How much to change an old boiler over to a Combi one?

[RJnomore1]

Has anyone does this recently?

Four bed house, existing boiler is about 20 years old, want to put a Combi in before we start any refurb.

I’ve budgeted 3k but I’m panicking I’m way off now?

We just had ours replaced with a 40kw Combi that has a 10yr guarantee for £2300 all in.

Yes £3k should be fine, it might depend on how much new pipework etc you need though as that's fiddly. We had ours done and I miss the airing cupboard but our gas bills are lower.

Oh phew for some reason I started thinking it might be twice that. Thank you.

Ours is a decent Worcester combi for 4 bed house, cost £2300 as well a few months ago

We were quoted £4000 by B gas though

My friend said hers was £5k from British Gas but they did interest free instalments. I think they’re a lot more than local companies.

We've just replaced our very very old Potterton LPG boiler for a Worcester combi - it was around £3.5k but that included getting rid of the cold water header tank and immersion, plus it's an LPG one.

Sorry for being dim butvwhats LPG?

We're rural and not on mains gas, so we have to bulk buy LPG and keep it in a 1200 litre tank in the garden.

Makes everything to do with heating a ton more expensive basically!

If you're on mains gas the boiler will be at least £800 cheaper.

LPG is liquified petroleum gas for those not connected to the mains.

Ah thank you. Yes it’s mains gas.
