Central Heating Design, Installation, Repairs & Servicing

Every house presents different challenges. Victorian terraces with solid walls need a completely different approach to modern builds with good insulation. We handle the lot – from initial design through to final commissioning.

Central Heating Design & Installation

A properly designed system starts with understanding your house and how your family lives. We measure up, calculate heat losses, and work out pipe routes that make sense. No guesswork – just proper calculations that ensure every room gets the heat it needs.

We’ll help you choose the right boiler size, radiator types, and control systems. Want underfloor heating in the bathroom? Smart controls you can adjust from your phone? Planning to add a heat pump later? We can design with all that in mind from the start.

Whether it’s low pressure, weird noises, leaks, or cold spots on the radiators, we’ll find the problem fast and fix it on the spot. And if it’s been a while since your last service, don’t wait until something goes wrong – regular checks keep everything running smoothly and help prevent future issues.

Very professional outfit indeed. Did complete ripping out of old and installation of new boiler and water cylinder in two days flat, took great care while they were in the house and left it spotless afterwards. Also diagnosed a piping issue that nobody else who’s worked on my system had ever spotted, let alone diagnosed. Recommend without reservation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I use weather compensation instead of standard on-off controls?

Weather compensation technology automatically adjusts your heating output based on the outdoor temperature, ensuring your boiler or heat pump only works as hard as necessary. Unlike standard on-off controls that run at maximum heat regardless of the weather, this system lowers the water temperature sent to your radiators on milder days. This significantly improves fuel efficiency and lowers energy bills by allowing your boiler to stay in its most efficient condensing mode for longer.

Beyond the cost savings, you’ll also enjoy a more consistent indoor climate without the uncomfortable “hot and cold” swings typical of traditional thermostats. Our team can easily integrate these smart controls during your next boiler service or upgrade to help you maximise your home’s comfort.

How long does it take to install central heating?

Depends on the complexity. Simple system swaps often take two to three days. Complete new installations with pipework throughout the house typically need much longer. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe after surveying the property.

How do I maintain my central heating system?

Annual servicing is the main thing. We check everything’s working properly, clean filters, and spot wear before components fail. Also worth bleeding radiators if they start feeling cold at the top.

Do I need to replace my radiators when I get new central heating?

Not necessarily. If your current radiators are the right size and in good condition, they can often stay. We’ll assess what makes sense during the design phase – sometimes mixing old and new works well.

Can I add underfloor heating to my central heating system?

Yes, though it’s easier to plan for it from the start. Underfloor heating works particularly well in kitchens, bathrooms, and extensions. We can design systems that combine radiators and underfloor heating effectively.
