Why Choose Gas Boilers?
Gas boilers remain one of the most popular and cost-effective heating solutions for homes across Cornwall:
Cost Effective
Natural gas is typically cheaper than electricity, oil, or LPG, making gas boilers an economical choice for heating your home and providing hot water.
Reliable Supply
Mains gas provides a constant, reliable fuel supply – no need to worry about running out of fuel or arranging deliveries like with oil systems.
Instant Heat
Gas boilers provide instant heat and hot water on demand. No waiting for the system to warm up – comfort when you need it.
Compact Design
Modern gas boilers are compact and can be wall-mounted, saving valuable floor space in your home.
Environmentally Friendly
Gas burns cleaner than oil and produces lower carbon emissions, making it a more environmentally conscious choice.
Types of Gas Boilers We Install
Combi Boilers
Perfect for smaller homes, combination boilers provide both central heating and hot water from a single compact unit. No separate hot water cylinder required.
System Boilers
Ideal for larger properties with multiple bathrooms. These work with a hot water cylinder to provide high water pressure to multiple outlets simultaneously.
Conventional Boilers
Also known as regular or heat-only boilers, these are perfect for properties with existing cylinder and tank systems or period homes where space isn't at a premium.
