"Natural gas is like an upgrade for my home heating, the radiators heat up so quickly now, great in the cold weather" firmus energy customer, Ballymena
With natural gas, you get all the hot water you want whenever you need it, so no more waiting around this winter for the water to heat up!
We always run out of oil at the worst time! A constant supply of natural gas is delivered via an underground pipe straight to your home, which means you will never have to arrange deliveries again!

We will arrange a home visit at a time that suits you. Our energy advisor will pop around and complete a home energy audit and answer any questions you may have.
We advise getting three installer quotes for the works carried out inside your home. You can select these installers from our gas safe registered installer list. This list can be found on our website or alternatively you can ask our energy advisor when they call to your home.
About 3-4 weeks after you have comfirmed you want to upgrade to natural gas, we fit a meter box on the side of your home.
Your choosen natural gas installer will complete all works inside your home. This may include gas pipes and any applicances you may have decided to upgrade.
And thats you… you’re good to go! Welcome to an easier life with natural gas.
“Our old system needed replaced badly! Our Installer did a first class job – they were in and out within a day and left everywhere tidy.”
“The installers who put in my gas were 100%. Excellent - very clean and tidy! I would recommend firmus energy to anyone! Keep up the good work.”
We always get asked this question and the simple answer is no. Your natural gas installer can upgrade your home to gas within one day. The team arrive in the morning, lay down protection mats where they are working and get the hoover out before they leave in the evening. The installers will remove your bulky oil tank and free up space in your hot press by removing your water tank. More space – no mess, no hassle, and no worries
Normally one day. Most of the installers on our gas safe registered list can complete a natural gas install within one working day. Of course every home is different so your installer will advise you on the works to be carried out and subsequent timeframes.
Every home is different so the total install cost will vary. However, we have calculated an average upgrade cost of around £2,200. That’s only £62 per month (over three years) with our 0% finance offer.

We often use a moling technique to connect your new meter box (on the side of your house) to our mains gas in the street. To do this we need to create small openings in the ground to connect the mains pipe to your new gas box. This procedure can normally be done very quickly, with minimal digging. Your energy advisor will fully explain this procedure before the works commence so you are at complete ease.
