Homes with 1-2 bedrooms generally have a lot of lower hot water demand than a home with more rooms. It will have fewer radiators so the boiler won’t have to work as hard to pump the water around the system and keep the temperature at the chosen setting.

Buying the right sized boiler for a home with 1-2 bedrooms is crucial in ensuring that you don’t spend more money than necessary on your boiler and keeps running costs down by being more economical.

Below is a list of lower output boilers and their prices. We have ordered them in lowest output to highest output but you can arrange by boiler price if you require.

If you have a home that has 3-5 bedrooms then you will require a more powerful boiler. This is to ensure that the water reaches every radiator and tap at the correct heat. Your new boiler should not struggle to keep your home warm.

See the list of guide prices for boilers over 30kw. These should easily be powerful enough for homes with 3-5 bedrooms. If you have a home with this many rooms and hot water demand is higher, and you have multiple bathrooms or extra shower rooms that run off the mains, you may want to consider a system boiler or a regular boiler.

The price list of boilers is sorted in output order, lowest first. The bigger your home the more powerful or higher output boiler you will need.

What is the price of installing a new combi boiler?

Another factor that can affect new boiler prices is where they are being installed. If you are simply swapping your old boiler for a new one, and it is staying in the same place, this will help to keep installation costs down.

If you fancy a move or are required to move your boiler then you can pretty much guarantee the price will be at least £200 more.

How much it will cost will depend on which room you are planning on moving your new boiler to, or how far away from your old one. It will all depend on the amount of work involved and materials involved in the move. So if you are moving quite far, expect to pay more for the pipes extending just to start with.

If you are moving to a room that doesn’t have an outside wall or into the loft or attic, then you may need a vertical flue. This will be an extra added cost also. The extra piping and the extra work involved will be where the price will add up.

You are looking at around £200 for this extra work. Some boilers have to be fitted to an outside wall so always check with your engineer before you start. Most are capable of using a vertical flue but some aren’t so this is something to take into consideration if you find yourself in this situation.

See the below table for the extra costs involved in moving your boiler. It shows the guide price for a standard ‘swap’, which is basically a quick half day job removing one type of boiler and replacing with the same type in the same place. It also shows this type of boiler install and the cost of relocating your boiler under 5 metres away from where it is currently, and the price of moving it over 5 metres away. The further you move your boiler the higher the cost.

The type of boiler that is already in your house can be the main cost factor depending on the type of new boiler you want to have installed. If you have a gas combi boiler and you just want to swap it for another gas combi boiler you are going to save yourself a lot of money.

This is called a combi swap. This is basically the easiest boiler install for any heating engineers. If you currently have a system boiler, one with a tank, and just want another system boiler to replace it then this will also save costs too!

On the other hand, if you fancy a change, say from a system boiler to a combi boiler, this involves a lot more work. View the cost of new combi boilers if this is what you a looking for next. This is called a conversion. Hence, this will incur extra costs. If you are wanting to change to a combi then you are looking at at least £300 extra on top to do the conversion. This will involve changing all the pipework and possible removing any tanks that you currently have.

If you’re looking at moving your boiler and ‘converting’ to another type then as you can see your costs will be greatly increased. This may be a larger initial outlay but if it means saving you money in the long run by having a more economical boiler it may be worth it.

If you have s system boiler for example and you think your property could run on a combi (get some expert advice if needed) then converting may be for you.

A lot of combi boilers these days can do the job of a system boiler at a much more economical price. And they usually cost less and take up less room!

If your looking for a new boiler and you have managed to narrow down which manufacturer or manufacturers you are leaning towards then you will obviously want to know how much each boiler is going to set you back. If your pocket is going to take a decent hit, you want to make sure you are getting the best value. Buying a boiler that lasts is easy enough, there are plenty out there, is just making sure that you get your monies worth.

Do you really need to spend an extra grand on a boiler that looks good but performs pretty much the same? Not really but each to their own. Anyway, here is a guide to some of the top boiler companies you will no doubt come across on your boiler buying journey.

If you think choosing a boiler is a minefield, then you may now how the added problem of choosing the right person or company to come and put it on your wall. The boiler installation price is probably going to cost you more than your actual boiler, but in most cases, it is more than acceptable.

Which boiler installation company has the best prices…
