FAQs

Question 1

How long does it take to install a new central heating system?

Accepted Answer

The most straightforward installation is swapping the system out for the same type and this usually takes four to six hours. If you want to change the position of your system or install a new one, you could look at one to two days, but it could take longer if the move or installation is substantial.

Question 2

Can central heating reduce humidity?

Accepted Answer

A dry, warm home is a healthy environment. Central heating installed in an old house can eliminate condensation problems by up to 80%. There is also no forced airflow, which is excellent for people with allergies or respiratory problems.

Question 3

How often should a central heating system be serviced?

Accepted Answer

It is recommended to maintain your central heating system once a year to maintain optimal performance. Features included with a service are checking the general operation of the heat source, cleaning the heat exchanger, combustion chamber etc, and inspecting the filters.

Question 4

How long do central heating thermostats last?

Accepted Answer

Generally around 10 years but depending on the model, type and make it can last shorter or longer than this. Not everything lasts forever; over time, thermostats also age because of wear and tear, wiring issues, dust accumulation and rust. To ensure you get the longest lifespan from your thermostats, make sure to conduct annual maintenance.
