Boiler Installation Time
Another key factor to consider is the length
of time your boiler installation could take. A boiler installation could
take between 1 to 5 days depending on the work required . System changes
often take longer than like for like swaps, for instance, a change from
a regular boiler to a new combi boiler is likely to take longer than a
straight combi to combi swap . It is in your best interest to consider
the time it could take for your new boiler to be installed, as this
could give you an idea of how long you could be without your central
heating, as well as providing you with a timeframe should you have to
take time off work. Our friendly and reliable Gas Safe engineers aim to
complete all installations quickly and thoroughly and are committed to
getting your heating and hot-water up and running as soon as possible.
Boiler Installation Cost
It is worth noting that boiler installation costs and boiler replacement
costs are often compensated by the savings you make thanks to your new,
more energy efficient boiler. After all, it is estimated that roughly
half of what you spend on energy every year is down to your boiler. You
can find more information on costs and savings below Hertfordshire Boiler
Installers.
The location of your new boiler
The location of your boiler could impact the spacing and appearance of
your household, you should therefore think about a suitable place for it
to be fitted. It often saves homeowners time and money to place their
new boiler in the same location as their old one, as this typically
enables a quick and easy installation. However, if you believe that your
boiler could be better suited elsewhere, there are a number of locations
that you could choose from.
kW output/The size of the boiler
This is one of the main factors to take into consideration when
purchasing a new boiler system. A kW output dictates a boiler’s ability
to cope with your household’s heating and hot-water needs. The required
output tends to be reliant on the number of bathrooms and radiators that
are present within your home, so if your household tends to have high
central heating demands, you may need a boiler with a higher kW output.
It would also be beneficial for you to think about the physical size of
the boiler and establish the types of dimensions that would be able to
fit comfortably in your home. Here’s an estimated guide of kW outputs to
help you determine the type of boiler that could be suitable for your
home:

New boiler prices can vary greatly, the expense for one household may be
cheaper than that of another. For example, the boiler replacement cost
for their current combi with another of the same type could be less than
an individual looking to switch from a regular boiler to a new combi
boiler. Costs could also be dependent on factors such as the type of
boiler chosen, its size and the complexity of the installation process.
For instance, if additional parts or labour (such as scaffolding or
pipe-rewiring) is required, additional fees may be incurred. Here at
HomeServe, we aim to offer first-class installations of top boiler
brands, such as Worcester Bosch and Baxi, at competitive prices. We aim
to ensure that you get the best value for your money in relation to your

Energy-Efficiency of a new boiler
An energy-efficient boiler could allow you to make savings on your
energy bills by reducing your energy wastage**! All of the boilers that
we stock at HomeServe are A-rated for efficiency and could be coupled
with a state of the art thermostat (such as Nest or Netatmo) to
potentially provide you with the ultimate energy-efficient, central
heating system. Boilers such as our Worcester Bosch Greenstar 30i are
built with key feature such as user-friendly controls to enhance
efficiency by allowing you to set your heating to your preference and
avoid energy wastage. According to the Energy savings Trust, replacing a
G-rated boiler in a semi-detached property with an A-rated boiler could
save you up to £210 on your annual energy bill!**

If your boiler is beyond the point where it’s cost-efficient to repair
it. If you’ve called out a qualified engineer to look at your boiler and
they’ve told you that it’s at the point of no return then it’s time to
invest in a boiler replacement.
Older Boilers should be replaced
If your system has a ‘dry cycle’. A dry cycle is a feature found on
older boilers which means that if the heating is on, but your home is
already at the temperature set by the thermostat, it won’t switch off,
but instead will send the heat to an ‘overflow radiator’ (usually in the
bathroom). This can be a real energy waster, because you’re heating your
home when you don’t need to be.
On average, boilers last between 10 and 15 years. So, if your boiler is
coming up to this age, it may be time for you to consider getting a new
one installed. Besides their age, there are a number of other reasons
for replacing your old boiler system. This could include:

5 Things to be aware of when deciding about your new boiler location
When installing your new boiler there are certain factors which can make a huge difference in terms of the efficiency and the price of the new system. We are going to mention only the 5 most common factors here. These can be very important when choosing a new location to your new boiler.
- The most important question is. Are you actually changing the boiler only or converting the your heating and hot water system? If the answer is changing the system then continue to read on as it can save you a lot of headache in the future.
- Gas pipe sizing. How far is the new boiler location from the gas meter? It is important even when you want to fit your boiler in the same place as before. If converting system (removing hot water tank) and install a new combi boiler the gas consumption will most likely increase as the combi boiler heats the hot water instantaneously therefore uses a lot of gas. The minimum heat input for a new combi boiler is 24kw. In contrast if you had a so called conventional heating system the heat input is much less. Usually old boilers have 15mm gas pipe connections and can deal with heat inputs around 18kw max. Changing the gas pipe can put the price up significantly. Consult with your heating engineer before deciding about what system you want to install.
- Flue run. Always try to install your boiler to an external wall. It is the safest and cheapest to install. When trying to install boilers in loft spaces or airing cupboards without an external wall it is always going to be more labour and more flue pipes so the price will go up. Not to mention the maintenance cost of a longer flue run. Always try to keep your boiler on an external wall.
- Condensate connection. In most cases you are replacing an old non condensing boiler so you need to think about the cost of the condensate connection to your new boiler. The shortest the condensate pipe run the better it will perform and the easiest to maintain. Condensate water can be run from the new boiler in plastic pipe to the nearest drain or waste pipe. Such as soul stack, sink waste or the easiest is probably the washing machine waste pipe.
- Access and hot water outlets. Try to locate the combi boiler close to the most commonly used hot water outlets such as the shower and sink. It may be more practical to install your new combi boiler in the loft to free up space in the airing cupboard but think about any problems with the boiler and you will be climbing up in the loft on a daily basis in the middle of the winter. Not so good. New condensing boilers have a lot of electrical controls and self diagnostic functions which result in ‘lock out’ so you have to manually reset the boiler on a daily or sometimes hourly basis until someone will come and fix it for you. Not so much fun.
For most efficient operation and maintenance try to stick to this list.
Boiler on external wall
Close to a drain or waste pipe
Easy access location
Close to the hot water outlets if it’s a combi boiler
As Close as possible to Gas meter
