Our Boiler Installation Process

Initial Assessment

Our Gas Safe registered engineer conducts a comprehensive evaluation of your property and current heating system. This includes analyzing your home's size, layout, insulation levels, and number of bathrooms. We also assess your hot water usage patterns, peak demand times, and current system efficiency. Water pressure testing and pipe condition assessment help determine the most suitable replacement options.

Choosing the Right Boiler

Based on our thorough assessment, we provide detailed recommendations for suitable boiler types and models. Our suggestions consider:

  • Required heating output based on property size
  • Hot water demand and usage patterns
  • Energy efficiency ratings and potential cost savings
  • Available space and installation requirements
  • Long-term reliability and warranty options
  • Future expansion possibilities
  • Your budget constraints

Installation Process

The installation typically takes 1-2 days, depending on complexity. We protect your property with floor coverings before removing the old boiler. The new unit is installed with necessary pipework modifications, followed by a system flush to remove debris. We install magnetic filters and chemical treatments to protect your new system. The final steps include pressure testing, safety checks, and full system commissioning.

Post-Installation Care

Our engineer provides detailed guidance on operating your new system, including programming instructions, efficiency tips, and warranty registration. You'll receive complete documentation including the Gas Safety certificate and manufacturer warranty information, plus emergency contact details should you need future support.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a new boiler cost in Fife?

A new boiler installation typically costs between £2,000 and £4,500, depending on the type and size. Combi boiler installations usually start from £2,000, while system boilers with new cylinders may cost up to £4,500. We offer flexible payment plans to help manage these costs.

How long does a boiler replacement take?

Most straightforward replacements take 1-2 days. Like-for-like replacements can often be completed in one day, while system changes (e.g., converting from regular to combi) may take 2-3 days.

Will I need to replace my radiators too?

Not necessarily. We'll assess your radiators during the initial survey. Modern boilers often work efficiently with existing radiators, though we might recommend upgrading older models to maximize system efficiency.
