Why Choose an Accredited Installer? The Value of Vaillant and Glow-worm Platinum-Rated Approval
When it comes to heating system installations, not all engineers are created equal. At Westons Plumbing and Heating, we're proud to hold platinum-level accreditation with both Vaillant and Glow-worm, two of the UK's most respected heating manufacturers. But what does this mean for you as a homeowner?
Understanding Manufacturer Accreditation
Both Vaillant and Glow-worm operate sophisticated accreditation programmes designed to ensure their products are installed to the highest possible standards. Rather than selling to any Gas Safe registered engineer, these manufacturers carefully vet and train their approved installers.
The Vaillant Advance Programme
Vaillant's "Advance" system operates on multiple tiers, with Mastertech being the highest level available. To achieve this status, engineers must demonstrate exceptional competency through:
- Comprehensive product training at Vaillant's Centres of Excellence
- Regular updates on new products and industry regulations
- Ongoing performance reviews and customer satisfaction assessments
Benefits for Our Customers
Extended Warranties: Up to 10 years' protection on your heating system installation.
Priority Technical Support: Direct access to Vaillant's specialist technical team for swift resolution of issues.
Expert Knowledge: Cutting-edge expertise in all Vaillant products and heating technologies.
Glow-worm Club Energy Accreditation
Glow-worm's "Club Energy" scheme ensures installers are fully trained across all Glow-worm products, from boilers to controls. Club Energy installers can offer exclusive extended guarantees of up to 15 years on selected models, providing exceptional long-term protection for your investment.
Why Platinum-Level Accreditation Matters
Achieving platinum status with both manufacturers demonstrates Westons Plumbing and Heating's commitment to excellence through rigorous quality assurance programmes, continuous professional development, and technical expertise that goes far beyond basic Gas Safe registration.
The Difference Professional Installation Makes
Many homeowners focus solely on the boiler brand when making their choice, but the quality of installation is equally crucial. Vaillant is an excellent manufacturer, but the boiler can be let down badly due to poor installation. Many shortcuts can be taken when installing a boiler; these can make the installation faster and cheaper, but can have a devastating effect on the boiler's performance and reliability.
No Shortcuts Policy
Under no circumstances will we take any short cuts. Of particular concern to all boiler manufacturers is the quality of the water in the central heating system. We carry out a full power flush when we install. This attention to detail ensures your heating system operates at peak efficiency from day one.
Advanced Controls and Efficiency
Vaillant is at the cutting edge of energy efficiency controls that save you money on your gas bill. These controls know the outside temperature as well as the inside and adjust the boiler's settings to suit. This stops the boiler from working harder than it needs to and, as a result, will hit your desired temperature using less gas than a conventional control.
