Good news as Library Service invests in more Home Energy Kits

Due to the positive reaction to the Home Energy Kits, which are available to borrow from your local library, the Library Service has purchased several more kits. The loan period has also been reduced to 7 days, which means that people won’t have to wait as long to borrow the kit. We do ask borrowers to please return within the 7 days so that the kit is available to as many people as possible. 

The Home Energy Saving Kit will help you understand your energy consumption and identify the most important areas of your home that may need attention as well as ways to improve energy efficiency. The kit has five practical tools: a plug-in energy monitor, a thermal leak detector, a radiator key, temperature and humidity meter and a fridge freezer thermometer. 

Contact your local library to check availability, opening times and locations are available here. If you are not a member of the library, that’s not a problem. Library membership is free, and you can join very easily at your nearest branch or online at https://www.librariesireland.ie/join-your-library.
