A decision to
install a renewable energy heating system involves a major
investment. This is a new technology area and you should
ensure that you are fully informed and proceed carefully
to ensure that you get a system that truly meets your requirements
and expectations.
Whether you have only just begun to consider a renewable energy
heating system, or even if
you are nearly settled on your preferred system, these basic
guidelines represent good
practice in the selection of the system. Ultimately the
decision rests with you the customer
and the basis for the installation of the system should be
recorded in some form of written contract between you
and your chosen installer.
The installation of certain products may constitute ‘works’
or ‘development’ within the meaning
of planning Acts and/or building regulations.
You should ensure that you have relevant approvals in place
before works commence.
Your installer is required to comply with technical regulations
under the Building Regulations Technical Guidance issued by
the Department of Environment (at http://www.environ.ie/).
