Proper Budgeting

Purchasing a new boiler can be an expensive commitment. As a result, we recommend setting a reasonable budget. There are several kilograms difference between different boilers, so knowing your budget can help you narrow down your search.

Additionally, it is important to remember that a boiler installation will often also cost you money. Consequently, we recommend including the installation cost in your budget and ensuring that you have some extra room in case anything goes wrong.

The Right Deal

Check out different available shapes and sizes to find the best deals. You don’t want to pay more than you have to, and you can often find the same boiler for a range of different prices. Choose the best deal for you and make sure you don’t pay out too much.

Boiler Types

From conventional boilers requiring a hot water tank to combination boilers that are compact and discrete, there is a range of options available in terms of boiler types. Make sure you thoroughly research the different types of boilers before you begin shopping. That way, you will be able to narrow your search.

Furthermore, there are additional costs in the installation that may be applicable for some boiler types. For example, the additional pipework on conventional boilers may cost you more to install.

Boiler Sizes
