Will a combi suit the household?
The number of bathrooms, incoming water supply and simultaneous demand matter. A combi is not automatically the right answer for a home with several showers in use together. We review how the property is used and explain the alternative of retaining a suitable stored hot-water system.
More than a boiler exchange
Cylinder removal, redundant pipework, controls and the boiler’s connections can add work. Flue and condensate routes also need assessment. Explain whether you expect cupboards or loft spaces to be cleared and who will make good the space afterwards.
Plan the changeover
A conversion may involve periods without heating or hot water and coordination with other trades. Ask for the installation stages, access requirements, removal arrangements and what happens if hidden issues are found. Online indicative prices cannot settle all of these details.
