Why investing in a new boiler before Christmas could be the best decision you’ve made all year

17th October 2023

Radiator at Christmas

Yes, we know that Christmas is an expensive time, but bear with us. There are some seriously good reasons why investing in a new boiler now could be the best decision you’ve made all year. Depending on the age and condition of your boiler, you could be taking a risk, relying on it to get you through the winter. Boilers and home heating systems depend on a few things to get them into old age:

  • Regular annual servicing
  • Appropriate and timely maintenance
  • Clean and clutter-free environment

Provided you’ve kept on top of those three points, you should find that your home boiler makes it to 10, maybe a year or two older. We’ll pause there for a head-scratching moment, as you ask yourself how old your boiler really is, and try to remember the last time it was serviced. 

The truth is, many of us won’t have kept up to speed on servicing and maintenance but never fear, our team of friendly, qualified, and GasSafe-registered engineers are here to help you back on track. Just get in touch.

If you fall into the camp where your boiler is rather older than you thought; or perhaps you’re a safety first kind of person, there are a couple of options open to you to ensure this Christmas goes off without a heating hitch. 

  1. Decide on a new boiler to keep you warm this winter
  2. Consider a Sensible Boiler Cover plan to keep your home safe and warm

Depending on your unique circumstances, here are a few great reasons why option one could be your saving grace this winter.

Cost saving

New boilers are designed to be highly energy-efficient, often incorporating advanced technology to maximise heating performance while minimising energy consumption. By upgrading to a new boiler before Christmas, could actually save you dosh in the long run.

Peace of mind

The winter season in the UK can be harsh, with freezing temperatures and unpredictable weather. Newer boilers are less likely to fail, fact. So, if the family are all trooping to yours for the festive season, don’t risk them having to wear coats to eat their dinner. 

Reduced carbon footprint

We’re all more conscious of our individual contributions to the UK’s carbon footprint, with many of us resolving to do better in 2024. New boilers are more environmentally friendly and produce lower emissions than older models. So, by upgrading your boiler you’re on track to reduce your carbon footprint and do your bit for the planet.

Safety

This could actually be the most important of all. Older boilers are associated with more safety concerns, such as an increased risk of carbon monoxide leaks. A new boiler is equipped with modern safety features, and undergoes rigorous testing to ensure it meets safety standards; meaning you and your family are safer indoors this winter. 

Home value

Did you know that Christmas is one of the most popular periods for families to discuss house moves? A new boiler can add value to your home and also improve your home’s Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating.
