Gloucestershire homeowners could save up to £490 a year on heating bills by upgrading older G-rated boilers to a modern, A-rated model, according to the Energy Saving Trust.
With research from price comparison website Uswitch suggesting gas bills were much higher in the UK in 2024 than they have been for several years, homeowners across the UK are thinking about ways to reduce their heating costs in 2025.
And with government regulator Ofgem recently announcing the energy price cap will increase by 6.4 per cent from April 2025, costing the average household £111 a year, or £9.25 a month extra, reducing costs is likely become an even bigger priority over the coming months — with upgrading your boiler being one of the most effective actions to take.
The UK's leading boiler brand, Worcester Bosch, manufactures a range of state-of-the-art, A-rated boilers which can save you money on heating, whatever your requirements, with its network of accredited installers helping customers identify the right products for them.
The Energy Saving Trust says that for a detached property in Great Britain, bill payers could save £490 a year by switching from a G-rated to an A-rated boiler, with savings to be made for other property types, too — with up to £320 for a semi-detached house; £290 for a bungalow; £270 for a mid-terrace house; and £120 for a mid-floor flat.
With a new boiler costing an average of £3,700 in Great Britain, homeowners could recoup that amount in savings within seven years, before putting almost £500 every year back into your household budget — and adding value to your home if you're looking to sell, by improving your Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating.
Worcester Bosch supplies a wide range of gas, oil and liquid petroleum gas (LPG) boilers, suited to different property types and locations, with its combi boilers perfect for smaller properties; system boilers that are ideal for homes with more than one bathroom; and regular boilers, perfect for homes where a lot of hot water is used at the same time.
All of its products are also compatible with its EasyControl smart thermostat, allowing users to keep on top of their heating controls through innovations like touch screen display and a mobile app.
