What does the Warmer Homes Scheme heating upgrade guide cover and who may qualify?

A GrantWise Team Answered by

The Warmer Homes Scheme can provide energy-efficiency improvements to eligible homeowners, with possible measures assessed according to the property’s condition and existing heating arrangements. Depending on the assessment, works may include insulation, draught-proofing or certain heating-related upgrades, but no particular measure or outcome is guaranteed. Eligibility usually depends on factors such as receiving a qualifying social welfare payment, owning the home and meeting SEAI’s property requirements. Check the latest criteria on the SEAI website, as approval and the recommended works are decided through the official assessment process.
