Boiler

If you are looking at replacing your boiler, one of the first decisions you’ll face is which type to go for. Walk into any heating showroom or search online, and you will be confronted with terms like combi, system boiler and regular boiler. For most homeowners, it’s not immediately obvious what the differences are or which one suits their situation.

When the colder months start creeping in across Derbyshire, the last thing you want is a boiler that lets you down. Every year, heating engineers see a surge in breakdown calls in October and November, usually from homeowners who haven’t had their boiler checked since the previous winter.

Your boiler works hard day in, day out. When it starts to struggle or finally packs in, replacing it quickly becomes a priority. But for many homeowners, the process feels uncertain. What type of boiler do you need? How long will it take? And what’s actually involved in getting it fitted?
