What Are Grade ‘A’ Boilers?

In the realm of home heating, 'A' grade boilers represent the gold standard of energy efficiency. These boilers boast an impressive 90% efficiency rate, meaning that 90 pence for every pound you spend on energy gets converted into heat. In stark contrast, older, lower-grade models may operate with efficiency as low as 60-70%, highlighting the immediate and substantial improvements made possible by upgrading.

Benefits of A Modern Boiler

Transitioning to an 'A' grade boiler can reduce your household energy consumption significantly, leading to potential savings of up to £200-£500 annually on heating bills.

This relief on your finances is particularly impactful considering heating accounts for about 55% of what you spend in a year on energy bills.

A new & improved Combi boiler, increases efficiency of the home by converting more 'paid for energy' into actual heat within home.

Noticeable Savings

With superior technology, 'A' grade boilers consistently produce heat output that mirrors your spend on heating (i.e. every £1 spent on heating is converted into heat).

These newer boilers operate without excessive energy consumption, and heat hot water - improving comfort, and monthly bill spend.

Consistent & Reliable Heating

High-efficiency boilers can lower household carbon emissions by up to 1,200kg of CO2 a year—equivalent to the environmental benefit of planting 60 trees annually.

Changing your boiler is an essential stride toward a more sustainable future as we combat climate change.

Installation Process

Sumbit Application

First, we need to complete an application form, which allows us to assess your property according to grant guidelines. An agent will then contact you to discuss potential upgrades and finalise your application.

Initial Survey

A certified technician will assess your current system and heating requirements, providing a detailed overview that often reveals potential energy savings of 15-20%.

Technical Survey

After the initial survey is complete and the mock EPC passes, your application is fully vetted. We’ll then arrange a final technical survey to confirm the specifics of the work. Following this, we'll provide an installation date.

Installation

Professional installation usually takes less than 72 hours following the technical assessment, with a seamless changeover that ensures no disruption to your home heating.

Extra Information

'A' grade boilers have an average lifespan of 10-15 years, with regular maintenance. Annual servicing can help maintain optimal efficiency, preventing a potential performance dips over the boiler’s lifetime, ensuring continued savings and efficiency.
