Condensing Boilers

At our Clearwater Plumbers, we specialise in installing condensing Boilers. What sets condensing Boilers apart is their ability to capture and reuse heat that older Boilers would release into the air. 

Here’s how they work: When gas or oil burns in the Boiler, it produces heat and water vapour. In traditional Boilers, this vapour and valuable heat escapes through the flue. But in a condensing boiler, this vapour cools down and turns back into liquid. This process releases extra heat, which is used to warm your home. This means less energy is wasted, making condensing Boilers extremely efficient. With a condensing Boiler, you’ll save on your energy bills while enjoying a warm and comfortable home.

Fuel Types

Most of the condensing Boilers we fit are powered by gas. Gas is popular because it’s widely available and typically cheaper than other fuels. It’s also cleaner-burning, making gas Boilers a more environmentally friendly option. But we understand that not every home has access to a gas network. That’s where oil and LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) Boilers come in.

Oil Boilers are an effective solution for homes without gas connectivity. They require a storage tank for the oil, which we can install and maintain. Though oil prices fluctuate, oil Boilers are known for their reliability and high efficiency.

For homes in remote locations, LPG Boilers are an excellent alternative. LPG, a mixture of propane and butane, is stored in tanks and performs similarly to natural gas. While LPG is generally more expensive than natural gas, it’s a viable option for those without access to the gas grid.

No matter your fuel needs or location, our range of condensing Boilers ensures you have an efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly heating solution for your home.

Types Of Boiler

Our range of condensing Boilers includes three main types to suit every home’s needs: Combi, System, and Regular Boilers.

Combi Boilers, short for ‘combination’, are popular for smaller homes and apartments. They are compact and efficient, providing hot water on demand directly from the mains without needing a storage tank. This means you get hot water instantly and save space, as there’s no requirment for a separate hot water cylinder or cold water tank.

System Boilers work well for homes with more than one bathroom. They use a hot water storage cylinder but don’t require a tank in the loft, saving space. System Boilers can provide a constant hot water supply to multiple taps at once, making them ideal for larger households.

Regular Boilers, also known as traditional Boilers, are best suited for homes with an existing traditional heating and hot water system. They use a hot water cylinder and a cold water tank, ideal for homes with low water pressure or multiple bathrooms. 

Each type of Boiler has unique advantages, and we’re here to help you choose the perfect one for your home’s specific requirements and layout.

Sizes Of Boiler

Choosing the right size Boiler is crucial for efficiency and comfort in your home. Boilers come in various sizes, usually measured in kilowatts (kW). The size needed depends on the number of bathrooms, radiators, and the overall size of your property.

Small homes with one bathroom typically need a smaller Boiler, around 24 to 27 kW. These are perfect for efficiently meeting the lower heating and hot water demands of smaller spaces.

Medium-sized homes, usually with up to three bedrooms and one or two bathrooms, may require a Boiler in the range of 28 to 34 kW. This size balances the need for more hot water and heating capacity without wasting energy.

A bigger Boiler, typically 35 kW and above, is necessary for larger homes with several bedrooms and bathrooms. These high-capacity Boilers are designed to handle higher demands for hot water and heating.

Makes Of Boiler

We offer a wide selection of top-quality Boiler brands to suit all needs and budgets. Each brand has its unique features and strengths. All Boilers have a warranty of up to 12 years (depending on make and model).

Why Install A New Boiler?

Here are a few reasons why you may consider installing a new Boiler.

  • Energy Efficiency: New Boilers are significantly more energy-efficient than older models. They use less fuel to produce the same amount of heat, which results in lower energy bills. This efficiency also reduces your carbon footprint, making your home more environmentally friendly.
  • Improved Heating Control: Modern Boilers offer improved control of overheating your home. With programmable thermostats and smart controls, you can easily adjust settings to match your lifestyle, ensuring comfort while saving energy.
  • Reliability and Safety: New Boilers are more reliable and lower the risk of breakdowns, saving you from unexpected repair costs and inconvenience. They also have improved safety features, making them safer for your home or rental property.
  • Warranty and Peace of Mind: New Boilers typically come with long warranties, offering peace of mind.

Boiler Replacement VS Upgrading To A Different Type Of Boiler

When changing your Boiler, you have two options: a straight Boiler replacement or upgrading to a different type. UnBoilernding the difference between these two will help you make the best choice for your home.

Boiler Replacement 

This is a like-for-like swap, where we replace your old Boiler with a new Boiler that is the same type and in the same location. If your current Boiler type still suits your needs, and you’re happy with its performance and heating output, this might be the right choice. It’s usually the simplest and most cost-effective option, as it involves less work in installing and modifying your existing heating system.

Upgrading To A Different Type Of Boiler

Depending on your needs, this involves changing to a different type of Boiler, whether a Combi, System or Regular Boiler. If your heating demands have changed, this option is worth considering – for example, if you’ve extended your home or desire more efficiency or space-saving benefits. Upgrading to a different type of boiler manager requires more significant installation work, like altering pipework or adding new components. Still, it can offer greater long-term benefits regarding efficiency, space-saving, and meeting your heating and hot water needs.

Whether you’re considering a straightforward replacement or upgrading to a different type of Boiler, our team provides expert advice. We assess your current system, listen to your needs, and advise on the best choice for your home, ensuring optimal comfort and efficiency.
