Metering providers smart meters and Nightstor:-

A large number of problems we see are now caused by metering providers who cannot wire up electric meters and do not understand the requirements for Nightstor boilers, we have had to sort out issues time and again and the smart meter program has not improved the situation . We have unfortunately seen an increasing number of fires directly caused by metering faults and meter wiring. . We do not recommend the installation of smart meters to any of our customers

Can we move our boiler :-

Yes a Nightstor Dry Core boiler can be unbuilt and rebuilt again but this has to be done properly with new insulation panels & elements and rebuilt using build jigs. We have successfully moved and rebuilt boilers including NS 250 which has a total weight of 1.97tonnes

What happens if its not a boiler fault:-

Should the problem be with the heating system or with the external electrics we will not ask you to find another contractor and leave you with no heating.

Do you sell parts :-

We stock most parts with a first time pick of 80% of functional parts we do not supply parts only, dry core boilers are a complicated product needing the expert care that only a trained experienced specialist can offer.

My boiler is quite old is it worth fixing :-

GEC Nightstor Dry core boilers some of which are over 25 years old are still as good as when they were first installed, off peak electric heating is one of the most efficient forms of heating with low running costs and a dry core boiler is up to 97% efficient at point of use.

Vat on repairs and service :-

We are sorry but all our invoices carry vat @ 20%on parts and labour

Power flushing and blocked systems:-

Power flushing will not unblock a damaged heat exchanger on a nightstor boiler, flushing may also cause a heat exchanger to block as will adding flushing chemicals to a system. Care must be taken to avoid any damage to the boilers heat exchanger and contamination to pipework behind the boiler unit. Any work must avoid the movement of sludge to the boiler level which will result in the need to remove and replace the heat exchanger.
