Will a Home Energy Assessment Make My Home Warmer?
Many Irish homeowners feel frustrated when the heating is on but the house still feels cold. Certain rooms may never warm up and energy bills can rise without any real improvement in comfort. A Home Energy Assessment helps explain why this happens by looking at how your home actually performs.

In most cases, the problem is not simply the heating system. Heat can be lost through walls, roofs, floors, draughts or ventilation. A Home Energy Assessment looks at all of these factors together so you can understand what is preventing warmth from staying in your home.
The assessment typically includes:
- The age and construction type of the property
- Existing insulation in the attic, walls, and floors
- Heating systems and controls
- Ventilation and airflow
- Overall energy use and heat loss
Time is also taken to listen to your concerns, such as cold rooms, uneven heating, or high energy bills, so the assessment reflects how you live in your home.
How the assessment helps improve warmth
A Home Energy Assessment does
not create heat, but it shows how to keep heat where it belongs. By
identifying the real causes of heat loss, it helps homeowners focus on
changes most likely to improve warmth and comfort.
This
may include improving insulation so rooms stay warmer for longer,
adjusting heating controls for more even warmth or reducing draughts
while maintaining good air quality. The focus is always on realistic
improvements based on how the home actually behaves.
Knowing What to Do Next
A
Home Energy Assessment gives you clear, practical information so you can
decide what happens next, in your own time. There is no obligation to
proceed.
At Churchfield Home Services,
it is treated as a starting point rather than a sales step, giving
homeowners confidence that decisions about warmth and comfort are based
on understanding, not guesswork.
For many Irish homeowners, that clarity is the first step toward a home that feels warmer and more comfortable.
