What to Expect During Your Boiler Survey with WeFit Boilers

Are you considering a boiler replacement or installation in your new home? A boiler survey is a crucial step in the process. It helps you find the right boiler and ensures everything is set for a smooth installation.

In this post, we will explain what to expect during your free survey with WeFit Boilers. You will gain insights that prepare you for each stage of the process and help you make informed decisions.

1. A Quick Initial Call

Once you book your survey appointment, expect a quick call from us to confirm the details. During this call, we will ask a few straightforward questions about your property and the current heating setup.

This initial conversation is vital. It allows our engineer to arrive prepared with the right tools and knowledge based on your specific situation. For example, knowing the age of your current boiler or any previous issues helps us tailor our visit.

2. Home Visit from a Gas Safe Engineer

On the day of your appointment, a qualified Gas Safe engineer will arrive at your home as scheduled.

Typically, this visit lasts around 30 to 60 minutes. The engineer will evaluate your home's heating system, paying close attention to your current boiler setup. All of our WeFit customers reported a better understanding of their heating systems after this visit, showcasing its value.

3. Assessment of Your Current System

During the survey, the engineer will inspect your existing boiler, pipes, radiators, and controls.

They will assess key factors such as water pressure and flue positioning. For example, a water pressure below 1 bar might indicate that you need a different type of boiler. This assessment is essential to understand the pros and cons of what you currently have. It sets the foundation for the best boiler recommendations.

4. Discussing Your Needs

Once the assessment is complete, our engineer will discuss your hot water needs, the number of bathrooms, and any future changes you anticipate, like home extensions.

This conversation is vital for ensuring we recommend a boiler tailored to your household. For instance, a family with two bathrooms may require a high-capacity combi boiler or system boiler to meet their hot water demands effectively.

5. Tailored Recommendations

Based on the survey results and your specific requirements, we will provide personalised recommendations for boiler models that suit your property.

In addition to your new boiler, our engineer may suggest useful upgrades like smart thermostats, which can improve energy efficiency by up to 30%. Such enhancements not only save you money on energy bills but also contribute to reducing your carbon footprint.
