Condensing or combination boiler?
We often get asked this by householders who have got a little confused, perhaps it is because they do not fit boilers every day. It’s best to think of ‘High efficiency boilers’ as a better description of ‘condensing boilers’. Therefore the various types of boiler have not changed, you can still get a; • Conventional boiler (just heats water, you need a separate hot water cylinder, pump, etc) • System boiler (as per conventional but has a pump built in and a few other bits) • Combination boiler (heats hot water as you use it, one box solution, no cylinder etc) Nowadays, they all have to be a High Efficiency version to meet Building Regulations. Therefore you can get ‘condensing’ derivates of all the above.
