BOXT was the first online-only boiler installation company. They digitised much of the installation process, allowing them to offer lower prices than their competitors.

BOXT’s prices start from around £1,745 for new boiler installations in 2024. In this article, we’ll explore BOXT boiler prices and their installation process to help you make the right decision.

How Does BOXT Work?

The process is fairly straightforward and BOXT’s website is intuitive and easy to use. 

Instead of booking an appointment for a surveyor to come to your home and assess the right boiler for your needs, you simply answer some dynamic questions on the BOXT website which will select a shortlist of recommended boiler packages for you.

Their online platform is great for straightforward jobs, especially when you’re looking for a like-for-like boiler replacement in the same location. As the complexity of the job increases beyond the capabilities of the website, you are asked to call them to discuss your options with an engineer over the phone.

You purchase your new boiler online and it’s delivered to your door – essentially a boiler in a box. The engineer turns up on the day you booked and installs your new boiler.

BOXT boilers price promise

BOXT have a price promise, where they will try to beat all like-for-like quotes, and if they can’t, they’ll give customers a £50 Amazon voucher.

What Boilers Do BOXT Install?

BOXT only install natural Gas and LPG boilers. If you have an oil-powered, electric or biofuel boiler, or no central heating at all, BOXT can’t help you and you need to find another boiler installer.

However, BOXT can help you if your existing boiler is a combi, standard (also known as conventional or regular boiler), system boiler or back boiler.

Once you have chosen your existing system type, you will be asked a series of dynamic questions based on your previous answers to identify your requirements and calculate your quotes.

  1. First, you answer questions about your property type, the boiler’s location, and your heating and hot water needs. 
  2. Then, you’ll be asked some safety and regulation questions to make sure the new boiler can stay in its current spot. 
  3. After you finish, you’ll get a list of recommended boiler packages to choose from.

You will be charged more if you want to move the location of your new boiler. The additional prices are laid out in the table below.
