEAI registered One Stop Shop
Aims to improve your home to a B2 BER rating or better
Uses your Home Energy Assessment to confirm suitability
Allows multiple grants to be applied within one managed project

Eligibility is based on factors such as:

The age of your home
Your current BER rating
Whether the recommended upgrades can deliver a meaningful improvement

If your home is suitable, your Home Energy Assessment provides the information needed to move forward only if you choose to do so.

Individual Energy Upgrades using single measure grants

You may prefer to improve your home gradually rather than completing a full upgrade at once.

Individual Energy Upgrades allow you to:

Complete one upgrade at a time such as insulation or solar
Access SEAI grants for each approved measure
Use your Home Energy Assessment as guidance rather than obligation

This route suits you if you want flexibility time to plan or a more phased approach.

Taking the next step when you are ready

If you want to understand how SEAI grants may apply to your home and what options genuinely suit it, a Home Energy Assessment is the right place to start.

It gives you clarity before commitment, confidence before change, and the freedom to decide what happens next in your own time.

John and Brenda wanted a warmer, more efficient home as they looked ahead to retirement.

“For me it was more about the cost… Brenda was more about the heat. We brought both of our reasons together and found Churchfield. Churchfield were so helpful in every area.” — John Brady
