FAQs: Boiler Installation in Bedlington
How long does a typical boiler installation take?
Most boiler installations are completed within 1-2 days. However, complex systems or those requiring significant pipework alterations may take up to 3 days. Our experienced technicians always aim to minimise disruption to your home.
What types of boilers are most suitable for homes?
Combi boilers are often ideal for smaller homes due to their compact size and efficiency. Larger properties may benefit from the system or conventional boilers. The best choice depends on your specific heating and hot water needs, property size, and existing system setup.
How much can I expect to save on energy bills with a new boiler installation?
Energy savings vary, but many homeowners report a 20-30% reduction in their gas bills after installing a modern, A-rated boiler. This can translate to annual savings of £200-£300 for an average household.
How often should I have my newly installed boiler serviced?
We recommend annual servicing for all new boilers. This ensures optimal performance, maintains safety standards, and often is required to keep your warranty valid. Regular servicing can also prevent costly breakdowns and extend your boiler's lifespan.
What preparations do I need to make before my boiler installation?
Clear the area around your existing boiler and ensure easy access to the installation site. Remove any valuable or fragile items from the vicinity. If you have a system boiler installed, clear space for the hot water cylinder. Our team will provide specific instructions tailored to your installation.
Can I install a boiler in a different location from my old one?
Yes, it's often possible to relocate your boiler. However, this may involve additional pipework and potentially higher costs. Our surveyors can assess your property and advise on the most practical and cost-effective options for your home.
What warranties are offered with new boiler installations?
We provide manufacturer warranties ranging from 5 to 10 years, depending on the boiler model. Some premium models offer up to 12 years of coverage. Additionally, we offer our workmanship guarantee on all installations.
How energy-efficient are modern boilers compared to older models?
Modern A-rated boilers can achieve efficiency ratings of up to 98%, compared to older models which may operate at 70% efficiency or less. This significant improvement translates directly to lower energy consumption and reduced carbon emissions.
What factors affect the cost of boiler installation?
Key factors include the boiler type and brand, the complexity of the installation, any necessary system upgrades, and whether you're relocating the boiler. We provide detailed, transparent quotes following a thorough on-site assessment of your property and requirements.
