The good news is it shouldn’t need to be done too often. Please contact us for a quote.

Our upfront call out fee covers the call out and up to the first hours labour and / or diagnostics of the problem, to which we will need to quote, order parts and return another day to suit you.
Within the call out fee you are paying for, is our many years of experience and qualifications to troubleshoot the plumbing or heating issue in your home quickly and efficiently.
Combi is short for “combination”. It refers to the way this type of system serves as both a central heating boiler and a hot water heater. That means there is no need for a water tank, as hot water is provided on demand. As well as saving the space normally taken up by a water tank (in the loft or airing cupboard), a combi boiler saves on hot water costs as well as giving you hot water at mains pressure.
This typically forms part of a conventional heating system and is linked to a series of water tanks that feed the boiler and radiators. Storing hot water is key to this system, so unlike a combi, a plentiful supply of hot water is always available. Space in the loft and airing cupboard is required for tanks.
Like a regular system, this uses stored hot water. As the water is pumped from the boiler straight to the radiators and hot water tank, it is a faster, more economical system. What’s more, many of the components of the system are built in, making it easier, quicker and more affordable to install.
Solar thermal water heating panels convert the energy from the sun into heat to produce hot water for the home. Modern solar panel systems can provide up to 70% of the hot water requirement for your home, providing the system has been well sized. The panels complement existing heating systems that use a regular or system condensing boiler.
Here are a few signs that your radiator might need bleeding:-
Still not sure? It’s worth bleeding your radiator anyway! If you hear a hissing sound, that’s the trapped air escaping. Once the hissing stops, you’ll know the air is gone, and your radiator is all set.
Bleeding a radiator isn’t as complicated as it seems and can be done at home as you have the right tools and follow this handy guide! By following these steps, you can make sure your radiators are working efficiently and keeping your home warm.
Tools you’ll need:-
We do recommend the use of suitable water treatment in the form of an inhibitor to the heating water system, in accordance with the water treatment manufacturer’s instructions. The concentration level of the water inhibitor should be checked every 12 months or sooner if system content is lost.
A heat pump works on similar principles to the way a domestic fridge works.
A water and glycol mixture is pumped around the collector circuit and causes the refrigerant in the evaporator to turn to gas. This refrigerant passes through the compressor, causing the temperature to rise significantly.
The hot gas moves to the condenser where it condenses and the latent energy is released into the heating circuit.
