When it comes to Listique’s recommended boiler engineers, skilled workmanship goes hand-in-hand with social responsibility. Aware that our clients are eco-chic, environmentally friendly individuals and conscious that luxury does not waste resources, we only list those companies whose ranges include high-end boilers such as Viessmann. Luxury has gone green for one simple reason: quality. With this in mind, Listique has drawn up a list of boiler engineers who already boast an enviable word-of-mouth reputation.
Listique-listed boiler engineers: the lowdown
As a luxury directory that finds the very best of London’s businesses, artisans and services, it can only be expected we would have our fingers on the pulse of the capital’s most respected boiler engineers. Whether our clients require an emergency call-out, an annual maintenance check, a retrofit for energy efficiency or a bespoke heating installation for a sprawling mansion, Listique-listed boiler engineers can help.
Expect safety
Building Regulations are designed to ensure works are carried out safely at private residences. All Gas Safe registered businesses like those recommended by Listique for London’s most exclusive homes will issue homeowners with the Building Regulations Compliance Certificate for installations, retrofits, repairs, or changes between one type of hot-water central heating boiler and another. All guidelines and approved documents are strictly adhered to. Trust our engineers to find gas leaks; trust them to test controls; trust them to replace and repair. They know what they are doing.
Expect longevity
To enter our list, each experienced engineer is committed to installing new boilers and maintaining them for their extended lifetime, in line with manufacturers’ guidelines. We presuppose that longevity can be expected of the boiler itself – however we also expect it from the company providing it. Hence our suppliers being locals who know the boroughs of London well and have been running small businesses for a long time. At Listique we showcase city-based professional heating experts who may not have the same marketing budget as the big boys but have been in business for many years and are reputable, reliable, and discrete.
Expect low-carbon heating
Most homeowners are aware that the UK has committed to becoming a zero-carbon country by 2050. In order to reach that goal, in last year’s Spring Statement the Chancellor announced that gas boilers in new homes built from 2025 onwards will be banned. Bearing this in mind, all of our recommended boiler and heating suppliers have created strategies for the future of heating without fossil fuels. By combining different renewable technologies, low-carbon heat is a realistic option. Intelligent heating systems such as Daikin’s Altherma Hybrid are among the alternatives available to Listique’s conscientious members. Being eco-friendly does not sacrifice luxury or style as the wide range of upmarket energy-efficient appliances available for those committed to a responsible, sustainable future.
Expect energy efficiency
Whatever heating system our members opt for, working with our select boiler engineers guarantees the result will be energy efficient. Each engineer is trained in energy efficiency with the double advantage of saving the environment and reducing energy bills. Our suppliers all feature on the Gas Safe Register and thus can be consulted about how to meet ISO methods for optimizing energy performance. As homeowners of large properties and stately homes, Listique members seek energy conservation. There is genuine concern about the environmental impact of heating their homes which can be mitigated by energy efficiency. Request an energy audit from any of Listique’s partners in order to find out more.
Expect smart control technology
When it comes to smart heating controls, programmable thermosats or apps that control household heating from a mobile device, the options are varied. Our recommended partners are boiler engineers who have tried and tested the best on the market before offering them to clients. Trust them to provide geofencing in such a way that it does not drain the battery of the phone or tablet from which the thermostat technology runs. Knowing it is perfectly possible to talk to the thermostat via Google Assistant or Alexa, asking the temperature in a room to be set at 72ºF with maximum convenience (to give just one example), Listique’s partners find the right system compatible with your virtual assistant home technology.
Expect maintenance
Commercial and domestic boiler repairs are the name of the game. These are carried out efficiently, with no inconvenience to the client. These boiler engineers know that the individuals who require their assistance are often “time-poor” and require certain flexibility from the boiler repair contractor. Looking for cold water booster set repairs? Call any of the professionals on our list! In any typical day they can be found bleeding radiators in mansion houses, expelling excess air from heating systems, running routine tests on pipes, fixing flues, carrying out a boiler service, checking seals or attending to emergency repairs.
However, our boiler engineer partners promise, that if clients consult them on the best solution for their house, they will deliver bespoke, long-lasting systems with inbuilt features that reduce wear and tear. With comprehensive advice prior to choosing a boiler, its maintenance with one of Listique’s recommended boiler engineers becomes a smooth and certified annual appointment. Pressure, flow, tightness testing and purging is done within the allotted time and with minimum inconvenience.
