Gas Boiler Engineers in Northampton covering:

Combi Boiler Services from Boilers Direct - Installations, Services and Maintenance Repairs

A combi boiler, or combination boiler, is a single unit that provides both heating and hot water directly from the mains. It heats water on demand, so there’s no need for a separate water tank or hot water cylinder. This makes it compact, efficient, and ideal for homes with limited space.

 

Combi boilers are best suited for smaller to medium-sized homes with one or two bathrooms. For larger homes with higher hot water demand or multiple bathrooms used simultaneously, a system or conventional boiler may be more appropriate.

Combi boilers are highly energy-efficient because they only heat water when needed, reducing energy waste. Many modern combi boilers have an efficiency rating of over 90%, making them an eco-friendly and cost-effective choice.

Yes, because combi boilers take water directly from the mains, they typically offer excellent water pressure. However, the pressure depends on your home’s mains water supply. If your water pressure is low, this could affect the boiler’s performance.

Combi boilers require regular servicing, typically once a year, to ensure they operate efficiently and safely. Routine maintenance helps prevent issues, extends the lifespan of the boiler, and ensures it remains under warranty if applicable.

Conventional Boiler Services from Boilers Direct - Installations, Services and Maintenance Repairs

A conventional boiler, also known as a regular or traditional boiler, uses a separate water tank and hot water cylinder to store and supply hot water. It heats water in advance, making it available for use when needed. This setup is ideal for homes with older heating systems or higher hot water demands.

Yes, conventional boilers are a great choice for large homes with multiple bathrooms. They can supply hot water to several taps at once without a drop in pressure, making them ideal for families or properties with high hot water usage.

Conventional boilers can be efficient, but their energy use depends on the insulation of the hot water cylinder and how well the system is maintained. Modern conventional boilers are designed to be energy-efficient, but pre-heating water can lead to some heat loss compared to on-demand systems like combi boilers.

Yes, conventional boilers need more space than combi or system boilers because they require a separate hot water cylinder and a cold water storage tank, usually located in the loft. This makes them less suitable for homes with limited space.

Conventional boilers need annual servicing to ensure they operate safely and efficiently. It’s also important to check the condition of the water tank and cylinder insulation to prevent heat loss and ensure the system runs smoothly. Regular inspections can help extend the boiler’s lifespan and maintain its performance.

System Boiler Services from Boilers Direct - Installations, Services and Maintenance Repairs

A system boiler is a heating system that heats water and provides central heating through a hot water cylinder. Unlike conventional boilers, it doesn’t require a cold water storage tank because it takes water directly from the mains, making it more space-efficient and modern.

Yes, system boilers are an excellent choice for larger homes with multiple bathrooms. They can supply hot water to several taps at once without compromising water pressure, making them ideal for families or properties with high hot water demands.

System boilers are highly efficient, particularly modern models with energy ratings above 90%. Since they work with insulated hot water cylinders, they minimize heat loss, ensuring hot water is readily available when needed while reducing energy waste.

System boilers require less space than conventional boilers because they don’t need a cold water storage tank. However, they do require a hot water cylinder, which is usually installed in an airing cupboard or utility room.

System boilers should be serviced annually to ensure they run efficiently and safely. Regular checks on the hot water cylinder and insulation are also important to prevent heat loss. Proper maintenance can extend the lifespan of the boiler and keep it performing at its best.
