Home Energy Advice in Naas
Independent advice on your BER, which upgrades to do first, and which SEAI grants your home can use. Covering Naas town centre, Sallins, Punchestown and the surrounding area.
Home Energy Advice for Naas homes
Many Naas owners are weighing up a heat pump. Our advice checks whether the 1990s or 2000s house is ready, identifies the attic, cavity and airtightness work needed first, and explains the SEAI grants for both the fabric and the heat pump. Town-centre homes get a plan suited to solid walls.
How homes in Naas lose heat
The 1990s and 2000s estates were built under older building regulations with partial-fill cavities and modest attic insulation. They usually rate C, and the gains come from attic top-ups, checking cavity fill and sealing airtightness gaps. Town-centre homes have solid walls and need a different approach.
Typical housing: Town-centre period terraces and pre-war housing, with 1990s and 2000s estate housing across the wider catchment.
How home energy advice works
Most homeowners know their house could be warmer and cheaper to run, but not which upgrade to do first or how the grants fit together. Our energy advice visit starts with the house itself: construction type, existing insulation, windows, heating system, ventilation and your current BER if you have one.

Is there a grant for home energy advice in Naas?
SEAI grants a €350 home energy assessment when you upgrade through a One Stop Shop. Individual grants for insulation, heating controls and heat pumps are applied for directly with SEAI. Grant amounts are set nationally by SEAI and change from time to time, so check seai.ie before applying. We confirm what your home is likely to qualify for during the survey.
What is a BER and do I need one?
A Building Energy Rating rates a home from A1 (most efficient) to G. It is required when a home is sold or rented, and a post-works BER is needed for many SEAI grants. Our advice explains what is holding your rating back and what would move it.
Which upgrade should I do first?
Usually the fabric: attic insulation, draught-proofing and wall insulation, because they reduce how much heat the house needs. Heating upgrades such as heat pumps come after, sized to the improved house. The right order depends on your construction, which is what the visit is for.
Should I apply for individual grants or use a One Stop Shop?
Individual grants suit one or two measures you manage yourself. A One Stop Shop manages a multi-measure upgrade, handles the grant, and can unlock extra measures such as floor insulation and airtightness. We explain which route fits your plans.
