Combi Condensing boilers

Combi Condensing Boilers provide the necessary heating for your central heating and hot water directly from the boiler itself. This type of boiler does not require hot water cylinders or cold storage tanks. Combi Condensing Boilers are often used in smaller properties where space is somewhat restricted, and a limited supply of hot water is required. These boilers are also energy efficient as water is heated instantly at the point of use, rather than being stored in a cylinder.

Another benefit of a Combi Condensing Boiler is that your water is delivered at mains pressure, therefore reducing the need for additional pumps, typically installed to increase shower pressure.

Conventional Condensing

(open vent boiler)

This type of boiler or heating system is by far the most common and we have been most used to seeing these in our homes over the past decades.  This boiler uses a typical system (a hot water cylinder, and cold water storage tank in the loft which feeds the hot water cylinder). There is also an additional tank that maintains the water level of the central heating system. If the house has a more traditional radiator system then this type of boiler may be the best option, as the increased water pressure from other boilers may be too much for the heating infrastructure.

These boilers are perfect for homes with two or more bathrooms, drawing hot water simultaneously from multiple taps in the property and are also a good option where water pressure is low. This type of boiler is also compatible with solar water heating systems.

Conventional Condensing system boiler

Sealed system boiler is an alternative name for this type of boiler, as the major heating components are built into the boiler itself. This speeds up the installation process with less parts, including no need for an external tank in the loft. Perfect for where there is little loft space.

Compatible with solar heating systems is another benefit of a Sealed System Boiler, and delivers great environmental and energy saving benefits.

This type of boiler is ideal for homes with more than one bathroom, and can deliver a good supply of hot water to as many taps as required simultaneously.

Another benefit is economy as Sealed System boilers can be very economical to run.

Why choose a Combination boiler?

A combination boiler delivers both central heating and instant hot water from one compact/tidy unit, thereby removing the need for a hot and cold water tank. Being the most popular boiler in the UK a combination boiler is ideal for properties with limited space. They can also be installed with minimal piping which helps keep installation costs down. A combination boiler can now also serve properties with more than one bathroom.

Why choose a System boiler?

These boilers are suited to properties with more than one bathroom or a higher demand for hot water. System boilers deliver central heating and require a hot water cylinder. These boilers generally come in many sizes, they also benefit from having the pump and controls integrated into the boiler casing, thus removing the space required in a loft for a feed and expansion tank.

Why choose a Conventional/Regular boiler?

Regular boilers, also known as conventional boilers are suited for properties with more than one bathroom or have a higher demand for hot water. A regular boiler delivers central heating and requires a hot water cylinder. Regular boilers are generally available in a variety of sizes and require more external space to house the pump and controls. They generally require a loft space in order to house the feed and expansion tank.
