At David Banfield Plumbing & Heating Ltd, we take pride in offering a comprehensive domestic heating service to the residents of Witney and the surrounding areas of Oxfordshire. With over 20 years of experience in the industry, our team is dedicated to providing top-quality boiler installations, cylinder installations, boiler services, repairs, and powerflushing.

We understand the importance of maintaining a comfortable and energy-efficient home. This is why we specialise in heating upgrades that are designed to lower your gas bills and keep you warm during the colder months. Our team is well-versed in the recent changes to the Building Regulations in 2022, which highlight the need for improvements in the way we heat our homes. Sadly, many boilers are still being installed and maintained in a way that they are not reaching their full potential with regards to efficiency.

We believe in adopting low-temperature heating principles that yield a range of benefits, including appropriately sized boilers, lower running costs, quieter operation, less stress on the system, and stable room temperatures. Our team is Heat Geek accredited, ensuring a deeper understanding of system design. We also conduct heat loss surveys using the Heat Engineer App to provide the necessary information to design your heating system accurately.

Our boiler installations are designed to meet your specific needs, taking into account the adoption of low-temperature heating principles. We ensure that your boiler is appropriately sized, which reduces purchase and running costs, as well as cycling. Lower operating temperatures increase boiler efficiency, thereby reducing gas usage. Our systems are designed to operate more quietly, reducing pipe expansion noises, and putting less stress on the system, which reduces thermal expansion of seals and boiler components.

We understand the importance of maintaining stable room temperatures, reducing temperature swings of over and under heating. Our team is well-versed in the use of weather compensation, which allows the system to automatically adjust the temperature of the radiators based on the temperature outside. This ensures that your home stays comfortable and energy-efficient throughout the year.

When it comes to hot water, we prioritise the use of external weather sensors to automatically adjust the temperature of the radiators. This ensures that your hot water cylinder is heated to the required 60°C, while your radiators operate at a maximum of 55°C. This optimises boiler efficiency and ensures that your condensing boiler stays in condensing mode.

Our team is committed to ensuring that your heating system is designed with the latest controls and technology. We recommend the use of manufacturers' own controls where possible, as they have been designed to work together to give optimum efficiency and comfort. We also ensure that your system water quality is of the highest standard, as it has a substantial effect on its efficiency and reliability. A thorough powerflush is always included in our boiler installations to ensure a clean and efficient system.
