BER Cert Clondalkin & Dublin 22

BER Assessments in Clondalkin

Clondalkin was another of Dublin's planned new towns, with rapid development from the 1970s onwards. The village core retains some older character, but the surrounding area is dominated by large 1970s and 1980s housing estates in Neilstown, Rowlagh, Bawnogue and Deansrath. Newcastle and Rathcoole on the western edge have a mix of older rural housing and newer estates. The Clonburris SDZ is bringing new development to the area. Most 1970s–80s homes have cavity block walls and the original heating systems, typically rating D to F. Newer builds along the N7 corridor perform significantly better.

BER Tips for Clondalkin Homeowners

Clondalkin's 1970s–80s estates are among the most consistent housing types we assess, cavity block walls, shallow attic insulation, original windows. The good news is that this makes them very predictable to upgrade. A standard package of cavity wall insulation, attic top-up, and boiler upgrade can move a typical Clondalkin semi from an E1 to a C1 for a modest investment, with SEAI grants covering a significant portion. Many homes in the Monastery and Bawnogue areas still have original aluminium windows, replacing these with A-rated uPVC or aluclad windows is now covered by the SEAI windows and doors grant.
