Ms Laura Burke:
It is, of course, expensive with regard to households but not in the broad scheme of the cost of a house in that the sump could be installed in the early stage of construction. In terms of retrofitting, the concern is that it will cost tens of thousands of euros, but it does not. It costs just over €1,000 in most instances. I accept that is a lot of money but it is doable for a good result.
