Prize Information
We will give the lucky winner an energy retrofit to their home to bring it up to an “A” standard BER rating with a value of up to €100,000 or alternatively a €50,000 cash prize. Tickets are capped at €25 or 5 for €100 to make it affordable for everyone. Homeowners, renters, local authority tenants are all eligible for this retrofit
The retrofit will be completed by a SEAI registered Contractor Munster Construction. The winner will have a comprehensive home survey carried out and a retrofit plan will be tailored to bring their home to an “A” standard BER rating. The contractor will be ready to begin as soon as the lucky winner is happy to proceed. The following are some of the elements which may be required to get your home to an “A” standard BER rating:
- New windows and doors
- Cavity Wall Insulation
- External Wall Insulation / Internal Drylining
- Air Tightness measures
- Air To Water Heat pump and all associated heating controls
- Demand Control Ventilation system
- Photovoltaic Panels on Roof.
The winner will end up with a warm, cozy & healthy home, reduction on their energy bills, increase the value of their house and play their part for the environment by reducing their carbon footprint.
Each of these retrofit processes and improvements plays a crucial role in upgrading existing homes to be more energy-efficient, comfortable, and environmentally friendly. The choice of which retrofit measures to implement depends on the specific needs and characteristics of the building and the homeowner’s goals.

Enhancing your energy efficiency and minimizing heat loss in your home can be achieved effectively by insulating your attic. According to SEAI, as much as 30% of heat loss occurs through the attic. Maximizing the potential of this space is crucial. Currently, 300mm Rockwool represents the industry standard for attic insulation, and our skilled engineers can promptly install it in your home.
If you own an older home, you are likely experiencing significant heat loss through your external walls. Given the rapid advancements in insulation techniques in recent years, most homes in Ireland stand to gain from enhanced wall insulation. According to SEAI, as much as 30% of your heat may escape through your walls. Enhancing this aspect will lead to decreased energy expenses and a reduction in your greenhouse gas emissions. The following
Cavity Insulation:
Cavity wall insulation is the process of filling the gap or cavity between the inner and outer layers of a wall with insulating materials. This helps prevent heat loss and can lead to improved energy efficiency in a building.
Internal Insulation:
Internal insulation involves adding insulation materials to the interior walls of a building. This method is often used when external insulation is not feasible or when preserving the building’s external appearance is important. It helps reduce heat loss, improve comfort, and enhance energy efficiency within the living space.
External Insulation:
External insulation, also known as external wall insulation (EWI), entails adding insulation layers to the exterior of a building. This process helps reduce heat loss through walls, minimizes thermal bridging, and enhances the overall energy performance of a property while also improving its appearance.
Upgrading windows and doors to energy-efficient models is an essential aspect of retrofitting. Energy-efficient windows and doors are designed to minimize heat loss, improve insulation, and reduce drafts, contributing to a more comfortable and energy-efficient home.
Airtightness measures the extent to which a building prevents unwanted air leakage. Proper airtightness helps maintain a comfortable indoor environment, minimize heat loss, and enhance energy efficiency.
Demand-controlled ventilation systems adjust the amount of fresh air introduced into a building based on occupancy and air quality. These systems optimize ventilation while minimizing energy consumption, making them an energy-efficient choice for maintaining good indoor air quality.
An air-to-water heat pump is an energy-efficient heating system that extracts heat from the outside air and transfers it to a water-based heating system. It is a renewable energy technology that can significantly reduce heating costs and lower carbon emissions. This coupled with a new hot water cylinder and energy efficient controls ensures a warm and cosy home.
