Which Gas Boiler Should You Choose?

Choose Your New Gas Combi Boiler

A few of my customers have an old copper hot water cylinder & gas system boiler in their home and sometimes your system isn’t suited to remove the hot water cylinder and swap over to a combi boiler, so I do sometimes supply & fit new gas system boilers.

Normally you have either an old system that can be upgraded, or your old boiler is already a gas combination (combi) boiler that supplies hot water and central heating directly from 1 boiler.

I’m an approved installer for 5 manufacturers BUT most of my clients choose Worcester, Vaillant or Ideal gas combi boilers.

I’ve been repairing gas heating & boilers for many years so when I’m quoting to install one, I also think about maintenance and repair long term rather than just the installation. To be honest I seem to repair a lot of Worcester gas combi boiler’s these days.

The old Worcester’s from 20 years ago were excellent but I think the newer makes and models have gone down hill in recent years. Worcester are partly owned by British Gas so have a lot of money behind them for brand marketing, but I think other boilers have improved and over-taken Worcester in both quality & design. In particular the way the new Worcester compacts are designed is poor & they also cost several hundred pounds more for what is an average boiler.

Of course I’ll fit the exact boiler you tell me you want, but I often recommend Ideal boilers, simply because they are super reliable and good value for your money.

Many years ago Ideal made a model of gas combi boiler that gave them a poorer reputation and it takes a long time to shake off a bad rep. But in reality they began making a new boiler 6 yrs ago which is exceptional, plus they’ve tweaked it and upgraded it since it’s first production. I can put a 10 yr warranty on the Ideal Logic Plus boiler or a 16 yr warranty on the Ideal Vogue boiler which is pretty amazing. Zero risk of repair costs for 16 yrs! As far as I know you can’t get anywhere near a 16 yr warranty on any other boiler and this speaks volumes for the quality and reliability of the Ideal boilers.

Customer service in my experience from Worcester and Ideal is excellent so there’s nothing between them on that score, and they both manufacture only highly energy efficient boilers these days.

I contacted Jamie to replace my boiler after recommendations from my Sister and Nephew who had both had their boilers replaced by him. The cost was extremely competitive and the service was absolutely excellent. I live in a tiny, old house with 18" thick walls and my old boiler was absolutely ancient so I'm sure the job wasn't the most straightforward but Jamie has done a fantastic job. He's also a really nice chap and very trustworthy. I have absolutely no reservations in recommending him to you! Thanks Jamieread more

Amazing job done from start to finish! I got in touch about needing an old boiler removed and a new one fitted. Communication was amazing and Akeel was at the house having a look and providing me with options and a quote within a couple of days. Very knowledgeable and helpful when it came to where to put the new boiler and what type to go for. He gave us a really good price for the work compared to other quotes we had done. Akeel did an amazing job installing the new boiler. He removed the old boiler and even removed kitchen cupboards that were in the way of the installation. He also disposed of all the old boiler and debris from the work without any extra charges. I can’t recommend this company enough, really pleased with the work and I will definitely use them again. 5 starsread more

Excellent service from Aky, who installed a new boiler and wireless thermostat for me. Very professional and helpful, even installed a tee off for me so I could change the position of my washing machine. Thanks very much for your top quality service.

I cannot recommend this fabulous company enough. After months of having different heating engineers who charge £40+ a pop just to have a look and getting nowhere, the lovely Akeel turned up. He was there about ten minutes. Didn’t replace anything just did what he had to and for the first time in months we got up this morning to find the pressure ok on the boiler. This is after months of different plumbers coming out saying we need a new boiler or they take a picture and say they’ll be back with a part but never turn up again. . Akeel didn’t even charge us. He said if this doesn’t work he’ll come back and replace the part. So laid back!! Honestly if you need a plumber/heating engineer then don’t hesitate to ring these guys.read more

Jamie, Tim and Akeel make an excellent team. When we needed a replacement boiler, we intended getting 3 quotes. However when Jamie came to look at the work required, we were so impressed by his honest, open, enthusiastic and knowledgeable approach, we decided to accept his very competitive quote immediately. His team were very clean, efficient and polite and fitted the boiler within the day. They worked very hard and explained exactly how the replacement boiler worked. Jamie oversaw the work and checked we were completed happy with it. The boiler that was fitted included an Ideal system filter and a 10 year warranty ( subject to a yearly service which Jamie quoted at a very reasonable price) We would definitely recommend Jamie and his team, and will be using them each year for our boiler service. Thank you to all of the team.read more

Jamie and the team were nothing short of fantastic. We bought our house in December and knew we needed to get the heating system redone. After being messed around by other companies we came across flame on boilers. They came to re-do our entire heating system in January. A fantastic job done at a very reasonable price, couldn't recommend them more. They were punctual, professional and even tidied up after themselves. Thanks Jamie from Sarah and Dan.

Not only was Jamie and his team professional, they provided excellent ideas, were on time, within budget, and extremely hard working. Jamie and his team wont let you down, they are responsive to your texts and calls, any issues that may arise will be tackled and solved quite quickly and efficently. I dont normally leave a review, but when you get a good team in that does a great job for a fair price, well, they deserve recommending. Going forward i have no doubt i will be using Jamie, Akeel and Tim for other jobs planned in my house, and will be passing on the good feedback to family and friends as they really do deserve it. Thanks lads .... see you again soon .... Gareth.read more

Jamie, Tim and Dave have just installed a new combi boiler system for me. I had an old back boiler which needed replacing, and they worked tirelessly for three days, as it was a big job. Nothing was too much trouble for them, and they were so friendly, polite, punctual and very efficient. I now have a brand new heating system, which I’m really pleased with. I would definitely recommend Jamie and his team!

I called Jamie after being let down by another company regarding a leak in our boiler. Jamie came out to inspect the problem and told me what exactly the issue was. He concluded we would need a new boiler fitted and assured me he would fit the best quality boiler available. Jamie and his team got the job done quickly and professionally. The team were very clean always tidying up after themselves and Jamie even hoovered up any mess made! I highly recommend to get in contact with Jamie if you're experiencing anyheating or boiler problems as he is very knowledgeable and completes the job to the highest standard. New boilers can be terribly expensive however, using flame on boiler installation feels like money well spent! Thanks again Jamie 😊read more

Excellent service. Reliable, hard working and genuine. Jamie and his colleague Vince attended our home to fit a much needed new boiler. They stayed until they completed the job and our home was warm and cosy when they left. The standard of work was excellent and they respected our home and left it super tidy. Thank you very much. Would highly recommend.

Very happy with the level of service. Jamie was professional on the phone and organised our boiler installation within 48 hours of phoning with his colleague Akeel. Akeel was punctual, polite, professional, hard working and clean. The job looked far better done than it did with the old boiler, and he gave me a run down of how it works and what he’s installed before he left, as well as explaining the service requirements without pushing us to have himself service it. After the job he did, we will absolutely be having them service the boiler in the future.read more

It was very impressive work at a very reason price and no hidden extra costs.Very professional work, extremely polite and friendly. An all round outstanding service.Thank you for bringing warmth back into my life before Christmas!read more

Jamie replaced my old boiler with a new one recently and he did a great job on that. Unfortunately few weeks later the boiler started losing pressure on a daily basis. Jamie came out to ensure this wasn't due to any installation issues. We agreed that this didn't seem to be the case and he felt there might be a small leak in the system somewhere but there was no evidence of this in my flat....Until my neighbor below me told me they had a damp patch on their ceiling.... 🙁 Jamie came back promptly and had to dig up my concrete floor to locate the leak, which fortunately he was able to fix for me. It was a messy job for him but he was so patient and after few hours my flat was leak free and the boiler went back to its normal functioning. Jamie is so humble, polite and professional, I've been extremely impressed with his overall work. I couldn't have been more surprised when he didn't charge me anything for locating and fixing the leak!!! And his initial price for installing the boiler was very competitive! I highly recommend Jamie, and I couldn't have been happier with his work!read more

If your browsing because you want a new boiler and your reading this then please choose this company. Or repairs or service. I went off the reviews and the moment I met Jamie to get a quote I knew this company wasn't trying to bleed me out of money. They are honest and normal and won't beat around any Bush. Jamie is so polite. They did a amazing job and I couldn't be happier with the service the cost everything. Thanks so much guys highly recommend

I am absolutely ecstatic with the boiler Jamie and Akeel fitted for me this week. They're both absolutely amazing and I only wish I'd discovered them a long time ago! Honest, professional, diligent (... & also extremely humble). Poor Jamie had been here all day (in poor working conditions) and despite it approaching rush hour I couldn't get him to make his way home, as he was committed to tidying up for me. As conveyed at the time - you're a miracle in the industry (especially after the many conversations I've had with other gas engineers recently - I had totally lost all hope). Again, a massive thank you to you both - oh and don't work too hard!read more

Jamie did an amazing job on fixing my new boiler. He explained everything in detail, although it didn't make much sense to me he felt that it was his job in telling me about the installation. After he and his colleagues had completed it they found a problem with the pipes, a problem that they had never come across before and he wasn't happy that the job wasn't perfect. After spending a while and working longer than expected to find the problem, we agreed that he would come back and fix it on another day. He came back as promised and fixed the problem. I would recommend the company to everybody. I am finally happy and settled with my new boiler. Thank you Jamieread more

Jamie quoted me for a boiler replacement on 2nd April, the information & advice he gave me together with the price meant he was given the job. He fitted an Idead boiler & added a new radiator for the price he quoted on 15th April. Very pleased with the works carried out, a neat & tidy job, professionally carried out. I would not hesitate to recommend Jamie. He has also been given the yearly service check for the boiler.

Great from start to finish, had a few issues with my very old boiler, so initially phoned Jamie to discuss, he didnt try and sell me a new boiler, he suggested using my boiler until it failed as it was so old, rather than a repair, after a few days it did fail, so I called Jamie to organise a replacement boiler, he came on the day that suited me as well. The work was superb, he was very polite, answered any questions that I had, nothing was too much trouble, when leaving Jamie left behind an empty box he had forgot to load in the van, he drove all the way back from Huddersfield to Oldham to pick it up. I cannot recommend Jamie and his colleague enough. My neighbour was that impressed he is having a new boiler fitted as well. Thanks again.read more

I can honestly say Jamie and his colleague were 2 of the best gas engineers I had the pleasure doing business with. I had a full boiler replacement from system's to combi. He provided his honest opinion with no pressure and gave me the best quote.The completed job was top class and they cleaned up everything afterwards. Highly recommended.

Thanks a lot Jamie, You are your colleague were a breath of fresh air in helping me with my problem boiler. You turned up on time and assessed the situation and clearly explained what was wrong with my boiler. You also explained the all the alternatives in putting the situation right. We decided that the best answer was to replace the problem boiler and the price you gave was virtually half of other quotations I had received. Having agreed the price you then said you could do the replacement the next day and the new boiler would have a 10 year guarantee. And true to your word you and you colleague turned up as promised and did exactly that. The quality and neatness of your work was was excellent and everything is working beautifully. You also removed the old boiler and bits and pieces and left the site a lot cleaner and tidier then when you arrived. All in all a great job, and I would recommend you wholeheartedly.

When Jamie first came to give us a quote of all the work we needed doing we trusted him straight away. He explained what would be not only be the cheapest but also the most practical/easiest solution to solve our problems. Let me explain more, we only bought our house less than 6 months ago and from first sight we thought it was our dream house until we experienced leaking and low pressure water in our bathroom so we couldn't really use the shower/bath properly and caused us so many issues. Jamie gave us options to suit our budget but all in all we wanted the best solution that'll last us even though it'll cost us more at first. I can't tell you how amazing Jamie and his team (sorry I didn't catch your name) was and so helpful and clean/tidy - even his dust sheets smelled like fresh washing. We needed to change our boiler over to a combi system and they worked so hard to get it done as early as they could.Not only are they trustworthy people and that's hard to find these days with so many rogue tradesmen out there. They're friendly and understanding of each clients needs and budget. No question went unanswered and as first time home owners there's a lot of things we don't know so nothing seemed like a silly question. Everything was explained clearly and easy to understand. Jamie gave us real honest advice and that's what's invaluable in his services. I honestly can't recommend them enough. I even started asking them what other jobs and things they can do for us! I will be shouting about Flame on Boilers from here on out.Thank you Jamie and your team for restoring my bathroom/boiler/heating and allowing me to have blissful stressfree showers and relaxing baths!read more

Jamie and his team were incredibly knowledgable when they came to look at my boiler. An initial service turned into more work due to faults with the boiler but they were very thorough in explaining what was wrong and what needs to be done to fix it. They also showed me the perished parts that had been replaced and told me which bits were causing the problems. It was reassuring and I felt that I wasn't being blagged into more work just to get money. They were very honest about the work needed. They were very honest about the prices too and even reduced the price when the parts came in under estimate. They also did a great job of sourcing a rare part by ringing lots of suppliers to ensure the job was done that day. They did the job quickly and with minimal disruption to the heating and water. Thanks for the work guys and fingers crossed I don't need to see you for anything else too soon 🙂read more

Technician servicing the gas boiler for hot water and heatingWhen you contact a company for boiler installation in Manchester, one of the first things you will agree with them is what type of boiler you want. Most companies will carry a range of appliances so that you can find the perfect one to match your budget, lifestyle and type of property. However, you may also want to upgrade your system controls.

Improving your controls will have a number of benefits. Firstly, it will be much easier to maintain a comfortable temperature in your home. It can also help you to make savings on your heating bill, since the system will only run when it is really needed. Here are some of the controls you might consider including.

A Timer Control System

Most new systems come with a separate control which operates on a timer basis. This is very useful because you can set the heating to be off during the day, while there is nobody home, and to turn on an hour before occupants are due home. The majority of timers allow you to set the controls for three separate times during the day, and some will allow you to vary the times according to the day of the week.

The timer controls will also contain a thermostat, so that the heating will switch off when the room reaches a comfortable temperature. These are commonly fitted in a hallway, where they are the least obtrusive. However, it is better to have the controls installed in your main living area. This is because hallways tend to be cooler than your living space, and your heating system may therefore turn on when it is not really needed.

Cylinder Thermostats

This type of thermostat can be fitted to hot water tanks to save you energy. Older tanks tend to fire up at a set time each day, regardless of whether hot water is needed. This can be inefficient, because it takes a great deal of energy to fire up the system and heat the water.

A cylinder thermostat will be programmed to approximately sixty degrees Celsius, and can sense if the water is already heated to the required temperature. Consequently, the tank will not come on if the hot water has not already been used that day.

Thermostatic Valves

Thermostatic valves are fitted to the radiator itself and allow the homeowner to determine the best temperature on a room-by-room basis. If a room has multiple radiators, each valve should be set to the same value.

The values range from one to six, with a three representing a temperature of around eighteen to twenty degrees. If the room is already at this temperature or higher, the valve will sense this and the radiator will start to cool. You can adjust the value to be higher or lower if the room feels too hot or too cold.

A new boiler can be a worthwhile addition to a home. If you are looking for boiler installation in Manchester, a company representative can talk you through the options which will save you money on your energy bills.
