<p class="isSelectedEnd">My boiler is getting quite old and I&rsquo;m starting to wonder whether repairing it is still the best option or whether I should invest in a replacement. I&rsquo;ve been researching boiler installation in Bristol and would like to hear from homeowners who have recently replaced their boilers.

<p class="isSelectedEnd">What signs usually indicate that an old boiler should be replaced rather than repaired? I&rsquo;m particularly interested in reliability, energy efficiency, running costs and the expected lifespan of a new system. I&rsquo;d also like to understand whether a modern boiler can make a noticeable difference to heating and hot water performance.

For anyone who has recently arranged boiler installation in Bristol, what type of boiler did you choose and why? How did you find your installer, and were there any important questions you asked before accepting a quotation? Any advice or recommendations from people with recent experience would be really helpful.
