Most modern boilers have the capacity to keep going for as long as 15 or even 20 years, especially if they are well taken care of. However, there does come a time when even the very best boilers need replacement and if this applies to you, then you might be wondering when is the best time of year to get it done.
Boiler replacements are done best if they are planned. Proper planning means that instead of dealing with an annoying breakdown which could leave you with no heating and hot water while you wait to have a new one ordered and fitted, you can instead plan to have the replacement at a time which is most convenient for you.
We will always look to repair your boiler where we can and in doing so keep the costs as low as possible, but, when there really is no other option other than to have a boiler replacement, the good news is that there are several benefits of having a new boiler installed to replace your old one. These include the following:
- Cut down on your energy use with a more modern, energy efficient boiler
- Save money on your utility bills because of the lowered energy use
- Reduce the risk of costly and inconvenient boiler problems
- Benefit from the convenience and reliability of the most up to date technology
- Be covered by a brand new boiler warranty
The Very Best Time Of Year For Boiler Replacement
In addition to planning your boiler replacement months in advance, so that you can be prepared to have it done at the best possible time, there is also a perfect time of year to have a boiler replacement carried out and that is during the summer months.
The main reason why the summer is the best time of year to get your boiler replacement done is because, when the weather is hot, you won’t be relying on your boiler as much to heat your home. As such, it will seem a lot less inconvenient to be without heating and hot water for a couple of days. When you know that it’s coming, you’ll be able to perhaps plan to have a hot shower elsewhere and most people aren’t even using their central heating at this point.
The fact is that boilers break down a lot less during the warmer months because they aren’t being used as much. For this reason and the fact that plumbers are generally a lot less busy in the summer months, there is much more chance of finding a reliable and professional boiler engineer who can get the work done. In addition, you will be pleased to know that boiler manufacturers offer better deals during the summer so you could save money, too.
