The Numbers That Matter
What Buyers Really Want
Understanding buyer priorities in Scotland's competitive market
Buyer Priorities:
Our research shows 37% of buyers specifically look for new boilers when house hunting. In Scotland's climate, this percentage is even higher.
70% of new build buyers rate energy efficiency as critical.
A gleaming new boiler with warranty paperwork removes a major "hidden cost" fear from buyers' minds.
Why Efficiency Matters Here
Extended Winter
With our long heating season (Oct-April), buyers fear high bills. A new system alleviates that fear.
98% Efficiency
Modern A-rated boilers are nearly twice as efficient as older G-rated models.
12 Year Warranty
Transferable warranties (like our Worcester Bosch ones) are a huge selling point.
Best Brands for Resale Value:

⚠️ Does Your Boiler Need Replacing?
- Is it over 15 years old? (G-Rated)
- Does it make banging or kettling noises?
- Do radiators take ages to heat up?
- Are there visible signs of rust or leaks?
Tip: Surveyors will spot these issues and down-value your home by £5k-£10k to cover potential replacement costs.
Why Professional Installation Matters
Legally, you must provide a Building Regulations Compliance Certificate when selling. We provide this automatically.
- Full Warranty Registration
- Gas Safe Notification
- Benchmark Logbook Completion
