Installing a new boiler presents loads of benefits for you and your home and whilst you might think that new boilers are expensive, you’ll soon be very grateful that you made the switch!
8 Benefits of a new boiler
Improved boiler efficiency
Your boiler is responsible for around 60% of your energy bills, so imagine having a boiler that is only 70% efficient! If you’ve had your boiler for over a decade, it may not even be 70% efficient so it is time for an upgrade. As of now, almost all new boilers are at least 90% efficient, giving you considerable savings on your energy bills. The 20% difference may only seem small, but the savings do mount up month after month.
Greater control over temperature
Getting a new boiler means you can install a smart thermostat in your home, giving you much more control over the heating in your home. Smart thermostats can be operated through a smartphone app, giving you control 24/7, no matter where you are. Not only this, they also give you monthly reviews of your spending, with handy tips showing where you increase your savings even further!
New boilers are quieter
The technology within boilers has improved massively over the last decade, along with the materials that they use. Because of this, new boilers are much quieter than older models. If your boiler is out of the way then this may not seem like a big deal, but it will be noticeable for those with a boiler on the other side of their bedroom wall, or in the kitchen.
Smaller, compact boilers
This new technology also allows boilers to be much smaller, as their design is more compact and concise. Due to this, boilers no longer need to be sat on the floor, as they can now be wall mounted. This gives you much more freedom with the location of your boiler, as they can be kept out of sight and out of mind. Commonly, they can be wall-mounted and hidden in a kitchen cupboard, keeping them close by but safely hidden away.
Better performance
Older boilers may find it more difficult to provide your house with a steady supply of hot water and heat over time. This may cause pain, particularly during periods of high usage. No matter the outside conditions, a modern boiler that is built and designed correctly may offer more dependable performance and guarantee that you always have access to hot water and a comfortable home.

Improved safety
Older boilers are more likely to have malfunctions and leaks, which can result in dangerous situations like carbon monoxide leaks or boiler explosions. Modern boilers come with sophisticated safety measures and are put through a thorough testing process to make sure they adhere to the strictest safety regulations. You may upgrade to a modern boiler and feel secure in the knowledge that your family and house are shielded from any dangers.
Increased property value
The value of your house may also increase with the installation of a modern boiler. When a property has a contemporary, energy-efficient heating system installed, prospective buyers frequently are ready to pay extra for it. When it's time to sell, you may perhaps recover part of the installation cost by updating your boiler and increasing the appeal of your home to potential purchasers.
Less maintenance
As they get older, older boilers frequently need more regular maintenance and repairs, which raises expenses and causes difficulty for homeowners. Modern boilers are built with fewer moving parts and better components that require less maintenance over time. They are designed to be dependable and long-lasting. By investing in a new boiler, you may have more peace of mind knowing that there will be fewer malfunctions or faults with your heating system, which will ultimately save you money and time.
