FOSSIL HEATING AND PLUMBING SERVICES

New boiler installation and replacement, explained properly

A new boiler is a significant spend. The starting point is not a stock answer or the most expensive model on the van — it is your property, the system you already have, and what you actually need it to do.

Only replace when it makes sense

We will always look at repair first where it is a sensible option — see how we handle that on our boiler repairs page. If your boiler is beyond economic repair, unreliable, or the wrong size and type for the property, we will tell you why replacement is the better call, and what that costs before any work is booked.

Gas, oil and LPG options

We install and replace gas, oil and LPG boiler systems, in combi, system and regular formats. The right choice depends on the fuel available, the property's hot water demand and how many bathrooms are being served — we will talk that through rather than fit the same boiler into every house.

From quote to handover

We assess the existing setup, set out the proposed work in writing and answer your questions before installation starts. Once the work is complete, we make sure you understand the basics of your new system — the controls, where the isolation points are, and what to do if something seems off.

What a new boiler installation involves on site

Typical work includes removing the old boiler, fitting the new unit and any required upgraded pipework or flue, a system flush where the age or condition of the system calls for it, and a full commissioning check before we leave. We recommend a magnetic filter is fitted to every system. New boilers come with a magnetic filter as standard if one is not already fitted.
