Free Boiler Replacement Scheme
|
|
Beware of the free boiler
replacement scheme; there are some very poor
installations to be found, in my opinion as a result of
the low pay the engineer receives and the quality of
workmanship that is reflected. I am not saying this is
always the case but as the pictures show some remarkable
faults in this installation, note the pipe clip screwed
to the side of the boiler, also the filter should be on
the return pipework, not the flow. we at Coventry
Heating had to make good this boiler because the company
that did the install said, and I quote
|
|
|
|
"well you got a two thousand
pound boiler for free, you should be happy" The
householder that is an elderly lady was heart-broken at
that response. I am challenging this company to
compensate the lady involved to recover our costs for
rectification. Coventry heating can supply and fit
boilers to a professional standard for as
little as £1,100.

Thermostatic Radiator Valves
|
|
Due to soaring energy prices it
has never been more important to fit TRV's to your
radiators. A typical 600 x 1200 radiator is
approximately 1kw (equivelent to a 25 x 40w light bulbs
in energy consumption)
TRV's are used to control the heat output of radiators
allowing room temperature to be controlled individually.
TRV's can save energy being wasted in unused rooms,
therefore significantly reducing heating bills.
Coventry heating can supply and fit TRV's for as little
as £35.00 per radiator (based on 7 radiators).

Room Thermostats
|
|
Again, as a result of rising
energy costs, the emphasis must be on energy
conservation. A room thermostat can significantly reduce
fuel bills primarily because it maintains a room
temperature. If you running a central heating system
without a room thermostat using your boiler output as a
control you are simply maintaining water temperature,
not room temperature. Running a central heating system
without using a room thermostat, your boiler is
constantly running, using energy and quite literally
burning your money. A room thermostat will control the
boiler, turning it off when the desired room temperature
is achieved.
Coventry Heating can supply and
fit wireless room thermostats from as little as
£95.00

TF1 Filter
|
|
Coventry Heating highly
recommend installing a filter to your central heating
system. These filters contain a highly efficient magnet
that captures and retains metallic debris that
ordinarily exists in the system due to constant
corrosion, this debris normally builds up in radiators
reducing their efficiency, also these deposits cause
harm to diverter valves and heat exchangers in boilers
(the biggest cause of boiler breakdown) resulting in
costly repairs. Filters add credibility to any boiler
warranties, showing the manufacturer that every effort
has been taken to keep the system in good working order.
These filters are easily cleaned by you, the home owner
reducing the maintenance costs. Also TF1 filters are a
convenient point for adding inhibitor chemicals to the
system.
Coventry Heating can supply and fit TF1 filters from as
little as £180.00
