A commercial boiler is a large, industrial heating system that provides hot water or steam for a commercial building. Commercial boilers are typically more expensive than residential boilers, but they can also provide more heat and hot water.
The average cost of a commercial boiler ranges from £6,000 to £10,000, depending on the size, type, and fuel source of the boiler. Other factors that can affect the cost include the cost of installation, the cost of permits and inspections, and the cost of maintenance and repairs.

Factors That Affect the Cost of a Commercial Boiler
Here are some of the factors that affect the cost of a commercial boiler:
Size: The size of the boiler will determine how much heat or hot water it can produce. Larger boilers are more expensive than smaller boilers.
Type: There are two main types of commercial boilers: hot water boilers and steam boilers. Hot water boilers are more common in commercial buildings. Steam boilers are used in some industries, such as manufacturing and food processing.
Fuel source: Commercial boilers can be powered by gas, oil, or electricity. Gas boilers are the most common type of commercial boiler. Oil boilers are more expensive than gas boilers, but they can be a good option for businesses that are located in areas where gas is not available. Electric boilers are the least expensive type of commercial boiler, but they may not be a good option for businesses that have high electricity rates.
Installation: The cost of installing a commercial boiler can vary depending on the size and type of boiler, as well as the complexity of the installation.
Permits and inspections: In some cases, businesses may need to obtain permits and inspections before installing a commercial boiler. The cost of permits and inspections will vary depending on the local government.
Maintenance and repairs: Commercial boilers require regular maintenance and repairs. The cost of maintenance and repairs will vary depending on the type of boiler and the frequency of maintenance.
