Combi Boiler Information – Bosch Combination Boiler

A combi (or combination boiler) is a compact and highly efficient unit giving all the heating and hot water you need, with significant savings on running and installation costs.

Advantages:

· Excellent water pressure for shower (also hot and cold water at all outlets).
· No need for a tank in the loft (so no risk of freezing or flooding).
· No need for a cylinder or the various pipework found with other boilers (saves space and money).
· Ideal for dwellings without that much loft space (i.e. bungalows, apartments and flats).

Disadvantages:

· Higher system pressure which may seek out leaks.
· No tank so no extra water in emergencies.

A condensing combi boiler is more efficient due to its ability to extract more heat from the flue gases normally lost to the environment through the flue system.

Energy Saving Tip:

Instead of buying traditional light bulbs, buy Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs) instead. This will save a lot of energy and can save money in the long run.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
