SEAI Heat Pump System Grant
Ireland's main home heat pump grant, run by SEAI. Since February 2026 it covers the heat pump, upgrades to radiators and pipework, and a renewable heat bonus.
How much you get
Maximum for a house (heat pump €6,500 + heating upgrades €2,000 + Renewable Heat Bonus €4,000). The real amount depends on the works done.
The calculation is indicative. The scheme manager decides.
