Expert Central Heating Solutions
A well-designed central heating system is the foundation of a warm, comfortable and energy-efficient home. Whether you’re looking to install a completely new central heating system in a property that doesn’t currently have one, replace an outdated system that is no longer performing reliably, or extend and upgrade your existing setup, the quality of the installation matters enormously.
At GLP Air Conditioning, our Gas Safe-registered engineers have the expertise to design and fit central heating systems that are tailored to your home, delivering consistent warmth and reliable hot water for years to come.

Designing the Right System for Your Home
Central heating is not simply a matter of fitting a boiler and connecting some radiators. A well-designed system takes into account the size and layout of your property, the number of rooms, your insulation levels, the hot water demand of your household and your long-term energy efficiency goals.
Property Size and Layout
Insulation Levels
Hot Water Demand
Energy Efficiency Goals
Our engineers carry out a thorough assessment before any work begins, using this information to specify a system that is correctly sized and configured for your home. Oversized or undersized systems can result in poor performance, higher running costs and greater wear on key components, so getting the design right at the outset is essential.
installation process
What a New Central Heating Installation Involves
A full central heating installation typically involves the fitting of a new boiler, the laying of pipework throughout the property, the fitting of radiators in each room and the installation of appropriate controls such as a programmer, room thermostat and thermostatic radiator valves.
Boiler Installation
Fitting a new boiler as the heart of the system.
Pipework Installation
Laying pipework throughout the property neatly.
Radiator Fitting
Installing radiators in each room as needed.
Control Installation
Adding programmer, thermostat and TRVs.
Testing and Balancing
Full testing to ensure even heating throughout.
Clean and Tidy
Minimal disruption with clean work areas throughout.
All pipework is run as neatly and unobtrusively as possible, and the finished installation is fully tested and balanced before we leave to ensure every radiator heats evenly and the system performs to its full potential.

Smart Heating Controls and Modern Efficiency
Modern central heating systems can be paired with smart thermostats and controls that give you much greater flexibility over how and when your home is heated. Systems from brands including Hive, Nest and Tado allow you to manage your heating remotely from your phone, set heating schedules that match your lifestyle and monitor your energy usage in real time.
These controls are easy to use and can make a meaningful difference to your heating bills by ensuring your system only runs when it needs to. Our engineers can advise on the right controls for your system and ensure everything is set up and working correctly before we leave.

Upgrades and System Extensions
Not every central heating project involves a full new installation. Many homeowners need their existing system extended, for example, to serve a new extension or a converted loft, or want to upgrade older components such as the boiler, controls or radiators to improve efficiency and performance.
Our team can assess your existing system, identify where improvements can be made and carry out the necessary work to bring it up to current standards. Whether the job is large or small, we apply the same high standard of workmanship and the same attention to detail throughout.
