Electrical services for domestic heating and energy systems
Modern homes in Ireland increasingly rely on electric systems for heating, climate control and energy management. From wiring electric heating systems to integrating smart controls, registered electricians can support a wide range of efficient, future-proof upgrades:
Smart thermostats and zoned heating controls
Electricians can install programmable thermostats like Nest, Hive or Climote, which allow you to control your heating remotely and reduce wasted energy. Zoned heating systems let you control different rooms independently, improving comfort and reducing bills.
Heat pump integration
Installing an air-to-water or ground-source heat pump? Electricians are required to wire and commission the electrical side of these systems, ensuring correct connections to your consumer unit, immersion backup, and smart control interfaces.
Electric underfloor heating
Popular in bathrooms, kitchens, and extensions, underfloor heating systems need careful electrical setup, including thermostat programming, RCD protection, and power load calculations. Electricians can install or diagnose issues with heating mats or cables.
Immersion heaters and timers
For hot water systems, electricians can wire immersion heaters and install programmable timers to control when water is heated. This helps reduce unnecessary energy use, especially in homes with night-rate electricity tariffs.
Energy-saving lighting and appliances
Switching to LED lighting, energy-efficient extractor fans, and low-energy household appliances is a simple but effective way to reduce consumption. Electricians can advise on compatible upgrades and install them safely.
Solar-ready and renewable-friendly wiring
If you're planning to install solar PV panels or battery storage in future, electricians can help prepare your fuse board and wiring for smooth integration. This can include installing isolators, dedicated breakers, or capacity for inverter connection.
Energy monitoring systems
Some electricians offer home energy monitoring installations — giving you real-time insight into how much power your household uses. These systems can help identify high-usage areas and inform smart energy decisions.
Why upgrade your heating and energy systems?
Modern electrical heating systems are efficient, low-maintenance, and increasingly supported by government incentives. Investing in better heating controls and energy-efficient wiring can:
- Lower your annual electricity bills
- Reduce carbon emissions
- Improve home comfort and convenience
- Increase your home’s BER rating
- Qualify you for SEAI grants and energy upgrades
