Is a Combi Boiler Right for Your Household?

December 22, 2020

In order to understand what a combi, or combination, boiler is, first you need to have some basic knowledge of what a conventional boiler is and how it works.

 

How a Conventional Boiler Works

A conventional boiler uses a burner to heat water which is then circulated through your heating system to heat your home to a comfortable temperature. Normally, the job of heating water to use in your home for showering, washing dishes, etc. is done by a hot water heater; but a combi boiler is a combination water heater/boiler that heats water for both home use and heating. Combi boilers work well with in-floor heating systems and radiators for home heating.

 

How a Combi Boiler Works

A combi boiler uses condensing technology and is more efficient than having a boiler and a water heater. Combi boilers are also compact, wall mounted units so they do not take up a lot of space in your home. They supply your home with instant, on-demand hot water so you don’t have to wait around for your water tank to fill up and reheat, making combi boilers a good choice for people who often find themselves running out of hot water.

A combi boiler is more expensive to initially purchase and install than a conventional boiler. However, because combi boilers run more efficiently than conventional boilers, the money you save on monthly bills will add up and save you money in the long term.
