How much does a boiler installation cost in Luton?
On average, a premium boiler installation will set you back £2,196 in Luton. This includes both the supply and installation of the boiler.
The majority of properties in Luton are connected to the mains gas grid. However, there are a significant number of properties around Guildford Street and Stuart Street in the town centre which aren’t connected to it.
Also if you venture a little further out into the villages covered by Central Bedfordshire Council and North Hertfordshire District Council, you will also find properties that aren’t connected to the mains gas grid.
If you live in a property in Luton which isn’t suitable for a gas boiler installation then an oil boiler is often a more suitable option. The average cost of a premium oil boiler installation in Luton is £4,978.
Is Luton a hard water area?
Yes, Luton is a hard water area. This means that Luton, along with 60% of the UK, is supplied with water that contains higher levels of calcium carbonate. However, the 2020 UK Hard Water Index found that Luton has some of the hardest water in the UK with 309mg of calcium carbonate per litre. This is due to the town’s position next to areas of limestone and chalky rock such as oolitic limestone and cornbrash which are found across Bedfordshire.
Luton’s water, which is supplied by Affinity Water, isn’t a problem for a boiler installation though. To remedy this we will install an inexpensive hard water filter at the same time as installing your boiler. This filter will work to remove the limescale that forms when calcium carbonate in the water is heated and left to stand. To resolve any existing limescale issues in your heating system, we will also undertake a full chemical flush
