Homes in Dunshaughlin, and what goes wrong with their plumbing

Most homes in Dunshaughlin are newer: 81% were built from 1991 on, and 7% before 1981. Newer houses have plastic and push-fit pipe, so most calls are parts that wear: fill valves, cartridges, pumps and immersion elements.

41% of homes were built since 2011. In a house that new, check the builder's structural warranty before paying for a leak in the first years.

93% of households live in a house, so the stopcock is usually under the kitchen sink and the cold tank is in the attic.

28% of homes heat with oil, more than most of the area. Oil boilers are serviced by an oil technician, not a gas installer, so say which you have.

The water is very hard: Uisce Éireann's results for the Dunshaughlin supply zone have a median of 372 mg/l. That's hard enough to scale up immersion elements, shower heads and taps.

801 new homes were finished in Dunshaughlin from 2012 to 2025, the CSO's count.

Dunshaughlin's water is very hard, so immersions, showers and taps scale up fast. Turning the immersion thermostat down to 60°C slows it.

Uisce Éireann replaced over 1 km of old cast iron water mains along Main Street, pipes it said had become encrusted and caused bursts, outages and low pressure.
