Home Energy Upgrade Loan FAQ

The loan can be used for a heat pump installation alone, or combined with other SEAI-supported upgrades like insulation.

No, they are separate processes. The loan is arranged through your chosen lender, while the SEAI grant is applied for by your installer.

Standard lending criteria and affordability checks apply, the same as any personal loan application through the participating bank or credit union.
