Gas boiler service: what the job involves

The annual service on a natural gas or LPG boiler by a Registered Gas Installer: cleaning and checking the burner, testing combustion and safety devices, and leaving a Declaration of Conformance. Landlords use it as their record that the boiler is safe.

How long it takes: Usually about an hour; longer for an older boiler, one that fails combustion checks, or when a part has to be fitted the same day.

What jobs on Talqero came to

What affects the price

Boiler type: combi, system or regular, and its age and make
Natural gas or LPG
Parts needed if the service finds a fault
Additional appliances serviced at the same visit
Winter demand and out-of-hours visits
VAT: building work on a home is charged at the reduced rate of 13.5% by a VAT-registered business — unless the materials come to more than two-thirds of the price, when Revenue’s two-thirds rule applies the goods rate to the whole job. Ask whether a quote includes VAT.

County Kildare: what the figures say

37.0% of homes in County Kildare are heated by oil — below the national figure of 38.9%, the 25th highest of the 26 counties.
Where an oil boiler is replaced by a heat pump, SEAI’s heat pump grant includes €2,000 for removing it; until then, an oil boiler needs its annual service like any other.

Rules and grants for gas boiler service

The rules in Ireland

Only a Registered Gas Installer (RGI) may install, replace, repair or service a gas appliance or gas pipework, and they must leave you a Declaration of Conformance.

The rule comes from the Energy (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2006 and is run for the Commission for Regulation of Utilities by Safe Energy Ireland.
For every gas job the RGI must complete a Declaration of Conformance certificate and give you the original copy straight away; it confirms the work meets I.S. 813.
Every RGI carries a photo ID card numbered R followed by four digits, renewed each year. Check it on the register at rgi.ie.
Oil boilers are not covered by a statutory register; ask for experience with your make of boiler and a combustion analysis printout after a service.
