No obligation. - 7+ Years experience - 150+ Full systems installed - Every job Heat-loss calculation - #558388 Gas Safe registered - 5–20 yrs Warranty Service Overview ## Central Heating Installation, explained simply. Honest, plain-English answers, what the service is, who it's for, when you need it, and why a Gas Safe specialist matters. What it is Design, supply and full installation of a complete gas central heating system, boiler, hot-water cylinder where required, radiators, primary and secondary pipework, controls and zoning. Who it's for Homeowners and landlords installing heating for the first time, replacing electric or solid-fuel heating, extending a system for an extension or loft conversion, or starting again on an old, undersized or failing system. When you need it When the existing system can't meet hot-water demand, can't heat the whole house evenly, has been outgrown by an extension, or has reached the end of its serviceable life. Why a pro matters Most underperforming heating systems are not faulty, they were never properly designed in the first place. A correct heat-loss calculation, the right boiler output, the right cylinder, and balanced pipework deliver a system that lasts 20+ years. The Cost of Ignoring It ## What it costs to wait, and the mistakes that make it worse. A badly designed central heating system is one of the most expensive things in a home to live with, and to put right later. If you leave it - Cold rooms, weak showers, and never enough hot water - Oversized boiler short-cycling and wearing out years early - Undersized cylinder running out 10 minutes into a shower - Sludged pipework destroying pumps and PCBs - Whole-system replacement needed within 8–10 years instead of 20+ Common mistakes - Picking boiler output by rule of thumb instead of heat-loss calc - Combi boiler in a 2+ bathroom house with no cylinder - Reusing old 8mm microbore pipework on a new system - Skipping zoning so kitchen and bedrooms run on one thermostat Our Process ## A clear, predictable system, from first call to sign-off. 01 ### Survey & heat-loss calc Every room measured, U-values estimated, total heat-loss calculated to BS EN 12831, sets boiler and radiator sizing. 02 ### System design Combi vs system vs regular decided against bathrooms and demand, pipe routes drawn, zoning planned, controls specified. 03 ### Fixed written quote Itemised quote, boiler, cylinder, radiators, pipework, controls, labour, flush, commissioning, fixed in writing. 04 ### Install & flush Pipework installed, radiators hung and balanced, boiler and cylinder fitted, system fully flushed and inhibited. 05 ### Commission & sign-off Gas Safe notified, Building-Regs cert issued, manufacturer warranty registered in your name, full system demo and handover. The Benefits ## Why customers choose C Nixon for central heating installation. ### Sized correctly Heat-loss-based design means warm rooms, fast recovery and a boiler that modulates instead of cycling. ### Long warranty Manufacturer parts-and-labour cover from 5 to 20 years depending on the boiler. As an approved Vaillant installer we can register flagship Vaillant models at the top of that range. ### Lower bills Properly sized, controlled, balanced systems run 15–30% cheaper than the system they replace. ### Future-proof Designed with larger pipework and emitters where it makes sense, ready for a heat pump in years to come. ### Certified & notified Gas Safe notification and Building-Regs compliance certificate, required for resale and remortgage. ### One trusted team Same engineer from survey through to demo, not three contractors and a missing accountability chain.
