A combi boiler provides central heating for your home and heats water in one compact size unit.
Hot water – They don’t require a water storage tank; instead, water comes directly from the mains. It gets heated in the secondary boiler’s heat exchanger and delivered directly to the tap. It only heats the water when you need it.
Central heating – When hot water is not needed, they heat your home, allowing water to flow from the primary heat exchanger through your central heating radiators or under floor heating pipes.
Power – Combination boilers are available in different sizes and heat outputs, making them suitable for small properties like small studio flats and large family homes with multiple bathrooms.
Regulations – In April 2018, Building Regulation, known as “Boiler Plus,” was introduced, meaning that all boiler installations must include a timer and room thermostat. Also, combination boiler installations must have one of the following extra energy efficiency measures:
– Flue gas heat recovery systems
– Weather Compensation
– Load Compensation
