The domestic plumbers at Warmer Brothers Plumbing & Heating offer a complete central heating servicing facility to clients in Tunbridge Wells, Tonbridge and the surrounding areas. Our plumbing work also includes:
Our central heating systems provide warmth and hot water at the touch of a button, offering a modern service which operates via radiators and pipes which are connected to a boiler and pump. The boiler produces heated water, which the pump pushes through the radiators and back to the boiler, where it gets reheated again. The hot water is also accessible via the hot taps in our kitchens and bathrooms. It sounds simple, doesn’t it? And when properly maintained, the boiler will last a considerable amount of time. For the benefit of our customers in Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells, our plumbers explain how central heating systems work so you can improve your understanding of them.
There are two boiler types available – conventional and combi (combination).
Conventional boilers are comprised of a pump, timer and thermostat. Hot water and heating services are controlled separately, with the water usually stored in a tank in the airing cupboard.
Combi boilers are more modern and don’t require a tank as they heat water on demand. They also have a timer and thermostat, however, both of which are used to control the central heating.
By using a timer to control when you want your heating system to kick in, you’re saving a lot of money and energy. Having the boiler and central heating running continuously could cause them to break down, and this may leave you with expensive repair bills. Our plumbers offer complete boiler and central heating servicing to ensure your systems work at peak efficiency throughout the year.
Regular maintenance of these essential systems will guarantee your comfort whilst helping you avoid costly central heating repairs.
Older properties may have thermostats fitted in the hallway or living room, whereas modern central heating systems have remote devices that can be placed around the house. They sense the temperature in the room, stopping the central heating when a predetermined temperature is reached. They will send another signal to the boiler when the area in question dips below a certain level so the central heating can restart again.
Most households set their thermostats between 18° and 21° but, did you know, you can save significantly on your heating bills if you lower the temperature by just one degree?
Our team at Warmer Brothers Plumbing & Heating can also fit thermostatic valves to the radiators at your Tunbridge Wells or Tonbridge property, allowing you to control the temperature in each room. Leaving the dial at a lower number in rooms you don’t use so often will also save on energy bills.
