Is your central heating playing up? Baths not as warm as they should be? Gas bills going through the roof? It’s time to take a look at your boiler - and think about exchanging it for a new and efficient model.
At Norman Heating, we’re often called out to repair broken boilers. However, if your model is over ten years old, it’s far better value to go for a gas boiler replacement instead of a repair.
Make Long-term Savings with a Gas Boiler Upgrade
The average repair cost for an elderly boiler is around €400. This goes a long way towards the cost of a brand new boiler. Plus, as most new models come with a warranty that lasts between 7 and 10 years, you won’t be looking at big repair bills for a while.
You’ll also see an immediate and long-term reduction in your gas bills. If your boiler is around 10 years old, it will be typically working at an efficiency of between 60 and 80%. Every time you fire up the central heating, you’re instantly losing up to 40% of the energy you’re paying for.
All the new boilers we install have at least 90% efficiency, usually higher. The calculation is pretty simple: you’re reducing your heating and hot water bills by up to 30%.
Upgrade to an Environmentally Friendly Boiler
As well as saving your household money, a new boiler also helps to save the planet. All the wasted energy has been spilling out into the environment as CO2. The more efficient your boiler, the less CO2 emissions it produces.
In recognition of this, you can even get an SEAI grant towards new heating controls or solar panels, so you can really upgrade your central heating system.
