Your Guide to LPG Boilers

When it comes to heating your business efficiently, LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) boilers are becoming an continued popular choice in Norfolk - especially for locations that aren’t connected to the mains gas network or converting from oil based systems. Whether you’re looking to install a new LPG boiler, replace an old one, or simply keep yours running smoothly, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know.

What Is an LPG Boiler?

An LPG boiler works just like a standard gas boiler, but instead of being connected to the mains gas supply, it runs on bottled or bulk-stored liquefied petroleum gas. This makes LPG boilers a great choice for rural commercial properties where the gas supply is limited.

How Does an LPG Boiler Work?

  • LPG Storage: LPG is stored in a tank or cylinders outside your business.

  • Fuel Supply: The gas is piped into the boiler when needed.

  • Heating Process: The boiler burns the gas to heat water, which is then circulated through your radiators and taps.

  • Efficiency: Modern LPG boilers are extremely efficient, often reaching up to 90% efficiency, meaning lower energy bills and less waste!

The Benefits of an LPG Boiler

So why should you choose an LPG boiler over oil or electric heating?

  • Efficient Heating: LPG boilers are more efficient than oil boilers and some electric systems, which can save you money on energy bills.

  • Lower Carbon Emissions: LPG produces fewer carbon emissions than oil, making it a greener, more eco-friendly option – helping us meet net-zero by 2025!

  • Compact and Quiet: LPG boilers are smaller and quieter than oil boilers, which is perfect if you’re tight on space or want to keep noise to a minimum.

  • Reliable Supply: Unlike electric heating, which can be affected by power cuts, an LPG boiler will keep running as long as you have fuel stored.

Is an LPG Boiler Right for You?

LPG boilers are an excellent choice for many UK businesses, but here are a few things to keep in mind:

  • Do You Have Space for a Storage Tank? If you go for bulk LPG, you’ll need an outdoor storage tank. Alternatively, cylinders are a smaller option.

  • Fuel Deliveries: Unlike mains gas, you’ll need to arrange for LPG refills. But don’t worry - automatic top-up services make this hassle-free! We can assist you with a reliable LPG supplier to take this pain away.

  • Initial Costs: LPG boilers can cost a little more to install than natural gas boilers, but they can often be cheaper to run in the long run and therefore a most cost-effective way to heat your business

Installing an LPG Boiler

If you’re thinking about installing an LPG boiler, it’s important to work with an expert heating engineer who understands LPG systems. Here’s what to expect during installation:

  • Survey and Quotation: Our heating specialists will assess your home and recommend the best boiler size and model for your needs.

  • Tank or Cylinder Setup: If you don’t already have an LPG storage system, we’ll take care of setting it up before installation.

  • Boiler Installation: Your new boiler is installed, connected to your radiators and hot water system and fully tested.

  • Ongoing Maintenance: To keep your LPG boiler running smoothly and efficiently, we recommend annual servicing to make sure everything is in top shape. How about speaking with us about a service plan so you know you are covered reliably for any servicing and maintenance.
