Need Help Choosing A Boiler For Your Newton Le Willows Home?

If you’re thinking about having a new boiler installed in your Newton Le Willows home, then it’s important you know the basics about the types of boiler. That way, you can make an informed choice. The type of boiler impacts on how much energy you use.

There are three main types to consider when choosing the best boiler for your Newton Le Willows home:

• Combination (combi) boilers
• Conventional boilers
• System boilers

There are not many differences between system and conventional boilers, so we will only cover the differences between conventional and combi boilers.

Newton Le Willows Home Combi Boilers

Combi boilers are the most popular type in the region. They are a good option for many Newton Le Willows families, as they only heat the hot water that you use. 

• Hot water when you need it: water is heated straight from the mains.
• You don’t need a separate cold water tank or a hot water cylinder.
• Ideal for smaller Newton Le Willows houses or flats.
• Quicker to install compared to some other heating systems.
• If you use more than one hot tap simultaneously, it reduces the flow of water.
• Water can take a bit of time to warm up.

Newton Le Willows Home Conventional Boilers

Conventional boilers are also known as regular or heat-only boilers. They feed hot water to your radiators as well as the hot taps, from a supply in a hot water cylinder.

• Can send hot water to a number of taps at the same time.
• Ideal for larger Newton Le Willows home with more than one bathroom.
• You need the space for a hot water cylinder and a cold water tank in the loft.
• You need to choose when you want hot water and turn on the boiler beforehand. You can use a timer to heat the water in the cylinder, so you have hot water at pre-planned times.
• You can only get as much hot water as your cylinder holds. If the hot water runs out, you have to heat the supply in the cylinder again.
