Boiler Installations FAQs
What are the different types of boilers?
Combi boilers
The great thing about combi boilers is that they do not require a hot water tank and heat water on demand.
Conventional boilers
These types of boilers require a hot water tank to store heated water as well as a cold water feed tank.
System boilers
This uses a water tank, similar to a conventional boiler, which may offer a steady supply of hot water throughout your home.
What is the best type of boiler for my home?
The size of your property, the number of bathrooms, and your heating requirements will determine the sort of boiler you need. An experienced heating engineer will be able to offer the ideal system for your home, ensuring that it is both functional and efficient.
In general, if you have a large property with numerous bathrooms that are likely to be used at the same time, a system boiler or a conventional boiler with water tanks is highly recommended. When serving several taps at the same time, these systems can maintain excellent water pressure. Combi boilers on the other hand are ideal for medium to small households with a single boiler.
What is the price of a new boiler?
There are a few factors to consider when purchasing a new boiler. Some of the factors that you need to consider are the cost of the boiler system and parts, as well as the cost of installation.

What factors should I consider when hiring a trained heating engineer to install my new boiler?
When selecting a heating engineer, the first crucial thing to look for is that they are registered with the Gas Safe Register. To lawfully work on gas equipment, including boilers, heating engineers must be Gas Safe registered. A Gas Safe registration indicates that your heating engineer has completed extensive training and examinations to ensure that they are working with gas safely.
How long does a boiler installation typically take?
The duration of time needed to install a boiler can vary based on several variables, including the kind of boiler being installed, how complicated the installation is, and how well the current heating systems are functioning. Simple boiler replacements can usually be finished in a day or two, while more complicated installations could take longer. Based on your unique needs, your heating engineer will tell you an approximate time frame.
Do I need to replace my radiators when installing a new boiler?
When installing a new boiler, it's often possible to keep the current radiators provided they're in good shape and work with the new system. To increase heating performance and efficiency, your heating professional might advise replacing your outdated or inefficient radiators. During the installation procedure, your heating engineer will inspect your radiators and provide you with an assessment and recommendations.
Will a new boiler installation disrupt my daily routine?
Boiler installations cause some disturbance to your house, but heating engineers will make the process as comfortable as possible. Prior to installation, your heating engineer will go over the procedure with you, taking care of any necessary setups and short-term modifications to your heating system. They will also put out great effort to make sure that after the installation is finished, your house is left neat and orderly.
What should I do if I experience any problems with my new boiler after installation?
After installation, you must get in touch with your heating professional right away if you have any questions or concerns about your new boiler. They will have the ability to evaluate the issue, identify its root cause, and make any required corrections or modifications. Reputable heating specialists provide prompt support and aftercare to make sure you're happy with the installation of your new boiler.
