What do I need to think about?
There are several important considerations to make before selecting a boiler. Firstly, you need to think about the size of the household and the property. This will determine how much hot water you will need on a typical day and the heating requirements.
Secondly, look at the location for the boiler, including the amount of space that is available. This will influence what kind of appliance you can opt for. If you want a gas-powered machine, you will need to place it near an exterior wall so you can install the flue. Larger appliances need to be on the floor and not wall mounted.
The next thing to look at is the running costs. There are many different models available with varying efficiency ratings. The most efficient boilers will reduce your energy usage and provide cost savings. Take a look at how much you could expect to spend per month and whether this is affordable for you. In addition, factor in costs for maintenance and servicing.
A final thing to take into account is the safety. Electric boilers are thought of as safer because they don’t use or produce gas. If you do opt for a gas-powered appliance you need to make sure you install it correctly using a Gas Safe engineer. On top of this, you must service it annually with the aid of a qualified professional. It is also wise to install a carbon monoxide detector just in case there is a fault and a leak.

What are the pros and cons of different types of boiler?
It is wise to have a good look at different styles of machine before deciding which one will be best for you. Here is some useful advice about some of the most common types you will encounter.
Conventional Gas
A regular gas boiler can provide both heating and hot water. The machine will have a tank and uses a heat exchanger to warm up the water. They come in various sizes and generally have simple controls. The potential drawbacks are the higher fuel consumption than other models.
Gas Combination
A gas combi boiler is a single unit that can still provide both hot water and heating. They are space saving and can provide an unlimited supply of water. This is because they’re connected to the mains rather than a tank. The downsides are they are small and may not be suitable for larger properties. They also tend to be quite complex and can have high repair costs.
Gas Condensing
All modern boilers need to be condensing. This means that they have a condenser to collect waste hot gas and use it to pre-heat water. They are far more efficient as a result and cut energy consumption. The drawback is they require a flue just like conventional gas boilers. This can limit placement and issues can occur if the flue ever gets blocked.
Electric boiler
A modern electric boiler can be up to 99% efficient. No fuel is burned to heat the water so there is no risk of leaks. They are generally easier to install and you can position them in more locations. The higher costs for electricity than gas is the big downside.
Oil-fired
There are conventional, combi and condensing boilers available that are fired by oil. The fuel is amongst the cheapest available but you need to store it on-site so it requires an extra tank. The homeowner will also need to monitor the oil to make sure they don’t run out. In addition, the machines can cost more to service.
Need a new boiler?
It happens, doesn’t it? If your machine is no longer safe to use or you want to replace it with a newer and more efficient model, we can provide you with a quote. We can also advise you on the best boiler for your needs. This will ensure your home is always warm and always has enough hot water too. The most important decision to make is what type of replacement you want. You’ll need to think about all of the costs associated with it. This includes the price of the machine itself, the installation, maintenance as well as servicing.
Generally replacing boilers like for like is the cheapest option. In addition, installing them in the same location is wise because connections will be in place. If you do want to change to a new type of fuel or want to move the device you could be looking at a much bigger bill.
