Want to save on your energy bills💰keep reading!

Had a lot of people ask recently about boiler efficiency and changing the temperatures of their heating.

Most boilers are set at 70 degrees C flow temperature. 🥵

This creates a problem if you have a condensing boiler, (if it was fitted after 2005 it should be a condensing boiler).

Boilers don’t condense until the return temperature is at 50 degrees, this roughly means your flow should be at 60 degrees max!

If you see your boiler flue shooting a cloud of steam outside, 💨
chances are the flow temperature is set too high for the boiler to condensate.

Studies show this could save 5-10% on boiler efficiency, and all with out having to get your house coat out.

If you’d like advise on how to change your boiler flow temperature drop a comment bellow with your boiler make and model.

Other ways to save on energy 🍃
Get your boiler serviced, with our prices starting at £65 it’s easy for the price of a service to offset it’s self with energy prices being so high.

Or if your radiators are cold at the bottom your system is likely full of gunk, and every time you turn your heating on you are paying to heat up that gunk. 😬
Your system needs flushing out, it will save you a fortune.

A question I get quite a lot,

“Do you actually need to service your boiler?”

Well, there’s only few things which if they break it can really ruin your week.

I’d say for most people car and boiler come on that list.

If my car breaks I know its going to be expensive, and my plans for that week like work, gym and even doing the food shop are going to be pretty difficult.

So because of that fact I get my car serviced every year, and depending on what they fancy doing that year, it can cost maybe £200, anywhere up to £1000. 💰

However If my boiler breaks I cant call up a uber to bring me hot water and a temporary heating system.

It’s cold showers and house coats until its fixed.❄️

But from £50 a boiler service is pretty cheap.🥳

If you’d like to book in for a service please send a message or call, or if you’d like someone look at a fault, don’t worry our emergency call out rate starts at £50 too.

Constantly topping up the pressure in your boiler, but you can’t see any leaks? 💦
It’s likely to be a problem with the expansion vessel inside your boiler.

Quick way to check -👇

1. Start with your radiators cold, and make a note of where the pressure is on your boiler (it should be around 1 to 1.5 bar).

2. Turn the heating on, and turn the dial controlling the radiator temperature on the front of the boiler up to full.

3. Let your heating run for 30mins- 1 hour, you need the whole heating system hot.

4. If the pressure in your boiler is still between 1-2 bar the expansion vessel is likely fine, your problem maybe elsewhere.

5. If the pressure has gone up into the red, or close to 3 bar, you need to call your engineer to look into the problem.

It might not be a expensive fix, the expansion vessel may of just lost pressure and need recharging.

Or if you’re unlucky it may have split and need replacing.

I know it’s tempting to just keep topping up your system and avoid the cost of a repair.

But heating systems need chemicals called inhibitors inside.

These chemicals stop the water corroding radiators and the inside of your boiler.

Every time you top the system up you dilute these chemicals, the corrosion starts, and eventually creates sludge in the system.

And sludge in the system is the beginning of the end for your boiler 🥶

Worried about the rising gas prices, and it running out in the future 🥶

Have you heard about air source heat pumps and other renewable sources of heat and hot water 🍃

Heat pumps and solar panels are great, but don’t fit everyone’s needs or budget 💵

Hydrogen maybe the future of heating our homes, it never runs out and zero Co2 🍃

Some of the biggest manufacturers, such as Worcester and Viessmann, have developed boilers which can run on our current gas, and only require minor alterations to run perfectly on either a blend or 100% hydrogen.

If you have any questions about the future of your combi boiler feel free to send me a message 🙂
