Strong mix — Victorian terraces in the old centre, post-war housing in Thorley, and large new-build estates expanding north.

  • New-build combi boilers approaching first major service interval
  • Victorian terrace flue routing constraints
  • Hard water from the chalk aquifer accelerates scale build-up in heat exchangers

Our heating upgrades process, step by step

1

Pre-flush check

Radiator survey, pump and motorised valve check, and a sludge sample where possible.

2

Flush

High-flow magnetic flushing unit run through the system, radiator by radiator, until water runs clear.

3

Inhibitor & filter

Fresh corrosion inhibitor added; magnetic filter fitted to keep the system clean going forward.

4

Performance check

Heating fired up, all radiators rebalanced, and the difference measured.

Our approach to heating upgrades in Thorley

When you book us for heating upgrades in Bishop's Stortford, you get a real, named engineer turning up — not a sub-contractor.

Fixed prices in writing before any work starts. The number you agree is the number you pay.

What you get when you book us

  • Sentinel X100 inhibitor used as standard
  • MagnaCleanse and Kamco flushing equipment
  • Rebalancing included with every flush
  • Smart thermostat brand-agnostic — Hive, Nest, Tado, Honeywell, Drayton
  • BTU sizing calculations for radiator changes

Frequently asked questions — heating upgrades, Thorley

Why don't you publish fixed prices online?

Because every job is different. The "from £1,499" you see on national sites almost never includes flue, system flush, controls, or any pipework changes — the bits that always come up.

Will a smart thermostat actually save money?

Yes — typically 8–12% off heating bills if you use the scheduling and zone features properly. Hive and Nest both pay back inside two years for most households.

How much does a power flush cost?

Typically £450–£750 depending on system size and number of radiators. We give a fixed price after a quick survey.
