Just heard the Minister on The News at One speaking about the new insulation grants. Does anyone have the details or know where we can find them?
Hi Billyjoja. He definitely mentioned windows also today as part of house insulation improvement.I'm looking to have double glazed windows installed. I didn't know this new scheme had started. Must check it out tomorrow.
Perfect Marion, thanks.Check out the details [broken link removed]
It only applies to pre-2006 built houses.

It says on the grant application form , that minimum grant amount for first application must be € 500 .
Does this mean that I can apply for the wall insulation = €400 and Roof insulation = € 250 and I am now over the 500 euro limit .
On the same topic of grants , I understand I can get a grant € 200 for a BER .
Can anyone tell me how much I could expect to pay for this assessment , for a typical 3 bedroom town house ?
€200 -€300 each visit. You would need a before and after visit to be eligible for the assessment grant. BER assessment is not mandatory to recieve the insulation or boiler, heating controls grants.
lex foutish said:Thanks Tester. I wonder could I source the insulation materials myself (eg. insulated plaster board, attic roof insulation etc.) and then get a registered plasterer/bulider etc to do the work under the scheme? I'm presuming that by sourcing it myself, I'd save a few bob overall.
