The Benefits of Buying a New Boiler
If you are still unconvinced, here are a few reasons why buying a new boiler is worth considering:
Avoid constant repair costs: if your boiler seems to be on its last legs, then you will likely be spending a lot of money on maintenance and repair costs. One of the primary benefits of buying a replacement boiler is investing in a new and reliable boiler that will function efficiently, under warranty.
Keep those energy bills down: again, with a new boiler installation, you can save a significant amount on your annual energy bills – which couldn’t come at a better time with the current energy crisis in full effect.
Greater control over your heating: newer boiler systems have far more effective controls, allowing for accurate heating control. This is particularly important when energy costs are high and you wish to make every penny count.
Less noise: as time passed, older boilers tend to get louder and louder. If you’d prefer to sleep soundly without any strange noises, then a new boiler installation is highly recommended.
Save space: newer boiler models are far more sleek than the older models. While this won’t necessarily save you a huge amount of room, having the extra floor space in the boiler cupboard can be incredibly handle for storing tools and other items you want to hand, but out of sight.
Peace of mind: the older your boiler gets, the greater the chance of it failing on you. As winter approaches and energy prices sky-rocket, the last thing you need is for that to happen. With a new boiler however, you can afford yourself the peace of mind knowing that you are completely covered.
Better home resale and buyability: if you are in the process of selling your home, prospective buyers will be far more interested in properties with new boilers and heating systems installed.
Electric Boiler Installation London
As mentioned above, electric boilers are the energy-efficient alternative, however, for what they boast in efficiency, the lack in power.
Again, the team at 0800 HomeFix will happily advise you on the best boiler type for your property, lifestyle, and requirements.
Combi Boiler Installation London
Combi boilers are among the most common boiler types found in the modern home. This is because they provide both central heating and hot water without the need for having an additional water tank installed.
Again, please do not hesitate to contact us today and we can advise you on which boiler type is best suited to you.

Boiler Installations: Frequently Asked Questions
What are the different types of boilers available?
There are a number of different boilers available on the market today, so deciding which one is best for your home can feel overwhelming.
One of the more common boiler types is the combi boiler. This includes both central heating and hot water in one, which means you won’t need a separate water tank installed.
System boilers on the other hand, require an external water tank. That said, this is only designed to store your hot water as the heating process itself is handled by the system boiler as well.
The standard boiler, which is common in older properties, requires a hot water tank and a cold water tank.
Gas boilers are connected to the gas mains and use this to fuel the system’s heating processes.
Electric boilers, as the name suggests, are powered by electricity, rather than gas.
What is involved in the boiler installation process?
The gas boiler installation process is carried out by an expert, Gas Safe registered engineer to ensure your safety and peace of mind.
As for electric boiler installation, our NICEIC registered electricians will handle the process for you, guaranteeing full compliance.
The first step is to talk you through all of the planned works. This is a great opportunity for you to ask questions and air any concerns.
Following that, our engineers will lay down dust sheets and get to work.
Once completed, your new installation will be commissioned, tested, and certified.
After all work is completed, our engineers will thoroughly clean up after themselves, leaving your property in pristine condition.
Finally, we will talk you through your new boiler’s controls so that you can operate it as comfortably and efficiently as possible.
Which boiler is more effective: gas or electric?
While the electric boiler has greater energy efficiency, if you are looking for a faster and more effective central heating system, then having a gas boiler installed might be the better alternative.
Which boiler is more energy-efficiency: gas or electric?
Modern electric boilers tend to run at an efficiency level of 99-100%. Gas boilers on the other hand are typically functioning at around 93% efficiency.
In other words, for every £1.00 that you spend on heating with a gas boiler system, 7-pence is wasted.
How often should I replace my boiler?
The average lifespan of a modern boiler tends to be around 10 to 15-years (depending on how well-maintained it is). Provided you have it serviced annually, you may even be able to get more out of it.
In any case, when your boiler starts playing up regularly, your repair bills get to be too much, and your energy bills go through the roof, it may be time to consider a new boiler replacement.
How do I know which boiler brands are best?
Just as settling on the appropriate boiler type can be confusing, so too can be deciding on which brand is best. The good news is that with our wealth of experience, we only stock the very best makes and models.
When it comes to choosing the best boiler for you, we will advise you accordingly. Otherwise, there’s plenty of information on boiler brand comparisons online, for your reference.
How often should should my boiler be serviced?
You should, at the minimum, have your boiler serviced once a year.
While it may seem like a waste of money to have your boiler serviced even when it is functionating properly, doing so can help to increase its overall longevity.
The fact is, there could be some wear & tear issues going on inside that only an expert heating engineer would be able to spot.
An annual boiler service can ensure that any potential issues are identified and resolved before they deteriorate into a far more expensive problem. As with anything in life, it’s always better to be safe than sorry.
How can I tell if my boiler needs repairing or replacing?
Generally speaking, if your boiler is playing up, there should be a fairly quick and easy fix – particularly when you call the expert plumbing & heating engineers at 0800 HomeFix.
As a rule of thumb, if your boiler is displaying any of the following symptoms, you should call an expert to come out to your property and inspect it:
Making strange noises
Turning itself off
Taking forever to heat up
Pumping out cold/warm, rather than hot water
Leaking
Producing a foul odour.
How can I tell if I am getting a good deal on my boiler?
At 0800 HomeFix, we are always striving to offer our valued clients the very best deals on new boiler cost and installation.
If you would like to get a quick, free quote so that you can compare with other providers, simply follow the link for your convenience.
In any case, we are certain that you will be satisfied with the quality of work and superior customer service that we offer our customers.
Will I have central heating and hot water during a boiler installation?
Depending on the type of boiler installed, you shouldn’t go without central heating and hot water for at least 1-day.
We will do everything that we can to ensure as little disruption to your day to day as possible. However, we always recommend to our customers that they arrange alternative solutions for hot showers in the meantime (e.g., at a friend’s, neighbours, or the local gym).
How long does a new boiler installation take?
For a typical boiler replacement, it can take up to 1-day to complete.
For a system conversion upgrade, you could be looking at 2 to 3-days.
How do I know if my boiler is energy efficient?
The easiest way to determine as to how efficient a boiler is is by checking its Energy Star Rating. A well-rated boiler and heating system will be far more efficient. A boiler with a lower rating on the other hand, will likely be better off being replaced.
