"Expensive Boilers Are Always The Best Boilers" 

Of course not, in fact, just because boilers can be very pricy, it doesn't necessarily suggest they are a lot better. However, regardless of the cost of your boiler, having an annual boiler service will massively reduce the possibilities for needing repairs on your boiler and is a great option for keeping on top of the condition of your boiler. 

Boiler servicing involves a Gas Safe registered engineer, conducting the necessary checks and tests on your boiler to ensure everything is running smoothly and efficiently. Also, its worth knowing that boiler servicing is legally required by landlords on an annual basis for their property.

"Bigger Boilers, Better Heat" 

Again, the reality of this myth is that bigger boilers push out more heat, although if your radiators are too small, the amount of heat received will be just the same as it would be with a smaller boiler.  Conclusively, whether you have the biggest boiler on the street, it won't determine better or more improved heat. Your boiler should and the entire system should correlate with the size of your home.

"Larger Radiators Are Much Better" 

Similar to the previous myth, many people believe that larger radiators determines or indicates an improvement in heat. In fact, believe it or not, this isn't the case and larger radiators could cause your boiler to be overworked.
