It isn’t often that we get something free in this world however British Gas are offering a free heating and energy assessment to anyone who rings and makes an appointment. Obviously you have to be at least interested in buying either a new boiler or a new central heating system from British Gas to take advantage of the offer but it is a no obligation quote and you aren’t held to anything once the assessment is done.

The Assessment
The process is simple – you just ring up British Gas on 0845 074 5994 and make an appointment for a fully trained heating advisor to visit your property. Once they arrive they complete a full energy assessment of your property and of your existing central heating system to see where improvements can be made. Following the assessment, your personal heating advisor will calculate how much money you could be saving on your gas bills by having a new system fitted and they will also make a number of recommendations regarding which gas boiler and heating system to have installed. At the same time the heating advisor will explain the payment options available to you so you can make a decision without worrying about where you’ll find a few thousand pounds.

Following the Assessment
Obviously British Gas don’t expect you to make your mind up on the spur of the moment and so the no obligation quote they give you stays valid for a number of months. If you decide to take advantage of the quote then it is another simple phone call to book the installation date. However, if you decide against it then you haven’t lost anything and you won’t be continuously contacted by British Gas in a bid to change your mind.

Why take Advantage of this Offer?
The main reason as I see it is because it is absolutely free and even if you decide to ignore the quote and the heating advice that British Gas give you then at least you have found out how energy efficient your home is – or isn’t as the case may be. Plus because British Gas are such a reliable and well-known company you can trust them to be telling you the truth with regards to the efficiency of your heating system and the improvements that can be made, should you decide to have the work done.

So in conclusion, it doesn’t take a genius to see that the free no-obligation heating assessments being offered to all householders by British Gas are a top idea and that at the end of the day you have absolutely nothing to lose by taking advantage of the service. You might even find that with the variety of payment options and plans available you can actually afford to replace your boiler or your central heating system and start saving the money that British Gas say you can.
