Boilerhut

What Boilerhut does

Boilerhut is a UK-based private boiler installation company founded in 2013 and headquartered in Cardiff, Wales, operating as Boilerhut Ltd. It installs gas, oil, and LPG boilers as well as air source heat pumps for UK residential homeowners (primary segment), landlords, and letting agents, delivered through a nationwide network of Gas Safe and APHC registered engineers with the highest demand concentration in London, Birmingham, and the North-West of England. The company is an official Viessmann Premium Partner, enabling extended warranties of up to 12 years, and holds PAS 2030 accreditation for installation quality.

The company's core technology is a proprietary online quotation platform that delivers instant fixed-price boiler quotes in under 60 seconds based on a property questionnaire, removing the need for a physical pre-installation survey. Quotes are validated and closed via a follow-up phone call from an in-house expert, supported by remote photo and video assessment of the property. The platform also integrates with Phoenix Financial Consultants for 3-10 year boiler finance and with tado° and EPH for smart heating controls. The technology stack is fundamentally a configuration and quoting engine rather than an AI-driven system, and the company uses standard web infrastructure (Google Analytics, Google Consent Mode v2).

Boilerhut's revenue model combines one-time installation payments with a recurring service layer. Installations are paid upfront or financed through Phoenix Financial Consultants (under which Boilerhut acts as an Introducer Appointed Representative), while ongoing customer relationships are monetized through annual Boiler Care Plans that maintain manufacturer warranties. Distribution is direct-to-consumer via self-serve online quote, inside sales, and the national engineer network, supported by a digital-first marketing approach including an extensive SEO content library, social media presence across Facebook, Instagram, X, and LinkedIn, and 5-star Trustpilot reviews.
