New boilers in Brooklyn can be expensive and so it is important you choose the correct type to suit your needs. As well as being a competitive price, your new boiler will need to meet a number of other criteria. That is to say:
• All new boilers have to have an efficiency rating of either A or B,. this is from the SEDBUK rating system. Those with an A rating can cost more, but they will save money on your energy bills. In essence the A rated boilers are the best in terms of efficiency and fuel consumption. Boilers of a lower rating will cost more to run and be less environmentally good. To put this into perspective an old D rated boiler could potentially be less than 50% efficient!……Yes that’s right you could be throwing away over half of the money you spend on your gas bill.
• Get a boiler that’s easy to install in your situation. Choosing a boiler that has to go in a different position or in a different room to your current boiler can cause problems, especially with regards to the flue arrangements. Easy to install boilers are often easy to maintain and service as well which means less problems during its annual service. There are a large range of rules and regulations that govern the positioning of gas boilers. This means extreme caution needs to be taken before attempting to move a boiler to a new position. More often than not it is much more cost effective to replace a boiler, leaving it in the same position (as long as the condensate route is OK, see below).
