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.
There are a
range of central heating boilers of all shapes and sizes, from small
and compact boilers that can fit in the space of a small kitchen
cupboard to larger, high-output monoliths.
Installing a new boiler, is something a member of the public
should do, but there are choices available when
installing a new boiler - these can save you money,
time and hassle.

What about boiler servicing ?
Often boilers need to be serviced annually in order to keep them running properly - this applies to all domestic gas boilers. Also, if you have a new boiler installed then this will also need an annual service simply because this is part of the warranty.
So, don't miss out on getting your boiler serviced - because your warranty and heating depend on it.
