Do you Need a Trusted Boiler Installation Service in Halifax?

A reliable, hard-working boiler should be at the heart of any household. However, if yours is showing signs of wearing out, Huddersfield Gas & Plumbing is available to deliver a first-class installation service.

Summer is obviously one of the best times to have a new boiler installation, since it causes less disruption to your household. You won’t have to worry about going without heating for any length of time.

What are the signs your boiler in Halifax needs replacing?

The decision to invest in a new boiler isn’t a small one, especially during a cost of living crisis. However, in the long-term, introducing a new model can save you money. This is particularly true if you have a much older model which is no longer efficient. Boilers have evolved a great deal over the past 20 years and can significantly lower your energy costs.

A majority of boilers last for around 10-15 years. If yours is older than this, you might well be overdue for a replacement.

Did you notice your energy bills were too high in winter?

If bills seemed disproportionate with your heating usage,  it could mean your boiler has become less efficient. Another red flag is when you suffer frequent breakdowns. If you’re constantly having issues with your boiler, that suggests it’s near the end of its life.

If you hear strange noises, like banging, clunking or whistling, this can indicate problems which aren’t worth repairing. Huddersfield Gas & Plumbing is always happy to diagnose any issues you might be having with your boiler in Halifax. We can then recommend whether or not you need a replacement.

With the hot weather having arrived, you might not be using your radiators much at the moment. However, if it takes a long time to heat up when you do, this suggests your boiler is struggling to distribute heat properly.

Noticed a yellow flame? Boilers operating properly should have a blue flame. Unfortunately if it’s yellow, it could indicate that the boiler is not burning fuel efficiently and might be producing carbon monoxide, which is dangerous.

Water leaks are another sign that your boiler needs replacing. In some cases, it points to a serious issue that may necessitate a replacement. Another sign is inconsistent temperatures, with hot water not as hot as it used to be.

Noticed unpleasant smells in your home in Halifax?

If you detect any strange odors around your boiler, it could be a sign of a gas leak or other serious issues.

In many cases, replacement parts are hard to find for older boilers. In such cases, this can make repairs even more expensive and less worth it.

If you notice any of these signs, it might be worth consulting with one of our heating engineers. They can then assess the condition of your boiler and discuss replacement options.

How long do boiler installations take?

It depends on several factors, including the type of boiler being installed, the complexity of the installation, and whether it is a straightforward replacement or a new installation.

If you are replacing an existing boiler with a similar type and there are no major changes needed to the existing pipework or infrastructure, the installation typically takes 1 to 2 days. However, if you’re upgrading to a different type of boiler, it might require additional work.

More complex installations, such as those involving significant changes to the heating system, additional radiators, or relocation of the boiler, can take 3 to 5 days or longer.

If a boiler is being installed in a property where there was none before, this can take longer due to the need for entirely new pipework, radiators, and other components. This process can take 3 to 7 days or more, depending on the size of the property and the complexity of the system.
