40+ years of heating this home… and the difference speaks for itself! 👀

This old Trianco boiler had certainly done its time, but it wasn’t just inefficient in fuel usage — it was inefficient in its use of space too.

By redesigning the layout completely, we’ve transformed this cramped plant room into a far cleaner, more serviceable and far more efficient heating system.

✔️ Modern high efficiency Worcester Bosch boiler, huge reduction in emissions and fuel costs
✔️ Re-piped and reorganised heating controls
✔️ S-Plan conversion for more efficient control of heating and hot water
✔️ Improved accessibility for future servicing and maintenance
✔️ Significantly cleaner and more reliable setup

Sometimes replacing a boiler is about far more than just changing the box on the floor.

We think the engineers have done a cracking job on this one 👏🔥

A boiler change does not have to be boring!

When we replaced this customer’s boiler, they were already redecorating and saw it as the perfect opportunity to bring the heating system up to date at the same time.

Rather than simply replacing like-for-like, they chose darker anthracite radiators to complement the muted green wall panelling, and we think the finished look works brilliantly!

Modern heating does not just have to perform well. With the right choices, it can look like it belongs in the room too.

Thinking about updating your home? Whether it is a boiler replacement, radiator upgrade, smart heating controls, or making the whole system look a bit more modern, DB Heating can help you plan the best option.

What would you change about your heating system?

A beautiful bathroom recently supplied and installed by our team.

The customer had a clear vision for a bathroom that sat somewhere between modern and classic country styling, and we think the finished result works brilliantly.

The deep navy vanity unit, LED backlit mirror, timber-effect flooring and stone-finish bath splashback all come together really well. The LED downlighting to the bath panel is a particularly nice finishing touch.

We carried out the supply and installation of the sanitaryware, fixtures and fittings, helping bring the customer’s chosen design to life.

Whether you need a simple tap replacement, help fitting items you have already chosen, or a complete bathroom overhaul including plumbing, fixtures, fittings and minor building works, DB Heating can help.

First fix done right! 🔧

Just because pipework will be hidden once the property is finished does not mean it should be treated as less important.

At DB Heating Ltd, we believe the standard behind the walls, under the floors, and out of sight matters just as much as the parts you see every day.

These photos show a recent first fix completed by our team, with clean, detailed pipework installed with care, precision, and pride. We take the same approach on every job: do it properly, do it neatly, and do it to a standard we are proud to put our name to.

High standards are not just for the finished look.

Worried a modern system wont fit in with your period home? 🏠 Fear not! We have the skills to adapt any home 🦸

In these images you can see just a few of the upgrades that this beautiful stone built cottage on the edge of Dartmoor has benefitted from. Not just classic looking column rads and polished brass pipe clips, as usual every element was carefully considered 👨‍🔬

The brand new Worcester Bosch condensing LPG boiler was selected after a detailed analysis of available technologies with the homeowner, and carefully located within a tucked away cupboard, so as to be out of sight during day to day use of the property.

When choosing an LPG fired boiler, the customer was aware of other technologies and mentioned that they may consider them in the future, as technology develops. So we helped them save money down the road by sizing all of the radiators carefully as heat pump suitable 😁

This has the added bonus that the new condensing boiler can operate a lower flow temperature than standard, and use even less gas to heat the home! Less gas = cheaper running costs 🏅

Get in touch today to see how we can help you!

Hybrid heating = the best of both worlds 🔥❄️

We’ve just installed this Worcester Bosch Gas & Heat pump "hybrid" system – combining a gas combi to supply instant hot water, with an air source heat pump that works for heating.

✅ Lower running costs
✅ Smarter use of solar PV
✅ Reduced carbon footprint

It’s not for every home (the grant doesn’t apply to hybrids), but if you want to maximise efficiency without replacing everything, this could be a game-changer! Get in touch today via 01822 611300 to see if this kind of setup could work for you.

Some of the pictures we get of finished works make us so proud!

Looking back at it, this job required a touch of finesse. Upgrading the old range cooker fed heating, to a modern high efficiency boiler, powered by the "off grid" option of LPG.

You can clearly see the pride our engineers take in their work, from the flawlessly soldered fittings, the pulled bends on the new pipework to avoid unnecessary resistance, to the properly insulated condense waste pipe, complete with air gap into the available drainage.

As you can see from the freshly hoovered carpet in the finished bedroom, we go above and beyond when it comes to looking after our customers homes!

Well done to our team for showing everyone why we are "Your Trusted Tradesmen" 🏅

Thinking about spreading the cost of a new boiler? Good news! From 29th September 2025 our finance rate for up to 10 years is being reduced from 9.9% APR to 7.9% APR Representative.

For example, a boiler installation costing £3,000 could be financed over 120 months at 7.9% APR Representative. That would mean monthly repayments of £36.24, with a total amount payable of £4,348.80 (including interest).

With boiler guarantees of up to 10 or even 12 years available, you could enjoy one fixed monthly cost for a whole 10 years! No unexpected repair costs, all covered under the manufacturers guarantee.

Finance is subject to status and affordability checks. Terms and conditions apply. DB Heating Ltd acts as a credit broker and not the lender. Credit is provided by Novuna, authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.
