Should anything be done before the installation?
Insulation comes first on any home energy upgrade. A well-sealed house needs a smaller system and runs at a lower cost, and attic and wall insulation carry SEAI grants of their own. Ask about the fabric of the house when you speak to Joe Connolly Electrical.

Does my home in Galway qualify for a grant?
A home built and occupied before 2021 usually qualifies. Housing across Galway varies a lot, so the survey decides rather than the county. A registered installer confirms eligibility during a free survey before anything is committed.
