Boiler Installations
New Gas Boiler Installation
Did you know boilers that are over 10 years old are inefficient and could be wasting your money? Not only that, they have a stronger effect on the environment as they produce more wasteful gases and only convert 60% of the gas they use into heat. Investing in a new boiler could save you a significant amount in the long term.
Any new boiler that is installed has to be a condensing boiler, which converts a minimum of 90% of the gas used to heat, so you will see an increase of at least 30% on your boilers efficiency. Not only will this help reduce your environmental impact, it will also ensure you are compliant with current building regulations standards and you will also notice a reduction in your fuel energy costs.
There is a whole range of different types of condensing boilers to suit different homes and requirements. We can help you understand the different types and what may be best suited to your home.
5 Signs You Might Need To Ugrade Your Boiler
1. Age
If your boiler is more than 10-15 years old, it may be time to consider a replacement. Older boilers are often less efficient and more prone to breakdowns, making them costly to maintain.
2. Inefficiency
If your energy bills have been increasing despite normal usage, it may be a sign that your boiler is losing efficiency. This can be due to various reasons, including wear and tear or outdated technology.
3. Strange Noises
If your boiler is making strange noises, such as clunking or banging, it may be an indication of a fault. These noises may be caused by various factors, such as a buildup of limescale or damage to internal components.
4. Frequent Breakdowns
If you find that you’re frequently calling a repair technician to fix your boiler, it may be time to consider a replacement. Frequent breakdowns can be a sign that your boiler is no longer reliable or cost-effective to maintain.
5. Yellow Flames
If you notice yellow flames instead of blue ones in your boiler’s pilot light or burner flame, it could be a sign of a carbon monoxide leak. Carbon monoxide is a dangerous gas that can cause serious health problems or even death, so it’s important to address this immediately and consider replacing the boiler.
