Many are opting for combi boilers which happen to be a boiler type that offers many advantages. In fact, these boilers offer leading edge advantages and their main benefit is that of allowing you to heat up water on demand. It is this ability that makes these boilers so popular. However, these boilers cannot be fitted into every home and so before choosing them you need to have a heating survey done. Combi boilers are gas fired and so require special installation. In fact, to fit these boilers does require special regulations which can best be interpreted by qualified heating installers. In case you plan on switching from an existing boiler to a combi, then you have to realize that there is no way that you can make a direct switch, because the modern variety of combis require more complicated installation procedures. Combi boilers may also give off a plume of smoke. This is because the exhaust gases from its flue are cooler and not very buoyant and so will condense much more quickly and this is why a plume of smoke might be seen. The problem with this smoke is that it can impact those who are passing by the boiler. Combi boilers are also referred to as combination boilers and are special because they are very efficient in condensing and are wonderful space savers as well. This is why such boilers are becoming the first choice of most home owners. This kind of boiler is not like other boilers because they do not require that you store water and this in turn means that this kind of boiler does not need to have a hot water cylinder in it. The term combi is used because such boilers are very efficient and they also double up as central heating units. People choose combi boilers because these boilers offer protection from abrupt water temperature changes. Since these boilers do not require much space they are also an ideal choice for those who live in homes which are on the smaller side. These boilers are also a perfect choice for those wishing to upgrade their existing boilers. Combi boilers are also a great option because they can heat up water almost instantly and will do so on demand. These boilers consist of compact units and since there is no need for water storage, they will take up minimal space. They are also very cost efficient and will heat up water for minimal cost to you. Furthermore, they supply water to your home at the same pressure as the pressure from the mains supply and since you also do not need to place any tanks on the roof of your home, you do not have to worry too much about complex installation problems. The downside to using combination boilers is that they can only heat up water on demand if there is sufficient supply of cold water. So, if many people are planning to shower simultaneously, it could mean that the boiler might fail in providing enough hot water. All in all, the benefits of using combination boilers far outweigh its one disadvantage and so it pays to go for these boilers.
