€5,600 to retrofit windows and doors

Just to clarify if I was to avail of the windows upgrade grant do I have to also get a heat pump installed? I badly need new windows, I got a new composite door 2 years ago. Won't be getting a heat pump, I live alone, very low income, and wouldn't have the money for a deep retrofit or the works that go with it.

why not go to the seai site where ALL the answers are given - on boards, as per a previous post in this thread, you get pope without a clue giving very wrong information, so best to go to the very easy to locate official source where you can find the exact information you need

I am just in the process of getting mine ordered, I will talk to the rep from Munster I presume they will become a registered supplier and I can maybe get them order to have them moving and by the time 6-8 weeks comes around I can get a receipt for the full payment prior to fitting that may work I hope. Otherwise I just will have to delay a month

I was wondering that aswell and its not answered on the SEAI site. I don't intend getting a heat pump just new windows and I wonder does the grant apply in this scenario?

I take it there will be a bit of time before window and doors companies become registered contractors for the standalone grant. Previously it would be done indirectly with a one stop shop crowd ordering from a window company.

The front door grant is 800 but need post ber certificate which will cost another 250/300 (minus 50 seai ber grant). So really front door grant is nearer 550. That's my reading of it anyway so might be easier to get discount off door price with supplier if you're already ordered instead of grant and waiting another 2/3 months

no

sorry I should say I think it's similar though , at the time I was putting in one off measures. to get solar I had to do similar to heat pump assessment so would have had to block windows , wall insulation etc to get a grant for solar. also would have to get full technical assessment for best part of a grand with a grant towards that but only if I got all the suggested work done . It was that way for year or so and then rolled back

What are people paying for install of new double galzed windows for a standard 4 bed semi these days excluding the grant. I.e 4 windows at front and 4 at back and 2 at sides. Roughly / ballpark - thanks.

Waiting for a quote at the moment, will a couple of weeks at least but will pm when I get it.

What was the quote on your windows and doors any harm to ask?

Based on the above, I probably wouldnt qualify if I just wanted to get one door and maybe the front windows done? As the HLI would still be too high I presume?

Annoying as I have a tonne of insulation (previous owner) in the attic and I know the previous owner also internally dry line insulated (I have a photo of the thickness of it from when we were renovating and had to add a new socket - but I believe this wouldnt count, nor the insulated attic, if we got a new BER report as the assessor doesnt have evidence of it being installed).

Anyone know any dfferently from what I have above?

Thinking of upgrading our front and back door front 5 foot, back 6 foot french doors any one no roughly a cost to replace and fit and waiting times for grant approval I take it that there is a grant of 800 a door but probably have to jump through a few hoops for it thanks
