When to upgrade?
Deciding when to upgrade your boiler is essential for maintaining a warm, energy-efficient home. Common signs include frequent breakdowns, rising energy costs, uneven heating, strange noises, leaks, or insufficient hot water. If your boiler is over 10 years old, it might also be worth exploring replacement options to avoid unexpected failures. Use the checklist below to identify whether it’s time to make the switch.
Time to change your boiler?
Here are some key signs that indicate it might be time for a new home boiler:
-
How old is your boiler? If your boiler is over 10-15 years old, it may be less efficient and prone to breakdowns.
-
Any recent repairs? Constantly calling an engineer for repairs can be a sign that your boiler is nearing the end of its lifespan.
-
Higher Energy Bills? Older boilers often lose efficiency, leading to increased energy consumption and higher bills.
-
Uneven Heating that is noticeable? Cold spots in radiators or rooms that never seem to warm up properly could indicate a struggling boiler.
-
New Odd Noises? Banging, whistling, or gurgling sounds might suggest internal issues like air in the system or sludge buildup.
-
Any Leaks or Corrosion? Water leaks or visible corrosion on the boiler or its pipework are clear signs of deterioration.
-
What colour is the Pilot light? A healthy pilot light should burn blue; a yellow or orange flame could indicate inefficient gas burning or even carbon monoxide production.
-
How much water can it heat?: If your boiler struggles to provide enough hot water, it might be time for a replacement.
