Need to replace my oil burner. How much?

I need to replace my boiler and burner as its rusting badly and becoming unreliable. Its an external unit with galvanised casing. I can get it fitted by a plumber but how much form the boiler/burner part. Its for 10 rads in a mid terrace house. Thanks

If its rusting it probably means there is a leak in the pump. I got a quote to get my boiler and pump replaced (simelar problems, just bought a 2nd hand house) for €1,600

Cost me €680 to get a burner supplied and fitted last week. 20 minute job. Will obviously be more when there is a boiler involved.

Grant and Firebird are the best known makes in Ireland. Both should come with a Riello burner. Check with your local heating supplier and see which make they have. A 50/70 or 70/90 should do fine.
