With our lives being busier than ever, it’s hugely beneficial to get things done from anywhere and everywhere. Including our Smart Heating Controls.

Smart Heating Controls with Climote are quick and easy to install and give you better control over your home. You can access your home heating on the move from any Wifi enabled device by installing a Climote Smart Thermostat System.

So let’s look at some of the many benefits of upgrading to Smart Heating Controls:

Remote access to your home heating system

Have you ever left the heating or hot water on by accident? Or come into a freezing cold house? Or come home in need of a shower fast but you need to wait for the hot water to heat up? With Smart Heating Controls, all of the above is avoidable. You have full control of your home heating from your phone. Turning the water or heating on or off from work, while doing the school run or at the gym.

Save money

Possibly the biggest reason to move to Smart Heating Controls is to save money! You can easily view how much energy your using in your home and turn of heating controls or turn down when you see fit. A lot of the time we are using too much energy to heat our homes but when you can view it on your phone, it is easier to see the money your wasting while your out and about.

It’s pointless heating your home when no one is home but we often schedule the heating for a certain time but then we are running late – this is hugely wasteful for your energy and your pockets!

Easy to install and easy to use

We will remove your old clock. There are no new wires or cables required. Your 30 minute installation is fuss-free and we can guarantee there’ll be no negative impact on your home. We simply remove your current time clock and replace with your new climote HUB. No taking up floorboards, no unnecessary hassle. Just a fast, tidy installation.

After we install, we will give you a full demonstration on how to programme your new climote HUB and how to use the app, online & SMS services.

If you wait to replace your boiler, you may regret it! If it’s time for your boiler to go, say goodbye before you waste money on extra bills and extra repairs.

If your still wondering if you should replace your boiler, check out our top signs it’s time to upgrade your boiler below:

Is your boiler more than 15 years old?

Some boilers last 10 years, some last 15 years and some even last 20 years! Although if you got your boiler longer than 15 years than it’s either well past it’s living age or getting close. Either way it’s time to replace your boiler.

This is true even if you aren’t having any noticeable issues with your boiler. Technology in boilers has come on significantly in recent years and the old models just don’t compare in energy efficiency which will cost you more money in the long run.

Is your energy efficiency rating the reason to replace your boiler?

We expect everything to be A class in our lives so why should we expect anything lower from our boiler? If your boiler is not grade A or B you’re more than likely over paying on your energy bills.

An easy way to check your boiler’s efficiency is to look at the rating on its energy label; these labels have a seven-point colour scale, starting from dark green (A-rated) down to red (G-rated), with the most efficient boilers being green.

If your boiler is as low as F or G, it’s definitely time to replace your boiler! On this grade your boilers efficiency is only about 70%. Upgrading to an A grade could save you anywhere from €300 to €500 per year.

Are your radiators taking longer than normal to heat up?

If your radiators are taking much longer to heat up than normal – it could be time to replace your boiler.

If your heating takes ages to heat up fully or the house is never warm enough, or you have your water on but never enough hot water – it’s time to give us a call to check it out.

When it comes to choosing the best gas boiler for your home there are several aspects to think about including the size of your property and how much hot water you and your family can expect to use. To help you decide, we’ve put together the following guide on the different boiler types available to you!

Gas boilers are an ideal choice for homes that have a traditional heating and hot water system. The hot water system needs to be connected with a separate hot water cylinder. One cold water storage tank is needed to feed the hot water cylinder and a tank to maintain the water level of the central heating system.

The factors to think about when choosing a boiler include:

Is the boiler for a home or another property?

Why do you need a new boiler? Has your current boiler broke or are you looking for a more energy efficient boiler?

What type of house do you live in? Apartment, Semi detached, detached, terrace, bungalow?

How many bathrooms do you have?

How many bedrooms do you have?

What type of fuel do you require?

What type of boiler do you require?

Where will your boiler be located?

Where will your flue exit the property?

If you are unsure about any of these questions or need clarity on the best gas boiler for your home, please contact us HERE and we can help you.

See below the gas boilers we provide along with the sizes and how much they hold so you can make the right decision for your home:

After the closure of all non essential businesses on Friday 27th of March 2020, businesses in Dublin and nationwide have been struggling with loss of income.

The construction industry has welcomed their staff back to work on Monday 18th of May 2020 during Phase 1 of the Covid 19 reopening plan.

The Coronavirus has brought about some challenging times for the global society. We at Ramor Renewables were delighted to get back on site last week after almost 8 weeks of closure.

It’s great to see so many businesses opening back up in Dublin although some adaptions and changes have been made to nearly all businesses to ensure the safety of staff.

At Ramor Renewables, all employees adapted well to the 2 metre social distance and adhered to the Government Guidelines. Our goal is to keep people safe and to also secure the smooth operations on our sites.

We worked hard to ensure that all safety Guidelines were adhered to, as the health and safety of our employees and customers remain our number one priority. We will continue to follow the Government developments closely and follow all instructions and guidelines given.

We are now looking forward to welcoming the Phase 2 of the Government Roadmap that may allow for us to carry out further works in the households of our clients.

Be sure to get in touch for repairs on your boiler in your home in Dublin! Or if you need your boiler replaced, contact us HERE.

Phase 2 is due to go ahead on Monday 8th of June 2020. For Dublin and county’s nationwide we will see the following changes with Phase 2:

• The advice will be to still avoid unnecessary journeys wherever possible. You will be able to travel up to 20 kilometres away from your home as opposed to the 5 kilometre limit which was in place since 5 May.
• Up to 4 people may visit another household for a short period of time but everyone must keep at least 2 metres apart from people they don’t live with.
• People who can work safely while maintaining a 2-metre distance from others. Workers, like those who work on their own, as well as other workers who can keep a 2 metre distance from others can return to work. Social distancing requirements continue to apply.
• Organisations are to develop plans for a return to onsite working by employees in light of COVID-19, considering: social distancing compliance, hygiene and cleaning, compliance in higher risk situations, plans for medically vulnerable or pregnant people and extended opening hours to enable social distancing.
• Small retail outlets can reopen with a small number of staff on the basis that the retailer can control the number of individuals that staff and customers interact with at any one time.

For more information on Government Roadmap and all 5 phases, please see Gov.ie HERE.

For more information on the measurements we’ve put in place or for a free quote on your boiler, contact us HERE.

Roadmap for reopening society and businesses issued by Gov.ie

The reopening of construction sites was part of ‘Phase 1’ from the governments notice of reopening society and businesses. Also included in Phase 1 (issued on Monday 18th May 2020) was the reopening of hardware stores, builders merchants and those providing essential supplies and tools for gardening, farming and agriculture; garden centres and farmers markets.

Further details of ‘Phase 1’ can be found HERE.

Phase 2 is due to go ahead on Monday 8th June 2020. Phase 2 should allow small retail outlets to reopen with a small number of staff on the basis that the retailer can control the number of individuals that staff and customers interact with at any one time.

Phase 2 should also allow public libraries opening so long as the numbers allowed in are limited, social distancing is observed and there is strict hand-sanitising in place for anyone who goes into the library.

Phase 3 is due to go ahead on Monday 29th June 2020. Phase 2 should allow the opening of all other non-essential retail outlets on the basis of a restriction on the number of staff and customers per square metre so that social distancing can be maintained.

This is to be limited to retail outlets with a street-level entrance and exit and does not include those in enclosed shopping centres due to higher risk.

During phase 3 they also hope to see cafés and restaurants providing on-premises food and beverages can reopen. They must comply with social distancing and strict cleaning protocols.

For more information from Gov.ie on the roadmap, see HERE.

Hygiene at work for reopening businesses:

• Do not touch your eyes, nose or mouth if your hands are not clean. Do not share objects that touch your mouth such as bottles and cups.
• Disposable gloves: Do not wear disposable gloves in place of washing hands. The virus can get on gloves in the same way it gets on hands.
• Ensure people cough/sneeze into a tissue, sleeve or elbow to catch any droplets.
• Face masks: Face masks are unlikely to be of benefit it the wearer is not sick.
• Ensure no person with symptoms attends work/site. For example: fever (temperature), cough, shortness of breath, breathing difficulties, etc.
• Workers must adhere to a social distance of 2 metres from each other.
• Ensuring that all surfaces and objects are cleaned and disinfected regularly.

Replacing your old boiler will save you money

When your boiler is on the blink, most homeowners will do anything to avoid replacing your old boiler. It is actually a myth that replacing your old boiler will cost more than repairing it. 

Some boilers are well past their use by date and repairing it can be a lengthy and expensive process. Here are some tips on recognising when it’s time to say goodbye to your old boiler and save money with a new one. 

The average life expectancy of your boiler depends on the type of boiler you purchased but the standard gas boiler lasts between 10 to 15 years, if you keep it well maintained and serviced annually. The average life expectancy for electric boilers is between 8 to 10 years. 

A superior or rather expensive boiler can last up to 20 years, although the chances are that you will have moved to a new house, or need a more energy efficient boiler, before replacing your old boiler. 

Therefore if your boiler is giving you trouble and it’s getting to the end of it’s life expectancy, replacing your old boiler will actually save you money in the long run. 

An old boiler won’t only cost you in repairs but it will also cost you more in it’s day to day. An old boiler needs to work a lot harder than any modern boiler, meaning the money you could spend on a new boiler is being wasted on bills. With a new boiler, your home and water will heat a lot faster and you can avoid excessive costs each month.

Often an old boiler will have a lower band rating, which again means you are spending more money using the boiler each and every day. Boilers have an A-G band rating, A being the most efficient and G being the least efficient. This should be the first thing you check when you consider replacing your boiler. 

If your new boiler has a band rating of A or B, you should have a highly efficient boiler and will instantly save you hundreds every year compared to using a band rating of G. 

G-rated boilers are usually about 65% efficient, compared to A-rated which is 90% of more.  

A more modern boiler could not only save you money but in the long term provide more security and a guarantee of care with a warranty.
