(A Local Guide from Prescot Plumbing & Heating)

When your boiler starts failing, many homeowners and local tradespeople automatically jump to full replacement packages. But what a lot of people don’t realise is this:

You don’t always need an installer to supply the boiler. You can buy the unit separately — often saving hundreds of pounds.

That’s where Prescot Plumbing & Heating comes in. As one of the leading supply-only plumbing and heating merchants serving Prescot, St Helens, Liverpool, Knowsley, Merseyside, and the wider North West, we provide high-quality boiler units directly to both public and trade customers — without installation services attached.

If you’re looking to buy a boiler supply-only, here’s exactly what you need to consider.

🔧 1. Make Sure You Choose the Correct Boiler Type

Not all boilers are the same. Before buying a replacement unit, you’ll need to match the type you already have — unless your installer has confirmed you can upgrade.

The three most common options include:

✓ Combi Boiler

• Ideal for smaller homes
• No hot water tank required
• Energy-efficient and compact

✓ System Boiler

• Works with a hot water cylinder
• Great for homes with higher hot water demands

✓ Regular (Conventional) Boiler

• Requires both a tank and a cylinder
• Common in older properties

At Prescot Plumbing & Heating, we stock a wide range of combi, system and regular boilers from trusted UK brands. Our team can help you choose the right type based on your home or your customer’s heating setup.

🔥 2. Look for an A-rated, Energy-Efficient Model

A boiler is only as good as the savings it delivers.

Choosing an A-rated, energy-efficient boiler will help:

• Reduce heating bills
• Improve overall system performance
• Lower carbon emissions
• Ensure compliance with modern standards

We supply energy-efficient boilers that meet the latest UK regulations, helping local homeowners upgrade their heating system without overspending.

💷 3. Compare Prices Without Installation Packages

Many national companies roll the boiler cost, installation cost, extras, and warranties into one large price — which can make it hard to know what you’re really paying for.

When you buy the boiler supply-only, you get:

• Full transparency on boiler price
• Freedom to hire your own installer
• The option to get multiple fitting quotes
• Access to better deals from local suppliers like us

At Prescot Plumbing & Heating, we keep prices competitive for public and trade customers, giving you the flexibility to shop around for installation separately.

🛠 4. Check Warranty Options

Even when you purchase the boiler separately, you should still benefit from a manufacturer's warranty.

Most brands offer:

• 5-year warranties
• 7-year warranties
• 10-12 year extended warranties (depending on model)

We help customers understand which boilers come with the strongest warranty options so you get long-term peace of mind.

🔍 5. Availability of Parts and Aftercare Products

When buying a boiler supply-only, it’s smart to check that:

• Replacement parts are easy to find
• Filters, chemicals, and inhibitors are available
• The system can be maintained easily after installation

Prescot Plumbing & Heating stocks everything required for ongoing care, including:

• Magnetic filters
• System cleaners
• Inhibitors
• Chemical flush products
• Replacement valves and fittings

This makes us a one-stop shop for boiler units and all maintenance essentials.
