Planning to get a new boiler installed? Make sure to follow these steps...
Step 1: Get it installed during the summer
Planning to get your boiler replaced at a convenient time is not always a luxury that people are afforded, as with any essential appliance in the household, when your boiler breaks down it is a huge disruption to the family. Should the boiler be beyond economical or practical repair, you'll need a new one installed as soon as possible. This can be particularly difficult and inconvenient in the cold winter months.
Due to the lack of heating and hot water should the boiler break down, the winter months are the worst time for your boiler to let you down. It can result in multiple visits and longer waiting times to get expert advice from heating engineers. Having a new boiler installed during summer is a far less disruptive time of year to be without. This would also extend to getting your boiler serviced, don't wait until winter to have an expert look at your boiler.
If a fault is found, we as Gas Safe Registered engineers, are bound by law to make sure that the appliance can not be used until made safe, to prevent potential risk to life! Better to find these issues early when time is not as much pressure during warmer months.
For this reason, it may be worth thinking about planning your boiler replacement for the warmer, summer months, when disruption to the house is more manageable, particularly for family homes. The short term disruption on planned dates and times will make it far more convenient for you and your family to work around.
Step 2: Hire qualified heating engineers

Step 3: Learn what happens during an installation
During the installation of your new boiler, you can expect to be without some basic comforts for at least some of the duration. Heating, hot showers and even flushing toilets are some of the basic amenities you are left without. Some boiler installations can be completed within one day, such as combi boiler swaps or like for like replacements, however, some larger jobs can take longer and leave you without heating and hot water for longer periods of time than is comfortable. Upgrades from older systems with stored hot water and tanks in lofts to new combi boilers, for instance, can be more disruptive and time-consuming.
