Important Changes to Commercial Gas Safety Regulations in Ireland

From 1 September 2026, new requirements apply to non-domestic gas works in Ireland.

Under Statutory Instrument No. 106/2026, non-domestic gas works must now be carried out by a Registered Gas Installer (RGI) appropriately registered for this category of work.

The changes affect commercial and industrial premises across Ireland, including hotels, restaurants, offices, schools, hospitals and retail environments, and reinforce the importance of ensuring gas installations are designed, installed and maintained to the appropriate standards.

As the Irish distributor of Medem Gas Safety Solutions, Modern Plant works with consultants, contractors, installers and facility professionals to help deliver safer gas installations across commercial and industrial environments.

We also provide CPD courses on Gas Safety, helping professionals keep up to date with gas safety requirements, technologies and best practice.

If you are responsible for gas safety within a commercial building, now is a good time to review your systems, procedures and training requirements.
