The work splits roughly between straight combi replacements, vented-to-sealed conversions, and system boiler upgrades in the bigger houses where hot-water demand outruns any combi. ### Who it's for Homeowners whose boiler has become unreliable or inefficient, families who've extended and found the heating no longer keeps up, and anyone near the hospital renting out a property who needs the installation and safety documentation handled together. ### Extensions and added bathrooms An extension adds heat loss and usually radiators; an added en-suite adds simultaneous hot-water demand. Both change the boiler calculation. We assess the house as it is now, including the extension, rather than assuming the original sizing still applies. ### Why local matters here Walsgrave is under ten minutes from our CV2 base. Surveys happen quickly, installations start sooner, and follow-up adjustments are a short trip rather than a fortnight's wait. What happens if it's ignored ## The cost of waiting. What tends to go wrong with boiler replacements in CV2 2 — and how we avoid it. ### Common mistakes we see - Sizing the new boiler from the old boiler's output rather than the current house - Not recalculating radiator sizing after an extension or loft conversion - Leaving redundant vented components in circuit after a conversion - Choosing a combi for a genuine two-bathroom household - Omitting the magnetic filter to save a small amount on the quote ### Extended houses on original-sized systems A rear extension with two extra radiators on a system sized for the 1960s footprint leaves the far end cold and the boiler running flat out. The fix is proper heat-loss calculation and rebalancing, not just a bigger boiler. ### Vented systems half-converted over the years Older Walsgrave semis often carry decades of piecemeal work: a newer boiler on original pipework, a cylinder left in circuit, mixed 22mm and microbore legs. New appliances expose every one of those compromises. ### Loft tanks in poorly insulated roof spaces Post-war lofts around Henley Green frequently have tanks sitting above the insulation line. In a cold snap they freeze, then thaw and flood a bedroom ceiling. A combi conversion removes the risk entirely. ### Hot-water demand in Woodway Park detached homes Family bathroom plus en-suite plus a utility means a combi will disappoint whatever its kW figure. A system boiler and unvented cylinder is the honest recommendation, and we'd rather say that at survey than after installation.

[Discuss your project](/contact) ### Recalculating after an extension A single-storey rear extension with large glazing can add 1.5–3kW of heat loss on its own, and it often sits at the end of the flow circuit where temperatures are already lowest. Correct practice is to recalculate room-by-room loss, check the existing radiators are still adequately sized for a lower flow temperature, and upsize where they are not. This is why an extended Walsgrave semi sometimes needs two new radiators rather than a larger boiler. ### Vented to sealed system conversion Converting a traditional gravity-fed system means removing the feed-and-expansion tank and cold-water storage tank, fitting an expansion vessel and pressure relief, verifying every radiator and joint can hold sealed-system pressure, and reworking the hot-water arrangement — either to a combi or to an unvented cylinder. Old joints that leaked slowly at gravity pressure will announce themselves at 1.5 bar, so we pressure-test before making good. ### Unvented cylinders in larger CV2 2 homes For a four-bedroom Woodway Park house with two bathrooms, a system boiler around 18–24kW with a 210–250 litre unvented cylinder gives mains-pressure hot water everywhere at once. It requires a G3-qualified installer, a compliant tundish and discharge route, and an annual check on the safety devices. Recovery time matters more than raw storage for a family — a well-matched boiler reheats the cylinder while the household is getting ready. ### Flow temperature, condensing and running cost A condensing boiler only condenses when the return temperature is below roughly 55°C. Many are commissioned at 75–80°C flow, which effectively disables that efficiency. Where radiators allow, we set flow temperature lower and use weather or load compensation, which typically cuts gas use by several percent for no extra hardware cost in the right setup. ### Loft tank removal and freeze prevention Post-war Walsgrave lofts often have tanks perched above the insulation. Removing them during a combi conversion eliminates the annual freeze risk, the overflow pipe and the stored-water contamination question. Where a cylinder is retained, we insulate the pipework and check the tank lid and jacket instead. ### What you receive on completion Completed benchmark checklist, Gas Safe building-regulations certificate, manufacturer warranty registration, commissioning readings including gas rate and combustion analysis, and an itemised invoice matching the quote you approved.
