SEAI now lists grant support for efficient windows and external doors alongside insulation measures. Many homeowners ask whether these can be combined with an external wall insulation project.

Insulation, airtightness and openings interact. External wall insulation changes reveals and sills; window and door grants have their own eligibility rules. Price and specify each measure clearly before applying.
Talk to your contractor early
If you are considering windows or doors around the same time as a wrap, raise it at photo enquiry stage. Detailing around openings is easier when planned as one specification.
