Condensing Boilers

Two decades ago, condensing boilers suffered from being over-complicated, and not as reliable as other kinds of domestic boilers. Thankfully, things have really moved on and improved considerably.

Did you know that the simple major difference between a condensing boiler and a non-condensing boiler is the efficieniency of the heat exchanger. Also, that the water condenses inside the boiler, and so just needs to be drained away periodically. This is a very rapid and easy thing to do.

What are the advantages of a condensing boiler ?

When it comes to what is so good about condensing boilers, the array of benefits include:

Energy efficiency

Condensing boilers are simply more energy efficient than older boilers, carrying an A or B scale SEDBUK rating – the highest possible. With modern heating controls, a condensing boiler could help to save you upto £250 a year in your energy bills, while if you already have heating controls fitted in your home to a regular boiler, replacing this boiler with a condensing boiler could save you up to £130.

Lower Fuel Bills

As condensing boilers are so energy efficient, they burn a lot less fuel to to get the same energy to supply to your home. This all means lower fuel bills, which is a relief with gas  prices rising all the time! Although condensing boilers can be expensive to purchase and install, there various schemes to help with this like new boiler pay monthly plans.
