Am I Eligible?

To qualify for the SEAI window and door grant, your home must meet the following requirements.

Home Built & Occupied Before 2011

Your home must have been built and occupied prior to 2011 to be eligible for the windows and doors grant.

Replacing Single or Double Glazed Windows

You must be upgrading existing single or double glazed windows to high-performing windows with a U-value of 1.4 W/m²K or better.

Adequate Attic & Wall Insulation

Your home must achieve a Heat Loss Indicator (HLI) value of 2.3 W/K·m² or better on your BER, which requires adequate attic and wall insulation.

Adequate Ventilation

All rooms with replacement windows must have adequate ventilation. This is a key requirement for grant approval.

SEAI Registered Contractor

Works must be completed by an SEAI registered contractor. Dunne Eco is fully registered on the SEAI Contractor Register.

How Do I Know If My Insulation Is Adequate?

Check your existing BER certificate on the national register using your MPRN (Meter Point Reference Number). Look for a "Good" or "Very Good" rating on your Heat Loss Indicator.

If you've previously received SEAI grants for attic and wall insulation, you're likely already set. If not, a pre-works BER assessment is the easiest way to find out. Your BER assessor will advise if additional insulation is needed.

Don't worry - SEAI grants are also available for attic and wall insulation if you need them before applying for the windows and doors grant.

Door-Specific Requirements

A maximum of 2 external doors are eligible for grant support. Doors must achieve a U-value of 1.4 W/m²K or better. Patio doors are treated as external doors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions about the SEAI grant? Here are the answers to the most common ones.

The grant amount depends on your dwelling type: detached houses can receive up to €4,000, semi-detached/end terrace up to €3,000, mid-terrace up to €1,800, and apartments/duplexes up to €1,500. You can only apply for the windows grant once.

Yes, you can apply for the window grant and door grant at separate times. However, you can only apply for each grant once - so you cannot apply for the window grant twice or the door grant twice.

The Heat Loss Indicator (HLI) measures how well your home retains heat. To qualify for the windows and doors grant, your home must achieve an HLI value of 2.3 W/K·m² or better. This means your attic and wall insulation must be in good condition. If your HLI doesn't meet this threshold, you won't qualify for the grant until the insulation is improved.

You can look up your existing BER on the national BER register using your MPRN (Meter Point Reference Number). Your BER Advisory Report will show your Heat Loss Indicator rating. If you don't have an advisory report, we recommend getting a pre-works BER assessment - your BER assessor will tell you if any additional insulation is needed before you can claim the windows grant.

Not necessarily. If your home already has adequate attic and wall insulation (shown as "Good" or "Very Good" on your BER), you're ready to apply. If you've previously had SEAI grants for attic and wall insulation, you're most likely set. If your insulation isn't sufficient, separate SEAI grants are available to help cover the cost of upgrading it before you apply for the window and door grant.

No. You must wait until you receive your formal Letter of Grant Offer from SEAI before any installation works begin or materials are purchased. Starting early could make you ineligible for the grant. You have 8 months from grant approval to complete the works and claim the grant.

The grant is open to homeowners, landlords, companies, registered charities, Approved Housing Bodies, and Owner Management Companies. It is not means tested. Your home must have been built and occupied before 2011, and you must use an SEAI registered contractor such as Dunne Eco.

By default, the grant is paid directly to the homeowner. However, you can choose to nominate the contractor's bank account when completing your Request for Payment form, if you've agreed a "net of grant" payment arrangement with your contractor.

Yes. A post-works BER assessment is required after your new windows or doors are installed. This must be carried out after you receive your Letter of Grant Offer, not before. Many homeowners choose a combined pre- and post-works BER service to keep things simple.

Adequate ventilation is required in every room where windows are replaced. This is one of the most common reasons for grant issues, so it's taken very seriously. Dunne Eco will assess your ventilation during the survey and advise you if any additional ventilation is needed to meet the requirements.
