Boiler and appliance servicing

Make sure to have your boiler and appliances serviced regularly to keep them working safely and efficiently.

Concerned about an appliance?

Gas Networks Ireland recommends that gas appliances are serviced annually in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

If you are concerned that an appliance is not operating safely, or your appliances are not in good working order, have a safety inspection carried out by a Registered Gas Installer.

The benefits of regular servicing

See the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland website for more detailed information on servicing or replacing your boiler and the benefits of regular servicing.

 

Using a Registered Gas Installer for servicing, checks, and repairs

You must use a Registered Gas Installer (RGI) to carry out any installation, servicing, safety checks, repair or removal of any gas appliance or pipework. For more information see our RGI section.

Rented accommodation

Under the Housing (Standards for Rented Accommodation) Regulations landlords are legally responsible (amongst other things) for ensuring gas and other fuel burning appliances are maintained in good repair, safe working order and that every room as adequate ventilation.

Failure to comply with the minimum standards can result in penalties and prosecution. Local authorities can issue Improvement Notices and Prohibition Notices to landlords who breach the minimum standards regulations.
