Frequently asked questions

The cost of a new boiler installation depends on the type of system, your home and the complexity of the work. For example if you have an existing combi boiler and looking for a new boiler replacement and it’s a like for like swap then the cost will be on the lower end.

If you require a conversion i.e. a system boiler to a combi, more work is involved in swapping the boiler so it will cost more. The best option is to fill out our boiler quote form to give you a more accurate cost as it’s based on your individual home & heating needs.

At John Wilkinson Heating Services, we offer competitive pricing and provide free, no obligation boiler quotes tailored to your property. Flexible boiler finance options are also available.

If your boiler is over 10-15 years old, becoming unreliable or inefficient, it may be time to upgrade. A new A rated boiler can help improve performance and reduce energy bills.

Most new boiler installations can be completed efficiently in 1 day, depending on the system and whether any upgrades are required. Like for like combi to combi boiler swaps normally take a day, conversions are a little longer and normally require 2 days but we can advise on how long it will take.

An air source heat pump is an energy efficient heating system that extracts heat from the outside air and uses it to warm your home and hot water. Even in colder temperatures, it can efficiently transfer heat indoors, making it a reliable and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional gas boilers.

Yes, air source heat pumps can be a worthwhile investment for many UK homes, especially if you’re looking to reduce energy bills and lower your carbon footprint. They are highly energy efficient, often producing more heat energy than the electricity they use, which can lead to long term savings. While the upfront installation cost is typically higher than a traditional gas boiler, the Government’s Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers a grant of up to £7,500, significantly reducing the overall cost. This makes air source heat pumps far more affordable for homeowners.

The cost of installing solar panels varies depending on the size of the system, your roof type, and your household’s energy usage. On average, a typical UK home can expect to pay between £5,000 and £9,000 for a standard solar panel system.

Solar panels generate electricity by converting sunlight into usable energy using photovoltaic (PV) cells. When daylight hits the panels, it creates an electrical current which can be used to power your home, reducing your reliance on grid electricity and lowering your energy bills. Any excess energy can either be stored in a battery for later use or exported back to the grid, depending on your system setup. 

Yes, solar panels can significantly reduce your electricity bills by generating your own renewable energy and reducing your reliance on the grid. The amount you save will depend on your system size, energy usage, and how much electricity you use during the day.

The cost of air conditioning installation depends on the size of your property and the system required. We provide tailored quotes to suit your home and cooling needs.

Yes, many modern air conditioning systems can provide both heating and cooling, making them a versatile solution for year round comfort.
