Different boiler types and their costs
There are three main types of boilers to consider, and each comes with its own considerations when it comes to price:
- Combi Boilers – A great option for smaller homes, these combine heating and hot water in one compact unit.
- System Boilers – Best for homes with multiple bathrooms, they work with a hot water cylinder to store heated water.
- Regular Boilers – Typically suited to homes with a traditional heating system and high water usage.
The type of boiler you choose will affect the cost not just of the unit itself, but also of the installation.
Factors influencing boiler costs
Several factors can affect the cost of your boiler installation. The location of your boiler plays a part if you’re relocating it to another room or floor, the job may require more labour and time. Upgrading pipework or flue systems may be necessary for safety or performance, which can also increase costs.
The size of your home and how much hot water you use will influence the type of boiler you need, which in turn impacts the overall cost. Even the time of year can play a role, as installations during the colder months may be subject to higher demand.
