FAQs
In efficiency terms, heat pumps are generally the most efficient heating system available for UK homes. Modern heat pumps can deliver several units of heat for every unit of electricity used, which is why they are often described as being far more efficient than direct electric heating and more efficient overall than a modern gas boiler. That said, the best option depends on the property. A well-insulated home with suitable emitters and a correctly designed system is usually the best fit for a heat pump. For some properties, a modern condensing gas boiler may still be the more practical short-term choice, especially where upfront budget or fabric limitations are the deciding factors.
In many cases, yes. Central heating can improve comfort, provide more even temperatures across the home and add to buyer appeal. It is often worthwhile if the property currently relies on expensive room-by-room electric heating, outdated heaters or a poor-performing system. The decision comes down to installation cost, the size and layout of the property, fuel availability and what type of central heating you choose. If you are already planning wider upgrades such as insulation or a hot water system replacement, installing central heating at the same time can offer better long-term value.
Typical lifespans vary by system, installation quality and maintenance. As a general guide, gas boilers often last around 10 to 15 years, oil boilers around 15 years, electric boilers around 10 to 15 years, air source heat pumps around 15 to 20 years, ground source heat pumps can last 20 years or more for the heat pump unit and longer for ground loops, and radiators and pipework can last significantly longer if the system water quality is properly maintained. Good servicing and correct system treatment can make a major difference to lifespan.
