Niamh recently moved into St. Canice's Hall Finglas with her two daughters.

As part of phase one of the ‘Improving Warmth and Wellbeing Project’, 52 homes in South Earl Street and Sean MacDermott Street recently underwent retrofitting works. The works involved the installation of new windows, doors, air-to-water heat pumps, increased levels of insulation and the installation of new roofs in order to increase comfort levels for Members.

The deep energy retrofit of 46 CHI homes in Westcourt, Dublin 8, began this time last year and included attic insulation, the installation of new windows and doors, and fitting new air-to-water heat pumps. We spoke to Phyllis and Bridget about the differences the energy upgrades had made to their lives.
