Do I Need a New Boiler?
There are various ways to determine when it’s right to have your boiler replaced. Ultimately replacing a boiler when it is the right time can save you money in the long term.
You should have your boiler replaced if it:
- Especially old.
- Breaking down too often.
- Totally busted.
Your boiler may be beyond economical repair (BER) if:
- It breaks down a lot.
- Your warranty is out of date and leads you to pay for new parts/repairs.
- Expensive components like the heat exchanger or/and PCB need to be repaired or replaced.
What else should I know about old vs new boilers and when to replace one?
Boilers generally last for 10-15 years but even if a boiler seems to be still going strong after a decade, its efficiency levels have probably dropped down quite a bit. This would leave you with a more expensive energy bill due to higher running costs.
You may be losing money with an old non-condensing boiler. They can be more costly to run and less eco-friendly to use than a modern A-rated boiler model.
Old boilers that have been going for a decade or more are G-rated, with energy efficiency levels of about 70%. On the other hand, a new A-rated boiler would offer energy efficiency levels of 90% or greater.
Clearly, as you can see, replacing an old boiler with an A-rated alternative can be a cost-effective solution to your high boiler running costs and save you a lot in the long haul.
