All 25 SEAI registered installers in Kilkenny listed here appear on the official SEAI contractor register, which is the one thing that decides whether you can claim your grant.
Kilkenny city and the surrounding rural county, much of it on oil heating, see steady demand for heat pump and solar installations. Installers on this page cover Kilkenny city, Callan, Thomastown and Castlecomer and the wider county. Bordering counties are served too, including Carlow, Waterford, Tipperary.
Choosing an installer on the SEAI register matters because only a registered contractor can process your grant, worth up to €12,500 on a heat pump (as of July 2026). Insulation comes first on any home energy upgrade, so a well-sealed house in Kilkenny gets the most from a heat pump and the lowest running costs.
Of the 25 contractors covering Kilkenny, 13 for solar panels, 11 for heat pumps, 3 for solar thermal and 1 for biomass boilers. 3 are registered for more than one measure, which matters if you are pairing a heat pump with solar panels, since a single contractor can then do both jobs and claim both grants rather than you coordinating two.

Widening the Search Beyond Kilkenny
Registration is national rather than county by county, so a contractor listed under a neighbouring county can quote for a home in Kilkenny and process the grant the same way. If Kilkenny is thin on a particular service, the county next door is the first place to look.
It is worth doing even when Kilkenny has plenty of choice. Two or three quotes on the same specification is the only reliable way to see what the work should cost, and lead times vary a lot between firms in Leinster depending on how booked up they are. Ask each one whether the price includes the grant paperwork and any radiator or cylinder work, since that is where quotes most often differ rather than on the heat pump itself.

SEAI Registered Installers in Kilkenny — Common Questions
How many SEAI registered installers are there in Kilkenny?
25 contractors on the SEAI registered installer list cover Kilkenny, 11 of them for heat pumps and 13 for solar panels. Every one is listed on this page with contact details, so you can approach them directly.
Do I need an SEAI registered installer to get a grant in Kilkenny?
Yes. Every one of the 25 contractors on this page is on that register, which is why they are here — the list is drawn from the register itself rather than from applications to be listed. Using an installer who is not on it means the grant cannot be claimed at all, whatever the quality of the work. In Kilkenny that matters most for heat pumps, where 11 of the 25 are registered for the measure.
How much is the heat pump grant worth in Kilkenny?
Up to €12,500 as of July 2026, made up of €6,500 for the heat pump, €4,000 as the Renewable Heat Bonus for replacing oil, gas or solid fuel, and €2,000 towards radiators and pipework. Reaching the full amount depends on the house, not the county. Oil-heated rural homes make the Renewable Heat Bonus the largest single part of the package for most households here.
Which towns in Kilkenny do these installers cover?
Between them the listed contractors take work across the county, from Kilkenny city, Callan, Thomastown and Castlecomer and the smaller towns and villages in between. Most cover the whole of Kilkenny rather than one town, so it is worth asking about your own address when you call.
Can installers from counties bordering Kilkenny do the work?
They can. Registration is national, not county by county, so a contractor listed under Carlow, Waterford, Tipperary can quote for a home in Kilkenny and process the grant exactly the same way. If you are near the border it is worth getting quotes from both lists.

Does my Kilkenny home qualify for an SEAI grant?
A home built and occupied before 2021 usually qualifies. Kilkenny city and the surrounding rural county, much of it on oil heating, see steady demand for heat pump and solar installations. A registered installer confirms eligibility during a free survey before any work is committed, and insulation comes first on any upgrade, since a well-sealed house gets the most from a heat pump.
The Other Trades a Kilkenny Retrofit Needs
A renewable heating upgrade rarely happens on its own, and the order the work goes in decides what it costs. These are SEAI-registered trades covering Kilkenny on our sister sites, each one worth lining up before the heating work starts rather than after.
- Before the heating work Attic and wall insulation in Kilkenny Insulate before you heat. A well-sealed home needs a smaller heat pump and costs less to run, and insulation carries SEAI grants of its own.
- Alongside the installation Plumbers and gas installers in Kilkenny Taking out an old oil or gas boiler, reworking the heating circuit and fitting the hot water cylinder is a registered plumber’s job, and a heat pump needs an RGI plumber to commission it.
