Benefits of upgrading from a non-condensing boiler to a new combi boiler:
Under the ECO4 scheme we have funding available to upgrade your old none condensing boiler / back boiler BBU. (Generally if the boiler is pre 2005 then it should be a none condensing boiler).
Increased Efficiency: Combi boilers are known for their improved efficiency compared to traditional non-condensing boilers. They can extract more heat from the combustion process, resulting in lower energy consumption and reduced heating bills.
Space Saving: Combi boilers combine water heating and central heating into a single unit, eliminating the need for a separate hot water cylinder or cold water tank. This saves space in your home, especially if you have limited utility space.
On-Demand Hot Water: Combi boilers heat water directly from the mains supply, providing instant hot water whenever you need it. There's no waiting for a cylinder to heat up, making them convenient for households requiring immediate hot water.
Continuous Hot Water: With a combi boiler, you have a continuous supply of hot water as long as the boiler is functioning and there's a gas or electricity supply.
Reduced Carbon Emissions: Combi boilers are more environmentally friendly than non-condensing boilers because they produce fewer carbon emissions during operation.
Improved Heating Control: Many modern combi boilers come with advanced heating controls that allow for precise temperature and timing adjustments, optimizing energy usage and comfort.
Lower Maintenance Needs: Combi boilers generally require less maintenance compared to older non-condensing boilers, as they have fewer components prone to wear and tear.
Longer Warranty: New combi boilers often come with extended warranties, providing peace of mind against unexpected repair costs.
Upgrading to a new combi boiler can lead to enhanced efficiency, reduced energy costs, improved convenience, and a smaller environmental footprint. It's important to consider your specific heating and hot water needs before making a decision, and consulting with a professional heating engineer can help you choose the right boiler for your home.
