Andrew’s boiler replacement
Andrew called us about an erratic boiler. Liam assessed the job, then our team fitted a Worcester Bosch replacement and renewed the roof flue.
“Since then we’ve had running hot water and decent showers and we’re really pleased actually.”
Andrew’s own account of his installation. His completion time and guarantee comments relate to his job, not every installation.
Talk to us about your boiler“We had a very erratic boiler that wouldn’t work at all or it would be very hot and then it would be very cold and we called Vector heating in and Liam came and had a look and he very quickly gave us a price on a new boiler. We had a Worcester Bosch in the end because you get a 10 to 12 year guarantee on those and what really amazed me is it wasn’t an urgent job but Vector Heat came very quickly. Two chaps arrived early in the morning and they took the flue out from the old boiler up in the roof, reinstated completely new flue and they put in a lovely Worcester Bosch boiler and by lunchtime they’d finished, which absolutely amazed me, and since then we’ve had running hot water and decent showers and we’re really pleased actually.”
“Absolutely no pressure on us.”
“Prompt installation by professional staff. Explained everything and left my house tidy.”
“Tested everything before leaving”


More than a new box on the wall
We look at hot-water demand, water flow, the existing heating, flue, fuel supply and controls. You get suitable options and a written price for the agreed job.
We protect the work area, take the old boiler away and clean up afterwards. We’ll discuss access and any making-good work before we start.
We assess the cleaning your heating needs and fit a magnetic filter. A full powerflush is quoted where needed, not added to every installation.
We commission the boiler, register its manufacturer guarantee and show you how to use the controls. You get the paperwork and someone local to call afterwards.
Our gas work is carried out by Gas Safe registered engineers. Check the Gas Safe Register.
Know what you’re buying
We offer boilers with 5, 7, 10 and 12-year manufacturer guarantees. Your written quote states the term for the model and package you choose, so there’s no guesswork.
We’ll register your boiler after installation and explain the servicing it needs. We also provide annual gas boiler servicing after the installation.
The manufacturer guarantee covers the boiler under its terms. It is not unlimited cover for every part of your heating system.
From first call to warm home
Call or send your details. Let us know if you’re without heating or hot water so we can check the earliest suitable appointment.
We check the property, explain suitable boilers and confirm the work, guarantee and price before you decide.
A straightforward replacement usually takes one full day. We agree the programme, test the installation and show you how everything works.
A cylinder-to-combi conversion normally needs around two days; a back-boiler conversion around three. Moving the boiler or finding extra system work can extend the job. We’ll explain likely heating and hot-water interruptions beforehand.
The right boiler for your home
Two showers running together tell us more than the number on your old boiler. We check hot-water demand, incoming water flow and the heat your home actually needs before choosing a replacement.
Heating and hot water without a separate cylinder. Often a good fit where demand and mains flow suit it, but not automatically the answer for several bathrooms in use together.
A boiler serving a hot-water cylinder, with the pump and expansion vessel built in. We check both the heating and cylinder arrangement before recommending it.
Sometimes retaining a sound existing boiler-and-cylinder arrangement is the sensible choice. We won’t turn a straightforward replacement into a conversion you don’t need.
We fit all three. For an off-grid home, our oil boiler replacement service covers indoor and outdoor options. Our LPG boiler installation service has LPG-specific guide prices and explains the tank or cylinder supply checks before a replacement.
And if you’re deciding between technologies, we can help you compare a boiler or heat pump before committing to either.

Your boiler quote
These are guide prices, not a final quotation. We will confirm the boiler, flue, controls, system condition and exact guarantee before agreeing a fixed price.
Local engineers based in Lincoln
You may know us as Central Plumbing & Heating. We’re now Vector Heat, based at Unit 16, Witham Point, Wavell Drive, Lincoln, LN3 4PL.
Liam has 23 years’ experience in plumbing and heating, including 14 years surveying and more than 5,000 boiler and heat-pump property visits. That experience helps us spot awkward flues, weak mains flow and system issues before they become installation-day surprises.
If the sensible answer is a repair, we’ll say so. A new boiler won’t fix every cold radiator or circulation problem. We can arrange a boiler repair assessment where that is the better first step.

Owner, Vector Heat
Heating surveys and practical advice
Before you decide
Our small-home gas combi replacement guide options are £1,918, £2,201 and £2,528 including VAT, depending on the model. These assume a straightforward combi swap with a wall flue and no additional powerflush. A different flue route, boiler move, cylinder conversion, supply work or system condition can change the price. We survey before giving a fixed written quote.
Next-day installation is often possible, but depends on the job, boiler stock and our diary. Tell us if you’re without heating or hot water. We’ll check the earliest suitable date; sending an enquiry does not reserve a next-day slot.
A straightforward replacement normally takes one full working day. A cylinder-to-combi conversion usually takes around two days and a back-boiler conversion around three. We’ll explain the expected interruptions and any extra work before you agree to the installation.
Not every model or package has a 12-year guarantee. We offer 5, 7, 10 and 12-year manufacturer terms depending on the option chosen. Your written quote confirms the exact term and servicing conditions. We register the boiler after installation.
Often, yes, but we first check simultaneous hot-water demand, mains flow, showers and the work needed to remove the cylinder and tanks. Keeping a cylinder can be the better choice for higher hot-water demand.
The system needs suitable clean water, but not every installation needs a full powerflush. We assess contamination, circulation and the existing arrangement, specify the cleaning required and fit a magnetic filter. Any full powerflush is clearly quoted.
Yes. We install gas, oil and LPG boilers in Lincoln and the surrounding area. Tell us the fuel type when you enquire so we can check the correct appliance, supply and installation requirements.
