What is a heat pump?
A heat pump is a heating system that extracts ambient heat from outdoor air, the ground, or exhaust air and moves it indoors to heat water and living spaces. It replaces an oil or gas boiler as the main heat source. Instead of burning fuel, it uses electricity to move heat that already exists outside, typically delivering three to four units of heat for every unit of electricity it consumes.

Why homeowners in Cootehill are switching
- Lower running costs
A heat pump typically produces three to four units of heat per unit of electricity used, cutting heating costs against an oil or gas boiler running at full price. - SEAI grant funding
Up to €12,500 available toward the unit, any required central heating upgrades, and switching off fossil fuel heating. - A higher BER rating
Replacing an oil or gas boiler with a heat pump raises a home's Building Energy Rating, a factor in resale value and in the BER B2 deadline that applies to rental properties. - No fuel deliveries or storage
No oil tank, no gas connection, and no deliveries to schedule. A heat pump runs on the electricity supply already connected to the home. - One system for heating and hot water
Air-to-water and ground source systems supply both the central heating and the domestic hot water cylinder from a single unit. - No on-site emissions
A heat pump burns no fuel on site. An oil or gas boiler does.

Common questions in Cootehill
How much of my heat pump does the SEAI grant cover?
Up to €12,500 for air-to-water and ground source systems, or €7,500 for air-to-air, depending on dwelling type and system. We confirm the exact figure before any work starts.
What does the installation include?
The heat pump unit, connection to the existing or upgraded heating system, commissioning, and the post-works BER assessment. Any required radiator or underfloor heating upgrades are quoted separately and may be covered by the Central Heating Grant.
Is my home eligible?
A few criteria need to be met, mainly around the property's age and BER, but get in touch and we'll help assess your eligibility before you commit to anything. In general, the property must have been built and occupied before 2021, and homes built before 2007 need a Technical Assessment or an existing BER with a Heat Loss Indicator of 2.3 or below.
What isn't covered by the grant?
Structural changes, extensions, and heating upgrades beyond the €2,000 Central Heating Grant cap are not covered. A replacement of a heat pump that was already grant-aided is capped at €6,500, with no renewable heat bonus.
How long does installation take?
Most residential installations in Co. Cavan take two to four days, including commissioning and the post-works BER assessment.
Do I need to apply for the grant myself?
No. Your installer prepares and submits the SEAI application on your behalf as part of the quote process.
