Gas heating installations
If a boiler is more than
10 years old the likelihood is
that it won’t be operating at
peak efficiency.
From straightforward boiler swaps to installation
of full energy efficient central heating systems,
we have years of expertise in installing
high quality gas boilers. Our Gas Safe registered
engineers currently install thousands of energyefficient
central heating systems every year for our
social housing clients, keeping their tenants warm
whilst also helping to reduce their energy bills.
A new A-rated energy efficient boiler could
save your tenants up to £310 a year on their
heating bills.
Fuel switching
We’re also experts in fuel switching, helping your
tenants move from expensive and inefficient solid fuel
or electric heating to gas central heating. This includes
helping to facilitate the connection of your properties
to the gas network where a pipeline is available.
Replacing an old, inefficient system could reduce
your tenants’ energy bills. For an average 3 bed
semi-detached house, fuel switching to a gas heating
system could be about £300 cheaper to run than
coal or electric each year.
In addition through the obligation on the RWE
npower groups supply business to offer funding we
may also be able to offer part or fully funded fuel
switching for your properties to help ease the cost
of installation.
Case Study - Gas Heating Installations,
Castle Vale Community Housing Association
In 2012, npower won a 5 year contract to work with
Castle Vale Community Housing Association to cover
the installation of new Boilers and Heating Controls to
their full portfolio of properties.
We were selected because of our partnership approach
to this contract integrating energy advice and support
services alongside the installation work and in addition
to the gas installs we are also working in partnership
with CVCHA to help change tenant behaviour with
regards to energy efficiency.
The right products for the job
Where we replace an old inefficient boiler with a
new A-rated condensing boiler the tenant can also
save money on their heating bills. According to the
Energy Saving Trust, boilers account for around 55%
of what homes spend in a year on heating bills, so
an efficient boiler makes a significant difference with
A-rated boilers saving up to £310 on heating bills a year
compared to homes with a less efficient G-rated boiler.

Gas heating system £300 cheaper to run than coal or electric based on a report by Sutherland Tables, October 2009 which provide statistics on the relative cost of using different domestic fuels. £300 saving based on a 3 bed semi in
the Northern area of England, switching from either electric with Economy 7 tariff to gas saves £316, switching from coal to gas saves £342.
