Boiler types

System boiler
A system boilers are also called sealed-system boilers is a boiler that directly heats your central heating system and hot water for a storage cylinder. The hot water is then distributed to the radiators and hot water cylinder from the system boiler through the heating system. A system boiler work well in most average-sized homes, they deliver heat quickly but not instantly, the hot water can run out and you’ll have to wait for it to reheat. In addition, there is also some heat loss through the primary pipework from the boiler to the hot water storage vessel.

Combi boiler
Combination boilers or Combi boilers are the most popular kind in small residences like apartments or studios. A Combi boiler doesn’t include a storage tank or cylinder. You can pick either a gas or electric combi boiler. A combi boiler work well in low-occupancy residences, such as a home with a couple and one small child. It provide unlimited heat and hot water when you need. The water pressure might be reduced if you use multiple taps at once.

Standard boiler
Standard boilers are also known as conventional boilers or regular boilers, these have both a cylinder and a tank. The water is heated via cast iron heat exchangers and combination boilers can supply gallons of hot water at one time. Once the stored hot water runs out, there may be a delay in supply as the tank refills and send hot water out to taps as necessary. Standard boilers are ideally suited to homes that already have an older central heating system since there will be no need for lots of changes to the pipework. However, it’s necessary to insulate thoroughly unless hot water cylinder can lose a lot of heat.
