Cheap boilers

If you’re struggling to afford a new boiler there are options available to help you. Grants and funding such as ECO4 and the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) are available, and there may be more specific funding available from the local council or charities in your area. 

Additionally, many installers provide options to spread the cost of your boiler into more affordable monthly payments rather than having to pay the full amount up-front.

Developments in the design of boilers means that modern boilers can achieve higher levels of efficiency from installation than older ones. In fact, all new boilers must be condensing boilers which are A-rated for efficiency. In addition, as is the case with many appliances, the older boilers get, the less efficiently they operate. Both of these factors mean that you could save a lot of money on your energy bills by replacing your boiler, especially if your current boiler has been in your home for a long time.

Research shows that you could save over £500 a year on your energy bills by upgrading to a new, A-rated boiler!

The exact amount you’ll pay for your boiler replacement will depend on the size of your home and how many people live there, as well as other factors such as what type of system you require and if you want your new boiler installing in a different location. 

At BOXT, we offer fixed-price quotes for boiler installations that include everything you’ll need - no hidden costs or surprise bills once you’ve signed on the dotted line! Our installations start from just £1,745, or you can spread the cost into affordable monthly amounts from just £1 a day, with no deposit to pay.

Typically, you can expect a boiler to last for 10-15 years, and potentially even longer if it’s well looked after! More expensive boilers typically have higher quality components, meaning they’ll usually operate more efficiently and with fewer breakdowns for longer. However, even budget models should still have a lifespan of 10-15 years with regular maintenance and servicing.

How long your boiler lasts will depend on the exact make and model you opt for, as well as how well you maintain it. Ensuring you get your boiler serviced every year will help to stay on top of any potential issues, keeping it running more efficiently for longer.
