Looking for a new boiler? Here’s how to get it right the first time.
Choosing a boiler might not be something you think about often—but when your old one starts making strange noises, your heating’s not working properly, or your energy bills suddenly shoot up, it quickly becomes a big deal. So how do you make sure you get the right boiler for your home?
If you’re based in Hull or anywhere in East Yorkshire, this guide will help you understand the key things to consider—and how Ox Heating, your local Ideal Boiler specialists, can make the process quick, stress-free, and reliable.
Why does choosing the right boiler matter?
The right boiler will keep your home warm, your water hot, and your energy bills under control. Get it wrong, and you could face all sorts of issues—poor performance, frequent repairs, or even a full replacement sooner than expected.
Have you noticed your current boiler isn’t working as well as it used to? Are your radiators cold, or is your shower not heating up properly? These could be signs that it’s time for a new boiler—and choosing the right one could save you time, money, and a lot of hassle in the long run.
What type of boiler do you need?
There are three main types of boiler:
Combi Boilers – These heat your home and water directly from the boiler, with no need for a water tank. Perfect for smaller homes or if you’re tight on space.
System Boilers – Great for larger homes with more than one bathroom. They need a hot water cylinder but no cold water tank.
Regular Boilers (also called Conventional or Heat-Only Boilers) – Ideal for older homes that already have a traditional heating system with separate tanks.
Not sure which one’s right for you? Think about how many people live in your home, how often you use hot water, and whether you have space for a tank or cylinder. Or, better yet, ask Ox Heating—they’ll help you find the best fit.
Getting the size right
Boiler size doesn’t mean how big it looks—it means how powerful it is. If you get a boiler that’s too small, it won’t be able to heat your home properly. Too big, and you’ll waste energy and money.
Ox Heating can help you work out the right size boiler based on your property, the number of radiators, and how much hot water you use. Their friendly team will guide you through it, so you don’t have to guess or stress.
Energy efficiency matters
Older boilers can be costly to run. Newer models—especially from trusted brands like Ideal Boilers—are much more energy-efficient. That means lower gas bills and a smaller impact on the planet.
When you choose a modern Ideal boiler with Ox Heating, you get peace of mind knowing your boiler is built to last, easy to use, and designed to save you money every month.
