A condensing boiler is an excellent choice for heating water as well as heating the home. They minimize heat loss and utilize the water's heat by burning gas, to obtain the maximum efficiency. They recycle waste gases, thus doubling the use of the original fuel. Their high qualities should be compared to the Combi and System boilers before making a selection. With ordinary boilers, gas is simply goes through the heat exchanger, burns, heats the water and is then dispelled into the atmosphere.. With a condensing boiler, there is a second heat exchanger. After going through the first one, gas fumes are formed. Those fumes go through the second exchange and are recycled to produce more heat. In other words, one is getting twice the amount of energy from the incoming source that would be possible with an ordinary boiler. As the result of these features the boiler has a lower workload and is able to turn off and on to keep the correct temperature. This means a lot less effort to produce heat and hot water, saving wear and tear. It is able to monitor the temperature outside the building, as well, to compare it with that of the day before. In this way they are able to estimate how long it will take to warm the house up. The condensing boiler comes in various sizes, while the combi is small and works completely differently. With the Combi there is no need for hot water storage tanks as it combines a water and central heating system. The System boiler depends on stored hot water in a special cylinder, with components built in, running hot water from the boiler to the radiators. Condensing boilers are considered the most efficient of the boilers used in the UK today. Condensing boilers are very popular due to their various features, sizes and their high efficiency. They are available in models that use gas, LPG and oil for fuel. By their ability to reclaim heat, that would otherwise be lost to the environment, they add to the over-all concept of a 'green planet' by reducing carbon dioxide emissions going into the atmosphere. When considering the right kind boiler, condensing, combi or system, for one's home, an expert should be consulted. This professional will be able to analyze the situation and determine what kind of boiler will work best. Things such as how many windows, high ceilings, and other things will be considered. Whether you live in a soft water or a hard water area makes a difference in the kind of boiler chosen, as well as the heat exchanger. This is necessary because limescale accumulates and must be removed periodically. Northern Gas Heating - the UK's local supplier of new Condensing boilers.
