The Warmer Homes Scheme delivers a range of energy efficiency measures free of charge to households at risk of energy poverty.

There are a number of home energy improvements offered as part of the scheme. The upgrades that will be recommended for a property will depend on many factors, including age, size, type and condition of the property. For each eligible home, SEAI’s technical surveyor will determine which upgrades can be installed and funded.

Individual applications to SEAI Schemes are an operational matter for SEAI and as the Minister I have no role in such matters.

However, with regard to the specific individual case you have raised, following a request from my officials to SEAI regarding the particulars of the case, SEAI has advised a package of works was provided in line with the published Scheme Terms & Conditions.

Should the homeowner have any further queries in relation to their application, SEAI can be contacted directly at email warmerhomes@seai.ie or by phone at 01-8082004.
