What is a Boiler?

A boiler is an enclosed vessel in which water is heated and circulated for the purpose of heating, powering, and/or creating electricity, as hot water, steam, or superheated steam. New Boilers are not inexpensive, and prices vary widely depending on the brands, sizes, and varieties offered. 

It's worth remembering that the savings you'll see from your new, more energy efficient boiler will frequently offset the price of installation and replacement. After all, it's estimated that your boiler accounts for about half of your annual energy expenditure.

1. Why a new boiler can make a big difference

You may be perplexed as to how a new boiler may make such a significant difference in your home. The answer is straightforward: efficiency. It's been proven time and time again that modern high-efficiency boilers are not only better for the environment, but also save you money on your energy costs thanks to their efficient heating systems. 

The newest technology will allow homeowners to reduce or eliminate inefficient space heaters while being able to keep warm during cold winter months by using much less fuel than older models. This means lower monthly utility costs - which add up! 

This way of thinking about it shouldn't come as too much of a surprise because newer technologies usually mean more cost savings down the line (think smartphones). A new model can pay off quickly.

2. The benefits of upgrading to a high-efficiency boiler 

If you're still using a boiler that pre-dates the 1990s, then it's time to start thinking about upgrading. Boilers made in the '90s often had lower efficiency rates than contemporary models and used more fuel.

If you have an older model, you are not only spending money on your energy bills owing to poor heating systems, but you are also wasting money on space heaters when it gets chilly.

Homeowners will be able to minimise or eliminate inefficient space heaters while staying comfortable during the chilly winter months while consuming far less fuel than outdated versions. This translates to cheaper monthly utility expenditures, which can mount up quickly!

This way of thinking about it shouldn't come as too much of a surprise because newer technologies usually mean more money.

3. What the latest, high-efficiency boilers are capable of 

The most recent high-efficiency boilers can make a significant difference in your home. They are more energy efficient, resulting in lower energy bills and less use of space heaters.

This shouldn't come as a surprise because newer technology typically results in more cost reductions in the long run. A new model can pay off quickly. 

Benefits include cost savings and lower energy bills from efficient heating systems, as well as the elimination of the need for a space heater when 'cold weather strikes.'
What they're capable of: replacing old boilers from before the 1990s.

Reduce Your Heating Bills This Winter

By Charlie Mizzen • October 31, 2024
With winter fast approaching, it's time to focus on keeping your home warm without the spike in energy bills! At Mizzen Construction, we've put together some simple and effective tips to help you cut your heating costs while staying cosy: 1. Bleed your radiators If your radiators are cold at the top but warm at the bottom, they may have trapped air. This reduces their efficiency, making your boiler work harder and driving up your heating bills. Bleeding your radiators helps the heat circulate properly, improving the system’s overall efficiency. 2. Insulate your home Good insulation is key to reducing energy use. Loft insulation and draught-proofing around windows and doors will help prevent heat from escaping. Even something as simple as fitting draught excluders can block unwanted cold air, helping you save on energy. 3. Lower your thermostat According to Which?, turning your thermostat down by just 1°c could lower your heating bills by as much as 10%. It's a small change that you might not even feel in terms of warmth, but you’ll notice the savings! 4. Install a smart thermostat A smart thermostat gives you greater control over your heating, allowing you to schedule when your heating comes on and goes off. This reduces energy waste and ensures you’re only using the heat you need when you need it. 5. Rearrange your furniture Placing large furniture like sofas or wardrobes directly in front of radiators blocks the heat from circulating around the room. Moving them away even slightly allows warmth to spread more efficiently, reducing the energy your heating system uses. 6. Service your boiler A regular boiler service keeps it running smoothly and efficiently. An inefficient boiler can waste energy, driving up your bills. If your boiler needs a service or upgrade, we offer expert boiler repairs, servicing, and energy-efficient boiler installations. Check out our boiler installation services for more info.
