  • Is the existing gas pipe the right size?
  • Where should the condense pipe be fitted?

  • Should I have individual thermostats installed?
  • Is it worth getting smart thermostats?
  • What are the benefits of having a magnetic filter installed?

Power Flushing

Power flushing is something to be considered when having a new boiler installed. Over the years your current heating system will have built up a fair bit of dirt and gunk, so when you have a new boiler installed the last thing you want realty is to be pumping old dirt and gunk through the new system. It is always worth asking the plumber that you choose to come and install your new boiler if power flushing is a service that they offer as doing this will get your new boiler off to the best possible start.
