    Hi Niamh,

    Thank you for your interest. The cost depends on various factors, so it would be best for our Home Services department to speak with you. If you private message us your telephone number, we will organise a callback from them to you ASAP.

    Also, some general info regarding boiler replacement (with our Quick Quote facility) is here on the home Energy Services section of our website.

    Kind regards,
    Una

    Hi Niamh,

    No problem. I just checked that with Home Services for you and they confirmed yes, the digital controls would be mandatory for qualifying for the grant.

    Kind regards,
    Una

    Hi Electric Ireland

    Do you have to pay the 2.5-3K up front for a new boiler or can it be paid any other way.  Our boiler went kaput, it's freezing and we don't have a lump sum of 3K to hand over.

    Your website says "[font=Arial, 'Arial Narrow', sans-serif]At Electric Ireland, we understand that replacing a boiler can be expensive, so that's why we've created a Gas Boiler Replacement Package".  So is there a finance package with this?[/font]

    Hi Nassau,

    Thank you for getting in touch - this link provides details on that bundle, and our dedicated Home Services team can advise in further detail, on 1850 30 50 85.

    Thanks for your interest in Electric Ireland,
    Una

    Hi Una

    Thanks for the link but it doesn't say anything about financing the replacement and when you call Electric Ireland they say you have to pay up-front.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,178 ✭✭✭Electric Ireland: Una


    Hi again Nassau,

    Sorry about that. Thanks for clarifying.

    Electric Ireland does not offer financing on the boiler replacement - it might be worth contacting the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) in this regard.

    Thanks Una

    SEAI Grant €700.00 according to website - still a long way off the full amount.

    Looks like we'll be freezing for a while longer then (and paying more to ye for using electric blow heaters to heat up the rooms).

    Ah well, pneumonia here we come!

    My gas boiler is coming in and out. It will work only sometimes so you can't trust it. Is there a grant for replacing it. It is a potterton neta about 25 years old.

    Hi micratoyota,

    Thanks for your message.

    Customers can apply for a gas boiler replacement with Electric Ireland, and this is covered under the SEAI Better Energy Homes grant (if your home was built before 2006, and you have not previously claimed this grant).

    More information on the gas boiler replacement can be found online here.

    If you would like to discuss this further, we recommend calling the Electric Ireland Home Services team, as they would be in the best position to assist you. They can be called on 1850 372 333, from 9am to 6pm, Monday to Friday.

    We hope this helps. Should you have any other questions regarding Electric Ireland, please let us know.

    Thanks,
    Brige
