Somerset Heat Pump & Solar Guide
Plumber, Gas Engineer, or Next-Generation Heating Engineer - What’s the Difference?
Not all heating professionals do the same job. A plumber focuses on water, pipework, and bathrooms. A gas engineer is trained and certified to work safely on gas appliances like boilers. A next-generation heating engineer goes a step further. They understand traditional heating systems but also specialise in modern, low-carbon technologies like heat pumps, solar energy, smart controls, and energy efficiency. It’s a broader skillset designed for how homes in Taunton are heated now, and how they’ll be heated in the future.
Heating engineering is an ever-evolving field that is constantly advancing with new technologies and innovations. In recent years, the industry has significantly shifted towards more sustainable and eco-friendly heating systems. As a result, today’s heating engineers can possess a wide range of skills and knowledge to meet the demands of modern heating systems. The next generation of heating engineers must should be well-versed in the latest heating technologies, including renewable energy systems such as solar panels, ground source and air source heat pumps. In addition, they should be knowledgeable about smart home controls and be able to integrate these systems into heating systems to ensure maximum efficiency and energy savings.

This represents a massive potential to contribute to the reduction of carbon emissions.

FAQ
Plumbing Questions from Taunton Folk
Here are some of the things we’re most often asked by customers across Taunton. If you’re still not sure about something, just give us a ring, we’re always happy to help.
Plumbers are not typically trained to handle boiler-related issues as they involve gas work. It’s best to call a qualified heating engineer to diagnose and repair boiler problems safely and effectively.
We mainly offer boiler and central heating installations, including radiator installations, power flushing of the central heating system, magnetic filter installations, unvented hot water tanks, and underfloor heating installations.
A power flush, also known as a system flush, cleans a central heating system. It involves pumping water and cleaning chemicals through the system at high velocity to remove debris, rust, and other contaminants that can build up over time. The process helps improve the heating system’s efficiency and can prevent breakdowns caused by blockages in the pipes. It is usually recommended to have a power flush done if you notice issues with your heating system, such as cold spots on radiators, unusual noises, or reduced heat output.
An inhibitor is a chemical added to a central heating system to protect the pipes and radiators from corrosion. The inhibitor creates a protective layer on the metal surfaces inside the heating system, which prevents oxygen from reacting with the metal and causing rust.
Yes, a leak on your radiator can cause pressure loss in your boiler. When there is a leak in the heating system, water will escape from the system, causing the pressure to drop. This can lead to a drop in pressure in the boiler, which can cause the boiler to shut down or fail to operate efficiently.
Our engineers will take a sample of the heating system water to check if corrosion is present, this will help prevent any future issues with the heating system. If we find the system to have signs of corrosion, we will advise the best method to rectify the issue. We offer heating system flush and inline magnetic filters to prevent this issue. If you would like further information, please check our website blogs to explain this in more detail.
