Advantages of a New Combi Boiler
Take up less space in your home, compact size
Combi boilers are considerably smaller than a conventional boiler due to not having to store hot water like a standard boiler does. This removes the need for a big hot water cylinder in your airing cupboard and instead replaces it with a small boiler unit that can be tucked away in your kitchen or airing cupboard, allowing you to maximise the space in your home.
Also, fitting a combi boiler will free up space in your roof or loft area as there is no need for a cold-water storage unit. Combi boilers get their supply of cold water directly from the mains. The lack of water storage units gives combi boilers the advantage when it comes to installation as well. No water storage unit means less work, disruption, and hassle when your boiler is being fitted, and it reduces the risk of pipes freezing during the winter.
Quick access to hot water and central heating
As previously mentioned, with combi boilers in Scotland there is no need to wait for your water to be heated because they heat water based on demand. Therefore, combi boilers are very convenient in homes with multiple people and a higher usage of hot water. Those waiting in the queue for the bathroom behind you won’t have to wait ages for a hot water tank to fill back up. Since water can be accessed on demand, there is no risk of hot water running out like there is with a traditional boiler.
Safer cold water for drinking
The cold water that is released from a combi boiler is safer for you to drink as it is fed directly from the mains. This is not always the case with conventional boiler systems, as they tend to store cold water in tanks.
Excellent efficiency
Combi boilers offer impressive levels of efficiency, in fact, combi boilers are reported to be up to 90% efficient. This makes heating your home in the winter more affordable and reduces your carbon footprint so your household will become more environmentally friendly.

Combi Boiler FAQ’s
Due to their modern and innovative design, combi boilers have become one of the most popular types of boilers for homeowners looking for instant hot water for their taps and heat for their central heating system from one single unit. The functionality of a combi boiler eliminates the need for a separate hot water cylinder or tank in the loft, as it generates both heat for your central heating system and hot water on demand with no delay.
As with any home improvement, one of the main considerations when you are looking to install a new boiler is cost. If you have a strict budget, a combi boiler is a great option for your new boiler. This is because its main purpose is to only produce hot water when it is needed, meaning it is very economical to run as there is no excess energy being wasted.
Unfortunately not. Back boilers are now considered to be very inefficient, and some are considered dangerous, so they’re no longer replaced by our engineers. You’ll be required to have a system upgrade to an A-Rated efficient combi boiler.
Yes, we can relocate your boiler to another location within your property for an additional fee. When we complete the survey, you will be advised of this. The new location needs to be suitable to site the boiler.
A deep clean using a tailor-made chemical that removes any rust, sludge, and debris accumulated within your central heating system to maximize its efficiency.
Before buying a new boiler, it is important to check its compatibility with your home. Normally, the design of a combi boiler means it can supply hot water to the majority of standard showers. However, it is worth noting that the water demand for a modern multi-jet shower might exceed this limit. If this is the case, a pump assisted power shower will need a tank-fed system to be fitted. We can help you get the right style of boiler to suit your home and ensure you can make the most of the benefits provided by a new combi boiler.
A thorough survey of your home carried out by one of our Gas Safe registered installers will determine which boiler output you will need in your property. Also, this will be able to tell you what size boiler is required, based on the needs of your house as well as your personal preferences.
The typical lifespan of a boiler is around 10 to 15 years, but this is an average. It is possible your boiler may not last as long as this or may in fact last longer if you take care of it well and have it regularly serviced. You may decide to replace your boiler when repairs start becoming too expensive or they start to become more frequently needed. Choosing to get a new combi boiler in Scotland at this point in time will likely save you money in the long term.
Having a service annually should help you to avoid any unforeseen issues with your boiler and ensure it keeps running at maximum efficiency.
