We mentioned above that you can expect to get 10-15 years of service from a modern, gas-fired boiler. However, this doesn’t mean you automatically need to throw out your old boiler after a certain amount of time has passed. We normally recommend a boiler replacement in the following circumstances:

• Recurrent Faults – If you have to call an engineer to see to your boiler more than once a year or you have had to deal with several similar problems in a short space of time, now could be the right time to consider a replacement.

• Uneconomical to Repair – If your boiler develops a fault that will cost more to repair than its total current value, it really is time to think about buying a replacement model.

• No Longer Efficient – In the absence of any serious faults or breakdowns, there will come a time in every boiler’s life when it is no longer efficient. At such a time, a new boiler could potentially slash over £500 off your annual gas costs, making it a very appealing option.

• Persistent Leaks – A boiler that requires frequent attention due to persistent leaks is a prime candidate for replacement. Even without taking safety concerns into account, a replacement is often the best choice in these circumstances as it can work out cheaper in the long run.

• Relocation – If you need to relocate your boiler as part of a home renovation project, it’s normally easier to install a brand new model rather than to move the old one.

• House Sale or Rental – If you are planning to sell or let your house or flat, consider taking advantage of our boiler replacement service first. Whether you are letting or selling, you will find it easier to attract interest in your property if it comes with a brand new boiler.

• Conversion to Combi Boiler with a Long warranty – Although this can be the most expensive initial outlay when replacing a boiler, it is usually the best investment.  Converting a conventional heating system which incorporates loft tanks and a hot water tank in an airing cupboard for example to a combi has the following benefits.  1.  No equipment in your loft to maintain and frees up space.  2.  No equipment in your airing cupboard to maintain and again provides you with useful space.  3.  All major components which would normally be expensive to repair will be all contained within just the boiler and the manufacturer will repair it at no extra cost usually with in a few days and sometimes the same day.  4.  A more efficient system that costs less to run.If you are not sure whether now is the right time to replace your boiler, please do not hesitate to call and speak to us during normal business hours.
