Cost Savings
Based on a saving of 25% gas usage, the Energy Saving Trust estimates the average saving per household on energy bills after installing a new boiler to be £310 per year. The table below illustrates just how much a modern condensing boiler could cut your gas bills by, depending on the size of your house (a boiler that’s 15 years old or more is classed as ‘old’ in these calculations. A lightweight boiler can be attached to a wall; a heavyweight boiler is floor standing).
Annual fuel costs with different boiler types
Boiler Type | Efficiency | Flat | Bungalow | Terraced | Semi-detached | Detached |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Old gas heavy weight | 55% | £799 | £1020 | £1062 | £1204 | £1705 |
Old gas light weight | 65% | £659 | £863 | £898 | £1019 | £1442 |
New non-condensing | 78% | £549 | £719 | £749 | £849 | £1202 |
New condensing | 89% | £481 | £630 | £656 | £744 | £1053 |

These figures are based on a gas unit price of 4.36p per kWh (April 2013) * source from which report 2013.
Since October 2010 only boilers that are installed in homes must be at least 88% efficient. All of the boilers we install are over 90% efficiency.
