GAS BOILER REPLACEMENT

Gas heating systems are still the most popular method to heat our homes. Despite what you hear on the news, homeowners are still replacing the bas boilers with another gas boiler simply because there is no other heating system that is as affordable for regular homes and apartments. 

In many cases we hold on to our old boilers far too long. I understand the cost of replacing the boiler is a big-ticket item but if you have an old boiler that is 10 years old or more the new heat efficient replacement boiler will cut your running costs by half. In effect, the sooner you replace and aging boiler the more you save in the long term.

​

SO, HOW MUCH DOES IT COST FOR A NEW GAS BOILER REPLACEMENT?

The average cost to replace a combi boiler is £1.5k / £2.k. It very much depends on which boiler you choose as a replacement. It's generally false economy to install the cheapest boiler so you have to listen to the heating engineer's recommendation and do your own research to decide which boiler to go with.

WHY UPGRADING THE BOILER CONTOLS AND RADIATOR VALVES IS A GOOD IDEA

Keeping the running costs of your heating system as low as possible is achieved by choosing a more heating efficient boiler. You can also reduce running costs by ensuring you have adequate heating controls and thermostats. If possible, consider having a separate heating zone for each floor of the property and making sure you have decent quality radiator valves installed. If you have old radiators, then consider upgrading because modern radiators are also more fuel efficient than the old panel radiators. If in doubt, ask the heating engineer to look over your heating system with a view to upgrading.
