What happens on installation day
We arrive when we said we would, protect the floors and work area, and isolate the gas and water before removing your old boiler. The system gets flushed where it needs it, the new boiler goes on, and we fit a magnetic filter to keep sludge out of the new heat exchanger.
Before we leave, the boiler is commissioned properly — combustion checked with a flue gas analyser, controls set up and explained to you, and the system balanced so your radiators heat evenly. You get your paperwork, the warranty is registered, and the old boiler goes with us.
Choosing the right boiler for your home
The right boiler depends on your hot-water habits more than the size of your house. One bathroom and a couple of people? A combi is almost always the sensible answer, and it frees up cupboard space. Two bathrooms in use at the same time, or a large family? A system boiler with a cylinder will keep everyone in hot water without the pressure dropping.
Water hardness matters in this part of Kent too. Hard water is tough on heat exchangers, so we fit scale protection where it is needed — it is a small cost at installation that saves considerable trouble later.
Questions we're often asked
How long does a new boiler take to fit?
A straight combi swap is usually a single day. Moving the boiler to a different wall, or converting from a cylinder system to a combi, typically takes two to three days because there is more pipework and making good to do. We will tell you which applies to your home before you commit.
How quickly can you install a new boiler in Betteshanger?
In most cases the next working day once you have accepted your quote — sooner in an emergency where we possibly can. Winter gets busier, so if your boiler is limping along it is worth booking early rather than waiting for it to fail completely.
What size boiler do I need?
Boiler size is measured in kW and depends on how many radiators, bathrooms and bedrooms you have, not just the size of the house. Too small and you will run out of hot water; too big and you waste gas. We size it properly during the survey — a rough guide is that most three-bed homes with one bathroom suit a 24–30kW combi, and larger homes with two or more bathrooms often need 30–35kW or a system boiler with a cylinder.
Should I switch to a combi boiler?
Combis free up the airing cupboard and loft tanks, and suit most small to medium homes with one bathroom. If you have two or more bathrooms in regular use, or several people showering at once, a system boiler with a hot water cylinder usually gives a better experience. We will give you an honest recommendation for your household rather than pushing whichever is easier to fit.
Can I spread the cost of a new boiler?
Yes. We offer 0% APR finance over 12 or 24 months, with longer terms available at a representative rate. You will see the monthly figures alongside the total price so you can decide what suits your budget — there is never any pressure to take finance.
Which boiler brands do you install?
Mainly Worcester Bosch, Vaillant, Ideal and Glow-worm. They are the brands we trust to last, that have good parts availability locally, and that offer strong manufacturer warranties. We register your warranty for you after the installation.
