Boiler Installation From Gas Safe Engineers Across Plymouth
Choosing a boiler can be tricky. You want one that’s efficient and suits your home, business, and lifestyle. Below, you’ll find the main types, how they work, and their benefits.
Regular Boilers
Regular boilers, also known as traditional or heat-only boilers, suit homes with existing heating and hot water systems. They connect to a separate hot water cylinder. These boilers require a cold-water storage tank in the loft to supply the hot water cylinder and another tank to maintain the water level in the heating system.
If you have an older radiator system, a regular boiler may replace your current one effectively. Older systems often struggle with the higher water pressure from system or combi boilers.
These boilers work well for homes that use a lot of hot water at once. They are also great for homes with two or more bathrooms. If your water pressure is low, they offer a cost-effective solution. Plus, they are compatible with solar water heating systems, reducing your carbon footprint and energy costs.
System Boilers
System boilers need a cylinder to store hot water. However, their main heating and hot water parts are in the boiler. This makes installation faster and easier. Plus, there’s no loft tank required, so they work well in homes with limited loft space or those planning a conversion.
These boilers also work with solar water heating systems. This offers both environmental benefits and lower energy bills.
They are great for homes with multiple bathrooms. You’ll get a steady supply of hot water to several taps at once. Without a loft tank, you save space and reduce the risk of leaks or frost damage. This makes them economical to run, and the built-in parts allow for quicker, neater installation.
Combi Boilers
A combination or ‘combi’ boiler works as both a high-efficiency water heater and a central heating boiler in one compact unit. When you turn on a tap, combi boilers heat water directly from the mains. This means you won’t need a hot water storage cylinder or a cold-water storage tank in the roof.
Combi boilers are cost-effective and energy-efficient. They heat water instantly, rather than heating and storing it in a cylinder. Another benefit is that hot water is delivered at mains pressure. This allows for a powerful shower without needing a separate pump.
Combi boilers, like Worcester-Bosch, are perfect for smaller properties because of their compact size. They are ideal where there is little or no loft space. You gain more living space since there’s no hot water cylinder. Plus, you’ll have room for a loft conversion, as a combi boiler doesn’t require a water storage tank. There’s also less risk of loft pipework freezing, and less pipework usually makes installation cheaper too.
