Energy Efficiency Solutions & Tips
Upgrade to a More Energy-Efficient Boiler
Modern boilers are now range-rated and can modulate on heating. This means your boiler could be using as little as 3kW per hour to heat your home, saving you money while increasing comfort levels. A new boiler could save you around £580 per year on gas bills*.

Turn Down the Thermostat
Turning down your thermostat by just 1°C could save you around £105* a year on your energy bills.
Schedule Your Smart Controls
You can adapt your smart controls to fit your schedule, ensuring you never have to heat an empty home. Smart TRVs (Thermostatic Radiator Valves) also allow you to set different temperatures for individual rooms. Get in touch with Jason to find out the best smart control option for your home and lifestyle.
The benefits of a new boiler
Reduce Your Flow Temperature
We ensure your radiator, programmer, and combi boiler are always set up to run at maximum efficiency. Lowering the flow temperature of your heating system can significantly improve efficiency and reduce energy consumption.
Upgrade Your Radiators for Maximum Efficiency
Radiators are a key part of your heating system, and ensuring they produce as much heat as possible can reduce the workload on your boiler. Replacing old, inefficient radiators with new convection radiators means they will get warmer quicker, allowing your central heating system to operate more effectively.
Noticing Cold Spots on Your Radiators? Consider Powerflushing
Do your radiators suffer from cold spots? A heavily sludged heating system can increase your bills by as much as 25%. A power flush removes sludge, debris, and rust, ensuring your system runs more efficiently and effectively.

Our Top 10 Tips for Maximising Heating Efficiency
- Install TRVs: Thermostatic Radiator Valves (TRVs) help control the heat around your home, increasing comfort and efficiency.
- Insulate, Insulate, Insulate! The biggest savings come from keeping the heat inside your home. Insulating walls and roofs can significantly reduce bills and increase comfort levels.
- Use Timers and Thermostats: Properly time and control your heating and hot water with a programmer and thermostats. Turning your heating on when cold and off when hot is not efficient.
- Upgrade Your Boiler: Old inefficient boilers are costly and environmentally unfriendly. Replacing an old boiler with a new A-rated model can save you around 30% on running costs.
- Replace Old Radiators: Older radiators can be up to 30% less efficient than modern convection radiators. Upgrading can improve your system’s overall efficiency.
- Powerflush Your System: Powerflushing removes sludge, debris, and rust, increasing efficiency, flow, and heat transfer.
- Balance Your System: Ensure an even heat distribution across your home by balancing your heating system.
- Install Smart Meters: Smart meters provide real-time information on your heating and hot water usage, helping you reduce costs.
- Understand Your Controls: Reduce usage by understanding your heating system and controls. Only heat your home when necessary.
- Annual Boiler Service: Get your boiler serviced every year to maintain efficiency and keep your warranty valid.
Implement these tips to improve the efficiency of your heating system, save money on energy bills, and reduce your environmental impact.
