Safety and accessibility considerations for a new boiler installation
As you’ll be all too aware, there’s more to your work than simply putting a new boiler in a space. There are other factors to keep in mind, particularly when it comes to accessibility for maintenance and safety.
Easy access to the boiler is important for carrying put servicing and maintenance, or a simple top up. Having enough space to accommodate specific components of the boiler system, like the magnetic filter for example, is another key factor.
Flues cannot be obstructed and need to be a sufficient distance from windows and doors. At Baxi, our top central flue allows for flexibility when it comes to siting the boiler and lets combustion gases escape through the roof of the property.
Explaining all of this to your customer and educating them on the need for safety and practicality when deciding where their boiler will go is fundamental for carrying out safe installations.
Outlining the different boiler types
Homeowners will likely be familiar with a combi boiler, but what about the other types: heat only, electric, and system boilers?
Taking into account everything from the homeowner's average heating and hot water usage, available space, and whether they would benefit from instantaneous hot water or stored in a hot water cylinder, will enable you to deliver the right solution for their exact requirements, remember, you are the expert and they are relying on you for the correct advice.
