Comprehensive Home Energy Upgrades by Oriel View Construction
Home Insulation Upgrades
A well-insulated home retains heat more efficiently, reducing the need for excessive heating and lowering energy bills. We offer:
• Attic insulation – Prevents heat loss through the roof, one of the biggest sources of energy waste.
• Cavity wall insulation – Enhances heat retention by filling air gaps in walls with insulating material.
• External and internal wall insulation – A robust solution for older homes lacking cavity walls.
• Floor insulation – Keeps the home warmer and minimises heat loss through floors.
Heat Pump Installations
Switching from traditional heating systems to a heat pump dramatically improves energy efficiency. We install:
• Air-to-water heat pumps – Efficiently convert outdoor air into heating and hot water.
• Ground-source heat pumps – Utilise geothermal energy for sustainable home heating.
• Water-to-water heat pumps – Ideal for homes with water sources that can be used for energy extraction.
These modern heating solutions significantly reduce reliance on fossil fuels and lower heating expenses.
Solar Panel Installations
Investing in solar PV (photovoltaic) panels allows homeowners to generate their own electricity, reducing dependence on the national grid. Our services include:
• Solar panel assessment – Determining the best placement and number of panels for maximum efficiency.
• Full installation and setup – Ensuring seamless integration with existing electrical systems.
• Battery storage options – Allowing homeowners to store surplus solar energy for later use.
With SEAI grants available, solar energy has never been more accessible for Irish homeowners.
Window and Door Upgrades
Old, inefficient windows and doors cause significant heat loss. We provide:
• Triple-glazed and double-glazed windows – Enhancing insulation while reducing noise pollution.
• Energy-efficient doors – Minimising draughts and increasing home security.
These upgrades not only improve energy efficiency but also enhance property value and comfort.
Smart Heating Controls
Upgrading to a smart heating control system allows homeowners to monitor and adjust heating remotely, leading to:
• Reduced energy waste.
• Greater comfort and convenience.
• Lower heating costs.
We install advanced thermostats and heating control systems, helping you take full control of your home’s energy use.
