Our Services

As a One Stop Shop, Electric Ireland Superhomes offers four tailored services to meet the unique needs of homeowners across Ireland. All our services are conducted by our in-house team of experienced retrofit advisors, experts, and engineers. With their expertise, we aim to make your home warmer, more comfortable, and energy-efficient, resulting in reduced carbon emissions. Our dedicated team also assists you in accessing the very best energy upgrade grants provided by SEAI (Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland). 

Whole House Retrofit

Our Whole House Retrofit  service is specifically designed for houses constructed before 2005. To improve your home’s Building Energy Rating (BER), we begin with a comprehensive home survey. This survey enables us to gather detailed information about your home and tailor a retrofit plan accordingly. We then provide you with a fully costed Energy Report outlining the best value-for-money energy upgrades for your entire home. The installation of an air source heat pump, which serves as a core element, may be complemented by improvements like wall & attic insulation, windows, airtightness, advanced ventilation and Solar PV.

Heat Pump Plus+

Our Heat Pump Plus service is specifically designed for houses constructed from 2005 – 2010. We have a team of heat pumps plus experts dedicated to providing this service. Our approach involves conducting a thorough assessment of your home to create a customised heat pump plus plan. The solution will typically involve the installation of a state-of-the-art heat pump heating system, combined with basic insulation measures and the ability to generate your own electricity through Solar PV. 

Consultancy

If your contractor or architect is a registered retrofit partner of Electric Ireland Superhomes, we may be able to offer a consultancy service that combines a home energy upgrade with significant home improvements, such as renovations, extensions, or attic conversions. Our Consultancy team (led by Cori Calvert and Anthony Farrell, photo on the left) of experienced retrofit advisors and engineers collaborates with our partner architects and contractors to seamlessly integrate the home energy upgrade while the renovation, extension, or attic conversion work is being carried out. This approach provides customers with the flexibility to work with multiple experts towards a common goal of creating a warmer and cosier home. 

Multiples

The dedicated Multiples team has been set up to fully support large-scale energy upgrade of the country’s existing housing stock by processing groups of dwellings at the same time.  

The Multiples team’s knowledge spans over 30 years’ experience within the industry. All the engineering team are fully qualified BER assessors and Retrofit Engineers, with knowledge and experience of retrofitting various types of houses/dwellings. 

The team provides retrofit services for Local Authorities (LAs), Approved Housing Bodies (AHBs) and Non-Corporate Landlords. 

By aggregating the retrofitting of multiple dwellings into a single project, economies of scale can be achieved, both in terms of the professional services (surveying, design etc.) and in terms of the retrofit installation works, to provide cost and time savings for the Client.

Our service includes everything from the initial survey, pre and post-BER, assessment of works required, heating design, completion of tender packages, pricing documents along with post-works inspections, PSDP services to quality assurance. We can also assist the Local Authority with DHLGH grant claims. 

Our services can be provided in return for agreed fees and /or through support available through the Energy Efficiency Obligation Scheme (EEOS).

This would include providing an approved contractor, initial survey, assessment of works required, heating design, completion of tender package, pricing documents along with post works inspections, PSDP services to quality assurance.
