5 Key Reasons to Install a New Boiler in Your Hotel
Whether guests are visiting family, working in the area, or simply looking for a relaxing escape, they all have one thing in common: they expect comfort. And let’s face it, stepping into a room that feels like an Arctic blast is hardly a recipe for relaxation.
But guest comfort isn’t the only reason to prioritise your hotel’s heating system. Upgrading your system comes with a wealth of practical and financial benefits, making it a truly worthwhile investment in your business.
The team at Asbury Heating have worked with hoteliers all across the South, giving us a deep understanding of how much a modern, efficient heating system can benefit your hotel. Below, we break down the five biggest advantages of upgrading your hotel’s heating system, from reducing bills to improving green credentials.
1. Improve Your Guests’ Experience
This is the most obvious benefit of a better heating system. An older heating system will struggle to keep up with demand, leaving guests shivering through long waits for warmth or dealing with frustrating cold spots. Modern systems, on the other hand, warm up quickly and deliver reliable heat for as long as your guests need it. This translates to happier guests, more positive reviews, and a glowing reputation – the recipe for a successful hotel.
2. Save on Your Energy Bills
It’s not just negative reviews you’ll cut down on – it’s your operating costs, too! Modern boilers are much more energy-efficient than older models, which means they use less fuel for the same output. This leads to substantially lower bills than before.
According to the Energy Saving Trust, replacing an old boiler in a detached house can reduce energy bills by an impressive £580 per year. And since hotels are typically much larger than houses, the savings on your bills would be even higher!
Depending on the age and energy efficiency of your current system, you could save anywhere from several hundred to over a thousand pounds per year. These savings will quickly offset the initial installation costs while making your hotel more cost-effective in the long run, freeing up funds to improve your hotel elsewhere.
3. Boost Your Hotel’s Green Credentials
Sustainability is no longer a niche concern, but a major factor shaping how people travel and choose hotels. A Booking.com survey of 29,000 travellers found that 83% prioritise sustainable travel, and 53% are frustrated by un-eco-friendly accommodations.
Investing in a new, energy-efficient boiler is a fantastic step towards a greener hotel. It reduces your carbon footprint by cutting energy use and emissions, while attracting eco-conscious guests who value your commitment to sustainability. This positions your hotel as an environmentally friendly destination, making it a more attractive choice for today’s travellers.
4. Reduce the Risk of Breakdowns
As boilers age and wear out, their risk of breakdowns skyrockets. These breakdowns not only inconvenience your guests, as mentioned earlier, but also lead to expensive repairs that can drain your finances over time.
New boilers are made with more robust components than older models, making them much more reliable. By making the switch, you’ll minimise unexpected breakdowns and the financial burden they bring. Newer models also come with warranties, offering extra peace of mind by reducing your maintenance costs during the warranty period.
5. Protect Against Property Damage
This is something that’s often easy to overlook, but it really shouldn’t be. Unreliable heating can lead to damp, mould, and rot developing, which can have disastrous consequences for your hotel. Not only does it put guest health at risk and attract unwanted attention from inspectors, but it can also damage your hotel’s structure, leading to expensive repairs. Investing in a new boiler ensures consistent heat, keeping these problems at bay and resulting in a cleaner, safer environment for all.
