Central Heating Replacement in Hedge End

Plumbright Southern carries out central heating replacement in Hedge End. We replace old pipework, radiators, controls and boilers that are tired, leaking or struggling to heat your home properly.

Signs Your System Needs Replacing

Common signs include radiators that stay cold no matter how often they are bled, regular leaks, brown or black water when you bleed them, and a boiler that keeps breaking down. If you have had several repairs in a short time, replacing the system may cost less in the long run.

More Information

Old Pipework and Sludge

Older systems often have narrow microbore pipes or steel pipes that clog with sludge over the years. When that happens, flushing only goes so far. Replacing the worst runs of pipe, along with old radiators, lets water flow freely again so the boiler can heat the house properly.

Moving to a Sealed System

Many older homes still have an open vented system with a tank in the loft. Replacing it with a sealed system removes the tank and lets the heating run under mains pressure. It frees up loft space and cuts the chance of air getting into the pipes and causing rust.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I replace my central heating in stages in Hedge End?

Yes. Some people replace the boiler first and radiators later, or work floor by floor. It helps to plan the full system at the start, so each stage fits the end result. We can draw up a plan for your Hedge End home and work through it at a pace that suits you.

Will I have heating while my system is replaced in Hedge End?

There will be times when the heating and hot water are off, mainly while the old system is drained and the new boiler is connected. We plan the work to keep this as short as we can and tell you in advance which days to expect it. In winter, an electric heater can help in the meantime.

Should I replace my radiators when I replace the boiler in Hedge End?

Not always. Radiators in good condition can stay, as long as they are the right size for the room. Old radiators that are rusting, leaking or full of sludge are worth replacing at the same time, because dirty water from them can damage a new boiler.
