Insight Energy Systems provide annual servicing as well as installation of new A Rated Gas Boilers to domestic customers across Devon & Cornwall. We also provide repairs on existing boilers to help improve efficiency within your heating system.
Has your gas boiler begun to fail? Is it approaching the end of its lifespan? It may be time to consider a replacement.
If you find yourself spending significant amounts on repairs for an ageing boiler that continues to break down, it is often more economical to replace it with a new, energy-efficient system.
A new boiler provides improved efficiency with A-rated energy standards, along with modern controls and weather compensation for optimal operation.
There are now updated regulations regarding new boilers and heating systems, introduced in June 2022. These fall under Part L of the Building Regulations and aim to improve energy performance in both new and existing properties.
For properties installing a completely new heating system, regulations require systems to operate at a maximum of 55°C. However, in many cases, it may be more beneficial to install a heat pump as a long-term solution.
That said, heat pumps are not always suitable due to factors such as limited outdoor space or proximity to neighbouring properties.
For existing homes where only the boiler is being replaced (without changing radiators or pipework), regulations require that:
Each room has a thermostatic radiator valve
A system filter is installed
The boiler includes weather compensation
A suitable chemical inhibitor is added
