Read more about why choosing the right boiler installers is so important.

Identifying When You Need a New Boiler

Is it time for you to replace your boiler? Frequent breakdowns, leaks, and consistently escalating energy bills are telltale signs that it might be time to consider a new central heating boiler.

But what about the potential cost savings? By upgrading from an old G-rated boiler to a modern A-rated boiler through boiler installations, it is possible to achieve savings of up to £800 per year on energy bills.

Most boilers now have energy saving technology such as boiler modulation or weather compensation kits to use even less gas!

However, if your boiler is under ten years old and receives regular annual servicing by a certified Gas Safe engineer, a replacement might not be necessary.

Selecting the Right Boiler for Your Home

With a variety of boilers available for home heating, making a choice can be overwhelming. The available types for home heating are gas combi, system, and regular boilers, each with its unique characteristics.

When choosing the appropriate type of boiler, consider the size and layout of your property, the availability of space for a hot water cylinder, and your budget or brand preferences.

Regular boiler replacement

For larger properties with multiple bathrooms, regular boilers can deliver substantial amounts of hot water at a rapid pace, enabling simultaneous supply to multiple taps and showers.

Whilst regular or conventional boiler installations have declined in recent years, with some manufacturers stopping them altogether, they do have their place in many homes across the UK.

Combi boiler replacement

On the other hand, having a combi boiler fitted is an optimal choice for a home with fewer occupants due to its ability to deliver instant hot water and efficient central heating without requiring separate tanks or cylinders.

Combi boiler installation is usually quick and easy as there are no external hot water tanks to deal with. You can order a replacement combi boiler and installation online super quick and easy too with our range of payment options.

System boiler replacement

System boilers, which function within a closed system using a hot water cylinder, are suggested for properties with multiple bathrooms or hot water outlets. A system boiler installation can be considered as an alternative to central heating boiler systems for homes that are not suitable or have too high hot water demand for a combi boiler.

We have a range of system boilers with installation available online, and you can get one fitted as soon as tomorrow if you order it before 2pm!

Where can I put a new boiler?

Ideally, the boiler should be placed on an exterior wall so that the boiler flue can be put directly through the wall to the outside.

This usually keeps installation costs down as installing a vertical flue costs more. However, essentially you could install one anywhere in your home if required.

Common places are putting a boiler in a kitchen cupboard, but other places that people request are such as a boiler in a bathroom, boiler in a loft or garage,

If you are converting from a system or conventional boiler, then another popular place is the airing cupboard where the hot water cylinder used to be!

This will ensure you have the most current pricing information available.

There are also numerous financing options accessible for boiler replacement, such as up-front payments, interest-free credit for up to 2 years, or customised loan arrangements based on personal circumstances.

Price Comparison for Different Boiler Types

When it comes to central heating boiler installation, the prices can vary significantly depending on the type of boiler.

The typical expenditure for replacing a system boiler falls within the range of £1,900 to £3,500, while the replacement of a heat-only boiler typically costs between £2,000 and £2,500.

For a combi boiler installation, the typical cost can range from £1,900 to £3,500.

The variation in prices among different types of boilers can be attributed to a few factors.

System boilers typically range from £800 to £2,000, heat-only boilers from £900 to £1,500, and combi boilers which are the most popular, ranging from £700 to £2,500 due to the integration of hot water production.

The cost of a new combi boiler is predominantly influenced by the size of the home and the number of radiators, as these elements impact the capacity and specifications of the required boiler.

Choosing the Right New Boiler for Your Home

While new combi boilers are a game-changer for many homes in the UK, understanding their strengths and weaknesses compared to other boiler types is crucial. Here’s a quick breakdown to help you pick the perfect fit for your property type:

Combi Boilers vs. Conventional Boilers

Conventional boilers with hot water tanks are ideal for large families with high hot water demand. However, they require significant space due to the separate tank setup. Combi boilers, on the other hand, are compact powerhouses, eliminating the need for bulky tanks and making them perfect for smaller homes.

Combi Boilers vs. System Boilers

System boilers offer a compromise by utilising a hot water cylinder for high hot water demand but eliminating the need for a cold water storage tank. This translates to more space compared to combi boilers but less compared to conventional setups.

Finding Your Perfect Heating Solution

By understanding advanced combi boiler features and their comparison to other boiler types, you can make an informed decision. Consider your home size, water pressure, and hot water needs to find the boiler that unlocks peak performance and delivers ultimate comfort and energy efficiency.

How Financing Can Make Boiler Installation More Affordable

Financing options can make boiler installation more affordable and manageable.

These include interest-free credit and monthly payment plans tailored to your circumstances.

The payment plans for boiler replacement offer options such as up to 4 years’ interest-free credit with no deposit required or the alternative of paying a 10% deposit and settling the balance after installation.

These options provide homeowners with flexibility and affordability.

When purchasing a new boiler, customers have the flexibility to choose from various payment methods. These options include:

• Cash payment
• Pay monthly boiler deals
• Upfront payments
• Tailored loans to suit the owner’s financial situation.

How to get the right replacement boiler size for your home

Deciding on the best type of boiler replacement depends entirely on your home; for example, a small boiler installation in a London flat with 1 bedroom would have a different boiler than a 5-bedroom home in Mayfair.

Here, we have listed some main features to look out for when choosing a combi, system or conventional boiler, and the key things to factor into your decision are:

1. Hot water usage:

Large families that use a lot of hot water will find a regular boiler or system boiler more efficient.

Therefore, a home with fewer occupants will benefit from a combi boiler. 

This will mean that running costs are lower, which will keep your energy bills down.

2. Home size:

Because combi boilers don’t require hot water cylinders, we can install them in a home with less space. See our recommended replacement boiler size chart or use this boiler size calculator to get the best boiler for your home

Size of Home & Hot Water Demand	Combi Boiler Output
1–3 bedrooms, 7–10 radiators, 1 bathroom	20–29kW
3–4 bedrooms, 11–15 radiators, 1–2 bathrooms	30–35kW
4+ bedrooms, 16–20 radiators, 2+ bathrooms	36–60kW

3. Solar water heating compatibility:

If you’re using solar to power your hot water, it’s essential to know that many combi boilers are less compatible and inefficient with this heating system. Contact us if you’re unsure.

When replacing regular boilers or system boilers, you should be able to keep the hot water cylinder to go with your boiler installation.

Combi boilers are the most popular in the UK. A combi boiler, also known as a ‘combination boiler’, is a 1-unit system that typically lives in a kitchen cupboard.

Whether it’s hiding a combi boiler in a kitchen cupboard or efficiency you are looking for they are brilliant unless you require a high demand for water at once to multiple taps. In this case, you would be better with a regular boiler.

Arguably, a replacement boiler is an investment. Over a period of time, especailly now with ridiculous gas prices, you could get your money back. And the more they rise the greater this investment becomes.

Seamless Installation Process with Gas Safe Registered Engineers

Gas Safe Registered Engineers play a critical role in the installation of your boiler. These are certified professionals authorised to work with gas in the UK, ensuring safe operations and compliance with mandated safety standards.

They are required to have accredited qualifications for the particular gas work they undertake and to have a distinct Gas Safe ID card that verifies their certified areas of expertise.

What to Expect on Installation Day

The installation of a new gas boiler typically takes between 1 to 3 days on average. During the process, you may face disruptions such as:

• The need to lift carpets
• Take up floorboards
• Drill into walls
• Access the entire property
• Replace pipework

Prior to the installation of a boiler, it is essential to conduct a chemical system flush to maintain system water cleanliness and prevent potential damage to the new boiler caused by system debris.

Furthermore, adjustments or enhancements to the pipework may be required to ensure proper fitting of the boiler.

Maximising Energy Efficiency with Your New Boiler

With your new boiler in place, it’s time to maximise its energy efficiency.

Smart controls for boilers offer a method to enhance home heating systems through precise room temperature control and scheduling, ultimately leading to improved boiler operation efficiency and reduced energy consumption.

Consider incorporating new controls, Thermostatic Radiator Valves (TRVs), and sensors to boost the energy efficiency of your heating system.

For example, the Bosch EasyControl, when paired with TRVs, provides comprehensive heating control, resulting in enhanced efficiency.

By installing a new heating system with smart control and a system filter, it’s estimated that you could save up to £300 annually on your energy bills, according to the Energy Saving Trust.

In addition to enhancing boiler efficiency, it’s also advisable to invest in a smart thermostat, as it can lead to additional reductions in gas and electricity consumption.

Smart Controls and Thermostats

Smart thermostats and controls for home heating systems are internet-connected devices that facilitate remote control of your heating system.

They include room thermostats, radiator thermostats, and other devices aimed at improving energy efficiency and comfort. Their features encompass remote temperature and schedule adjustments, behaviour learning, and compatibility with voice assistants.

Among the top smart controls and thermostats for boilers are:

• Hive Thermostat Mini
• Google Nest Learning 3rd Gen
• Drayton’s Wiser Smart Thermostat
• Tado Smart

These are compatible with all types of boilers.

Built-in Top Tech for Energy Saving New Boilers

Tired of battling inconsistent heating and skyrocketing energy bills? Combi boilers are the secret weapon you’ve been waiting for.

These compact marvels not only deliver instant hot water but also boast cutting-edge features that redefine home comfort and efficiency. Let’s crack open the code and explore what makes combi boilers so innovative:

Weather Compensation Kits Technology

Imagine a boiler that anticipates your needs! With weather compensation, your combi utilises an external sensor or local weather data to adjust its output based on the outside temperature.

This translates to a system that’s constantly optimising itself, reducing energy consumption and ensuring a consistently warm haven – perfect for keeping you cosy all year round.

Boiler Modulation for Lower Bills

Traditional boilers are like fire-breathing dragons, blasting heat at full force. But combi boilers with modulating burners are the energy-saving ninjas of the heating world.

This boiler modulation means they adapt their output to precisely match your heating demand, seamlessly shifting between low and high settings. Think of it as having a dimmer switch for your boiler!

This not only translates to lower fuel costs but also ensures a more comfortable and consistent heating experience.

Insulation and System Upgrades

Insulation is another key factor in enhancing the energy efficiency of your home. Suitable insulation types for residential properties with boilers include:

• Mineral wool
• Fiberglass
• Wood
• Cavity and internal wall insulation
• Suspended and solid floor insulation
• Foam board (polystyrene, polyisocyanurate, polyurethane)
• Insulating concrete forms
• Spray foam insulation

To further minimise heat loss and energy expenses, consider comprehensive insulation across the property, incorporating:

• Loft insulation
• Double glazing
• Draft proofing
• Insulating the roof, walls, and floor

The average cost of insulating a loft in a three-bedroom semi-detached home with a gas boiler system using spray foam insulation is approximately £3,500.

However, this cost may vary depending on the size of the home and the type of insulation used.

Preparing for Your Boiler Replacement

Before embarking on the boiler installation process, it’s important to get your home ready.

Here are some steps to follow:

1. Clear the vicinity around the existing boiler and radiators.
2. Ensure adequate working space for the engineer.
3. Switch off the hot water and thermostat.
4. Allocate approximately 60cm or 600mm of space from the fixed points around the boiler to ensure a smooth installation process.
5. Ensure a gap on all sides, including roughly 20 cm above and below the boiler, to allow sufficient clearance for the engineer.

A thorough understanding of the installation process aids in proper preparation and ensures a smooth execution.

A Gas Safe engineer will assess the installation area and existing setup prior to commencing work.

Clearing the area and having a good grasp of the process will facilitate a seamless replacement of your boiler.
