She prefers to monitor gas levels herself and pay for top ups over the phone, as this gives her greater control over her budget. Ever since she s made the switch, Susan finds that she s using far less fuel. She even had to turn the thermostat down because it was too hot. Susan is environmentally conscious and keen to learn more about Calor BioLPG. Customer: Sean County: Cork Home: 4-Bed Bungalow, approx. 2,000 sq. ft.

His previous heating system was inefficient, and costing him a fortune in oil. After replacing the oil boiler with a high efficiency indoor gas model, he s delighted with the changes. His fuel bills dropped, his house feels warmer and he no longer has to monitor his own fuel supply a major plus for a busy business owner. And the best part - Calor handled everything from the initial consultation and tank delivery to installation and final certification.

He s so pleased he made the move, he even recommended Calor to his brother and sister. Customer: Nigel County: Westmeath Home: 4-Bed Semi-Detached House in an Estate, approx. 1,400 sq. ft. Original Fuel: Oil Heating Type: Radiators Appliances using Gas: Cooker Met with Calor Installer: Kevin Nea (Neaco Energy) Availed of: Free Gas and Price Freeze Tank: Semi mounded tank in the front lawn Upgraded Controls: Yes Availed of Grant (Either SEAI or HRI): Yes Nigel has a 4-bed semi-detached house. His inefficient oil boiler wasn t enough to heat the house during the winter months, so the wood-burning stove was always on the go too. Due to a recent change in personal circumstances, Nigel finally decided to switch to gas, and he hasn t lit the fire since so he s really noticing the savings. He no longer has to haul briquettes and logs into the house, so heating his home is now much easier and cleaner. He also pays his bill monthly, so there s no spike in his heating bills during the winter. His only regret is that he didn t move sooner. Customer: Olive County: Tipperary Home: 6-Bed 2-Storey House, approx. 4,000 sq. ft. Original Fuel: Oil Heating Type: Radiators Appliances using Gas: Cooker Met with Calor Installer: Bernard Bourke Availed of: Free Gas and Price Freeze Tank: 1t and 310kg tank Upgraded Controls: Yes Availed of Grant (Either SEAI or HRI): No Olive owns a large 2-storey house just outside the town. Heating her house was costly due to the inefficiencies of her previous oil boiler. Despite her remote location, she was delighted to discover that gas was still an option for her, with Calor. Two new gas boilers and a combi boiler were installed, her zoning was upgraded and her supply is now monitored automatically, so heating her home is now way more efficient. Customer: Conor County: Antrim Home: 4-Bed Detached approx. 2,700sq. ft. Original Fuel: Oil Heating Type: Radiators Appliances using Gas: Cooker Met with Calor Installer: PJ Mullan & Sons Availed of: Free Gas and Price Freeze Tank: 600kg above ground tank Upgraded Controls: Yes Conor and his family moved from their previous home to a larger 4-bed detached house, with an old boiler. It couldn t cope with their growing family s needs for hot water and having enjoyed the benefits of gas before, they wanted the same again. Conor was delighted that Calor could offer them gas, although they re not on the natural gas network. On their installer s advice, the family opted for the Vaillant Green IQ. Their big garden easily fitted a bulk tank and the existing boundary wall met gas tank clearances. Conor also loved the idea of automatic top-up, so they won t run out of fuel and is very interested in Calor s new renewable fuel, BioLPG.
