Types of Boilers for Dartford Homes

Choosing the right type of boiler for your Dartford property depends on several factors including your property size, number of bathrooms, hot water usage patterns, and available space. At Hixa Heating, we install all types of boilers and can recommend the perfect solution for your specific needs.

Combi Boilers for Dartford Properties:

Combi boilers are the most popular choice for homes in Dartford, particularly for small to medium-sized properties, flats, and apartments. They provide instant hot water on demand without the need for a separate hot water cylinder or cold water tank, making them ideal for properties with limited space. Most 2-4 bedroom homes in Dartford are perfectly suited to a combi boiler.

Best for: Flats, terraced houses, semi-detached homes with 1-2 bathrooms, properties with good mains water pressure, and homes where space is at a premium.

System Boilers for Larger Dartford Homes:

System boilers work with a hot water cylinder to store hot water, making them ideal for larger Dartford properties with multiple bathrooms or high simultaneous hot water demand. They're perfect for family homes where several people might need to shower at the same time, or for properties with poor mains water pressure where a combi boiler wouldn't perform well.

Best for: Detached houses, larger family homes with 3+ bathrooms, properties with high hot water usage, homes with poor mains pressure, and properties with multiple showers or baths.

Regular Boilers (Conventional):

Regular boilers, also known as conventional or heat-only boilers, are typically found in older Dartford properties. They require both a hot water cylinder and a cold water tank in the loft. While less common in new installations, they're sometimes the best choice for replacing an existing regular boiler in a property with a traditional heating system.

During our free home survey, we'll assess your property and recommend the most suitable boiler type based on your specific requirements, budget, and long-term heating needs.

Annual Boiler Servicing for Dartford Residents

Regular boiler servicing is one of the most important things you can do to keep your heating system running efficiently, safely, and reliably. For Dartford homeowners and landlords, our comprehensive annual boiler service provides peace of mind and helps prevent costly breakdowns.

Why Annual Servicing Matters:

An annual boiler service is essential for several reasons. First, it's required to maintain your manufacturer warranty—most boiler warranties become invalid if you don't have your boiler serviced annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Second, regular servicing improves safety by identifying potential carbon monoxide risks and gas leaks before they become dangerous. Third, it prevents breakdowns by catching minor issues before they develop into major failures. Fourth, it maintains efficiency, potentially saving you £50-£100 per year on gas bills. Finally, it extends your boiler's lifespan, protecting your investment.

Our Comprehensive Boiler Service - From £80:

When you book an annual boiler service with Hixa Heating, our Gas Safe registered engineers perform a thorough inspection and testing of your heating system, including:

• Visual inspection of boiler and heating system components
• Flue gas analysis to check combustion efficiency and safety
• Testing of all safety devices and controls
• Cleaning of burner and heat exchanger where accessible
• Checking pressure, flow rates, and expansion vessel
• Inspection for leaks, corrosion, or wear
• Carbon monoxide testing for your safety
• Updating you on any advisory issues or recommendations
• Issuing service certificate for your warranty records

We recommend booking your annual service in late summer or early autumn, before the heating season begins. This ensures your boiler is in peak condition when you need it most during winter. We can send you annual reminder emails so you never forget your service date.

Landlord Services in Dartford

If you're a landlord with rental properties in Dartford, you have legal obligations when it comes to gas safety. At Hixa Heating, we provide comprehensive landlord services to help you stay compliant, keep your tenants safe and warm, and manage your property portfolio efficiently.

Landlord Gas Safety Certificates (CP12):

By law, landlords must have all gas appliances and flues safety checked every 12 months by a Gas Safe registered engineer. We provide CP12 gas safety certificates from £80, with same-day certificate issue and email delivery. We can manage multiple properties, send reminder emails before certificates expire, maintain records of all your properties, and provide competitive rates for landlords with multiple properties.

Boiler Installation for Rental Properties:

When installing boilers in rental properties, landlords need reliable, efficient systems that will provide years of trouble-free service. We recommend brands known for reliability and readily available spare parts, such as Worcester Bosch, which reduces the risk of lengthy tenant complaints about heating failures. Our installations include extended warranties up to 12 years, protecting your investment.

Maintenance and Repairs:

We provide priority callout services for landlords when tenants report heating issues. Fast response times mean happier tenants and compliance with your duty of care obligations. We understand that rental properties need cost-effective solutions, and we'll always provide honest advice about whether to repair or replace aging boilers.

Landlord gas safety is taken seriously by the authorities. Failure to comply with gas safety regulations can result in fines up to £6,000, imprisonment for up to six months, or both. More importantly, it puts your tenants' lives at risk. We help you stay compliant with annual safety checks, proper documentation and record keeping, emergency repair response, and tenant safety advice.

Many Dartford landlords trust Hixa Heating to manage their property heating compliance year after year. We make it simple, affordable, and hassle-free.

Energy Efficiency for Dartford Properties

With rising energy costs, improving your home's heating efficiency has never been more important for Dartford homeowners. At Hixa Heating, we can help you reduce your gas bills and carbon footprint through efficient boiler installation, system upgrades, and expert advice.

Benefits of a Modern Efficient Boiler:

If your boiler is more than 10-15 years old, upgrading to a modern A-rated boiler could save you significant money on your annual heating bills. Old boilers can be as low as 60-70% efficient, meaning 30-40p of every pound spent on gas is wasted. Modern boilers achieve 92-94% efficiency, with only 6-8p wasted. For a typical Dartford home, this could mean savings of £300-£400 per year—£3,000-£4,000 over ten years.

Additional Energy-Saving Measures:

• Smart Controls: Programmable and smart thermostats can reduce energy use by 8-15% by optimizing heating schedules
• Thermostatic Radiator Valves (TRVs): Control temperature room-by-room, avoiding heating unused spaces
• Magnetic Filters: Improve system efficiency and protect your boiler from sludge damage
• Power Flushing: Remove sludge and debris to improve circulation and efficiency
• System Balancing: Ensure all radiators heat evenly and efficiently
• Radiator Upgrades: Modern efficient radiators heat rooms faster with less energy

Energy Performance Certificates (EPC):

A new efficient boiler can significantly improve your property's EPC rating, which is important if you're selling or letting your Dartford property. Properties with higher EPC ratings are more attractive to buyers and tenants, and may command higher prices or rents.

During our free home survey, we'll assess your current system's efficiency and provide recommendations for improvements that will deliver the best return on investment through reduced energy bills. We focus on practical, cost-effective upgrades that make sense for Dartford homeowners.
