New Boiler Installation in Hedge End

Plumbright Southern offers new boiler installation in Hedge End, whether you are fitting a boiler for the first time, moving it to a new spot or adding one as part of a renovation or extension.

Planning Where the Boiler Goes

Where a boiler can go depends on the flue, the gas supply and the condensate pipe. The flue must be a safe distance from windows, doors and boundaries. Common spots include a kitchen cupboard, utility room or loft. We look at each option with you and explain what each one involves.

Sizing the Boiler for Your Home

A boiler that is too small struggles on cold days, while one that is too big wastes gas by switching on and off. We work out the right size from the number of rooms, radiators and bathrooms, and how much hot water your household uses each day.

Controls That Save Gas

A new boiler is a good time to fit better controls. A programmable or smart thermostat lets you set times and temperatures for each part of the day. Thermostatic valves on radiators let you keep spare rooms cooler. Good controls help the boiler run efficiently and can lower your bills.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you move my boiler to a different room in Hedge End?

Yes, in most cases. Moving a boiler means running new gas, water and heating pipes to the new spot, plus a new flue and condensate pipe. It adds time and cost compared with a straight swap, so it is often best done alongside a boiler replacement or a kitchen refit.

Does a new boiler installation in Hedge End need planning permission?

Most boiler installations do not need planning permission. They must meet Building Regulations, which cover things like flue position and efficiency. If you live in a listed building or a conservation area, check with the council before adding a new flue to the front of the house.

What size boiler do I need for my home in Hedge End?

It depends on how many radiators and bathrooms you have and how much hot water you use. A flat with one bathroom needs a much smaller boiler than a four bedroom house with two showers. We work it out from your home during a visit rather than guessing over the phone.
