How much are the grants?
Grants are fixed for each type of measure as indicated in the table below.
Grant approval must be in place before any purchase of materials or commencement of measures undertaken.
Grants are paid after the measures are completed and the contractor has been paid by the homeowner.
In the instance where the cost of the work (vat inclusive) is less than the fixed grant amount, the actual cost will be reimbursed.

| Water Temperature |
 What temperature should my hot tap water be running at?
The temperature of stored hot water should be in the range of 60°c to 65°c and the temperature of distributed hot water should be greater than 50°c.
Under normal conditions the temperature of the stored water should never exceed 65°c.
A stored water temperature of 60°c is considered sufficient to meet all normal requirements.
For healthcare premises, the following recommended mixing valve outlet temperature settings are:
Baths supervised 46°c
Baths unsupervised 44°c
Basins 41°c
Showers 41°c
Bidets 38°c
Also if you have ever wondered what is the correct side for the hot tap to be on, it should as a matter of good practice always be on the left hand side to assist the elderly, disabled and especially the bind in identifying between the hot and cold taps,
