Keston Boilers

I undertake repair, servicing and installation of all Keston boilers.

I am fully experienced with all aspects of Keston boilers, from the common problems, to the not so common.

One of the great things about these boilers is how easy it is to get parts. All parts are available, even for very old models.

Most problems associated with this boiler are due to Installation defects - and quite often easy to sort

I could go on forever on this page, I know these boilers backwards, any query's call me, or read more here

Modifications

There are some known failures on Keston boilers, a huge number of these have not been modified. A corrugated internal flue tube is one, an overfill sensor on the condensate trap is another...
