What Size Of Boiler Is Suitable For Your Newton Le Willows House

What size combi boiler do you need in your Newton Le Willows house? Choosing the right boiler can be a tricky task. It is best to consult with a Heating Engineer for advice, but it is good to have an idea of what you need beforehand so you can budget for it. Here is our guide.

What size boiler do I need for my Newton Le Willows house?

Combi boilers come in three sizes, small, medium and large.

Most Newton Le Willows flats and smaller homes (those that have up to 10 radiators and one bathroom) will only need a 24 – 27kw Boiler.

For medium or large houses with 3 or 4 bedrooms, up to 15 radiators, and one bathroom (and perhaps an ensuite) a 28-34kw Boiler will usually be adequate.

The largest combi boilers –rated at 35kw – 42kw – are best for houses with 16 or more radiators and more than two bathrooms.

For Newton Le Willows families that have a demand for lots of hot water, the more powerful boilers (with a higher kW rating) will be able to give a better hot water flow rate when multiple rooms all need hot water at the same time.

Combi boilers struggle to cope with more than one shower running simultaneously. If you are going to need to feed multiple showers, then a system boiler or switching one shower to an electric one may be better.

What is a Newton Le Willows House Combi boiler?

A combi boiler supplies heat for your radiators and also your hot water taps. Water is heated on demand from the mains as you turn on the taps.

A combi boiler, therefore, does not need a loft tank or a hot water storage cylinder. Because the water Is heated right from the mains as it goes through the boiler, your water pressure will be higher.
