Central Heating Installation
About This Service
A complete heating system, planned for your home
A new central heating system is more than a new boiler. It's the boiler, the pipework, every radiator and valve, and the controls that tell it all when to work. If one part is wrong, the rest never performs as it should. Our central heating installation in Sheffield covers the whole system.
D.E.S. Gas Safe Solutions is a Gas Safe registered heating business based in Sheffield, serving Rotherham, Barnsley and the surrounding area. Homeowners regularly praise us in five-star Google reviews for clear advice, tidy work and prices that match the quote.

Our Process
How It Works
Site survey & heat-loss check
A Gas Safe engineer inspects your property, measures rooms and runs a heat-loss calculation to size radiators, pipework and the boiler for efficient, even heating.
Quotation & component selection
You receive a clear written quote with recommended boilers, radiators, controls and any required pipework or system upgrades, plus manufacturer-backed options where available.
Installation, commissioning & handover
Work is carried out by Gas Safe registered engineers, followed by accredited commissioning, system balancing, user demonstration and registration of warranties.
Benefits
Why Choose us for Central Heating Installation?
Experienced, accredited engineers
Our engineers are Gas Safe registered, and we're Vaillant Advance, Worcester Bosch and Ideal Max accredited installers, so your system is fitted to current regulations and to the manufacturers' own standards.
Manufacturer-backed warranties
Accredited installers can often offer a longer manufacturer warranty than the standard one, and we register it for you.
A clear price, agreed up front
Our customers often mention in their reviews that what they paid was exactly what they were quoted.
Lower running costs
A modern condensing boiler, radiators sized for each room and controls that only heat the rooms you're using all cut the gas you burn. How much you save depends on what you're replacing.
Even, reliable warmth
Correctly sized radiators and a balanced system mean no more cold rooms while others overheat. A clean, protected system is also far less likely to break down.
Older Sheffield homes need their own plan. Many homes here are Victorian and Edwardian stone or brick terraces with solid walls, high ceilings and big bay windows. They lose heat faster than a modern house, so radiators need sizing for each room rather than guessing. Older homes also tend to have a mix of pipework from past alterations, a regular boiler with tanks in the loft, or narrow microbore pipe that blocks easily. At the survey we tell you what can stay and what should be replaced.
What a new system should include. Your written quote lists everything we'll do, so you can see exactly what you're paying for. Whoever you choose, check that a full installation quote covers:
the boiler, flue and any gas pipe upgrade it needs
radiators and TRVs for each room
a room thermostat or smart controls (Wiser, Hive and Nest work with most systems where the wiring allows)
cleaning the old system, adding a corrosion inhibitor and fitting a magnetic filter to protect the boiler
commissioning, balancing and a completed Benchmark checklist, the record a manufacturer asks for before honouring a warranty
notifying the work under Building Regulations through Gas Safe Register, which sends you a compliance certificate
How much does a new central heating system cost? We price each installation after a survey, not from a list, because no two homes need the same work. The main things that affect the price are:
how many radiators you need, and whether any existing ones can stay
the type of boiler, as a combi is usually simpler to fit than a system boiler with a hot water cylinder
the size and layout of your home, including how many floors the pipes have to run through
the state of the old pipework, as corroded or undersized pipes need replacing
Removing loft tanks, moving the boiler or lifting floorboards in an older house all add time. You'll get a written quote with the full price before any work starts. If you'd rather spread the cost, see our FAQ on paying monthly.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Timing depends on property size and scope. A simple boiler swap and control upgrade can be done in a day, while a full system replacement with new radiators and pipework typically takes several days. We confirm a realistic schedule at survey and keep disruption to a minimum with clear daily plans.
Yes. We carry out room-by-room heat-loss calculations as standard to size the boiler and radiators correctly. This prevents oversizing, gives even heating and helps you choose the most efficient equipment for the property and usage pattern.
Yes. We install manufacturer-approved boilers and register any available extended warranties as part of the commissioning process. Our manufacturer accreditations help maximise warranty entitlement on many systems.
If the existing system shows sludge, corrosion or poor radiator heat‑up, we’ll recommend a power‑flush before fitting new components. Power‑flushing protects the new boiler and radiators and is available as a follow-on service if required.
Yes. We can introduce you to finance through TradeHelp, a credit broker that works with a small panel of lenders, so you can spread the cost of a new system. All loans are subject to status.
