SEAI Grants for Attic Insulation

Everything you need to know about the Sustainable Energy Authority Ireland (SEAI) grants for attic insulation – from eligibility and grant amounts to the application process and expert installation.

What is the SEAI Insulation Grant?

The SEAI insulation grant is part of Ireland’s Better Energy Homes Scheme and offers set financial support for homeowners improving their attic or roof insulation. The grant amount depends on the type of home, whether it’s an apartment, mid-terrace, semi-detached, or detached house. It’s designed to help reduce heating costs, improve energy efficiency, and make homes more comfortable all year round.

Depending on the type of home you live in, you could receive between €800 and €1,500 in financial support toward your insulation upgrade. These grants are available for apartments, mid-terrace houses, semi-detached, and detached homes.
