70 energy-efficient houses are in the works for Dublin's Malahide Road

Parkside will have 3- and 4-bedroom houses available soon.

WE ALL KNOW that once winter comes, the heating bill pain begins.

There are ways to reduce the bills, but starting with an energy-efficient house must surely be top of the list – which is where this new development on the Malahide Road comes in.

These houses have ‘heat recovery ventilation’ systems to distribute air around the house. This takes in fresh air and filters it, before supplying it to the house, as well as removing warm moist air from the house, harvesting the heat from it and releasing it.

All the houses will have an A3 BER energy rating.

Features across all houses include brick facades, uPVC double-glazed windows, a hard-wood front door and solar photovoltaic panels on the house roof to help generate electricity.

Throughout the property there is a high level of floor and wall insulation, which adds to the thermal efficiency of the house.
