New Boiler Installation In Edinburgh & The Lothians

If it’s time to change your boiler, the first step is to decide what type you need. There are three main types of condensing boilers: combi boilers, system boilers, and regular boilers.

Choosing a new boiler can seem daunting and confusing, but we aim to make this process as simple as possible. Our senior engineers promise to visit your property personally and take the time to assess and discuss your needs, ensuring your new boiler perfectly matches your requirements. 

Every client’s needs differ based on the number of bathrooms, the number of people in the household, and the individual’s lifestyle requirements. For example, two or more people showering at the same time.

The best option for you will depend on various factors, such as:

• Hot Water Usage: A large family that uses a lot of hot water could be better off with a system or a regular boiler. 

•  Installation Space: A combi boiler doesn’t require a hot water cylinder, so it takes up less space. The Worcester Compact range can fit inside a standard kitchen cupboard.

Usually, within 24 hours of quote acceptance, subject to stock availability and a completed survey.

We safely decommission and recycle your old appliance in line with WEEE regulations, no extra charge.

Absolutely. The models we fit run efficiently on today’s natural gas and will automatically adapt to a future 20 % hydrogen blend.

Replacing your combi boiler or system boiler all depends on the features and the actual boiler make. The boiler’s output can also affect the price, as higher-rated, more powerful boilers are generally more expensive. The cost of labour will also have to be factored in.

When installing a new gas boiler, you must employ an actual Gas and Heating engineer. Although a plumber can work on the pipework and radiators that make up your central heating system, they mustn’t work on the gas pipe or the boiler. The heating engineer needs to be Gas Safe registered. 

On average, 1-3 days. We have carried out full boiler replacements within one day, but each installation is different. Factors including location, new flue, and old and new pipework will all have to be taken into account, along with the complexity of the job.

When you book a boiler quote, we will gain a better understanding of your requirements and be able to give you an estimate of the time involved.

Like all mechanical systems, a well-maintained and up-to-date boiler service will ensure that your boiler lasts for at least 15 years, even longer, with modern, quality boilers on the market today. 

Warranties are always worth paying close attention to, and with up to 12 years on some of our ranges, this will give you peace of mind for years to come.

Not necessarily. When you book us for a home visit, this will be part of our home survey. Let the team know if you’ve been having issues with the radiators, such as cold spots, taking a long time to heat, etc.

1. Radiators take longer than usual to heat up

2. There is a bad smell coming from the boiler

3. Increase in your energy bills

4. Leaky Boiler

5. Strange or unusual noises coming from the central heating boiler

We cover all EH postcodes at no extra cost. We also cover areas outside of Edinburgh and have been to the borders and Kinross recently.

In most cases, yes. If you wish to keep it, we’ll reconnect and test it.

A full chemical power-flush is included with premium packages. Severe sludge issues are identified during the survey, so any additional work is costed up front.

Yes. A virtual photo survey or in-person visit is required to size the boiler correctly and ensure full Gas Safe compliance.

Only if the current 15 mm run cannot supply the required flow, we pressure-test during the survey and quote for any needed upgrade.

Yes. A magnetic filter captures sludge, protects the heat exchanger and is a requirement for many manufacturer warranties.

SEDBUK, which stands for Seasonal Efficiency of Domestic Boilers in the UK, is a boiler-efficiency metric developed specifically for the UK and is not a Europe‑wide standard. 

Across Europe, including the UK, manufacturers now normally describe boiler efficiency using the ErP (Energy‑related Products) framework, which expresses seasonal space‑heating efficiency as both a percentage and an A–G energy label. 

Modern condensing gas boilers that comply with current UK requirements (including those installed in Scotland) are typically A‑rated under ErP, with seasonal space‑heating efficiencies generally in the 92–94% range under standard test conditions, rather than the older 88–92% figures often associated with legacy SEDBUK documentation.
