Combi Boilers – Pros & Cons of Gas oilers

Combi boilers aka combination boilers, are very efficient condensing boilers that don't take up much room. They are now increasing popular due to their compact size and highly efficiency.


Combi Boiler


Combi boiler's are a unique kind of boiler because there's no need to store hot water - which means you don't need a hot water cylinder within an airing cupboard.



Why choose a combi boiler

They have in-built protection from rapid changes of water temperature while you are in the shower due to thermostat controls (most combi boilers have these controls and they often come as standard too).

If you don’t have much roof space for the installation of a different type of boiler, then a combi boiler is likely your best bet. Also, combi boilers are a very efficient boiler and they can heat water on demand.



Advantages of a combi boiler

The advantages of combi boilers are the monetary savings seen on the cost of hot water, plus the fact that you get water out of the taps or shower at the same pressure as if it was from the mains. Also because there are no tanks being placed in the roofing and so less pipe work to install. This results in a faster installation which can reducing initial costs as well. Also because combi's are so popular, boiler service costs should be relatively low whilst parts and boiler engineers really easy to find.
