In the current economic climate people are constantly looking for new ways in which they can save money.  One such way of saving money is to install an energy efficient Combi boiler.

Combi – sometimes known as Combination – boilers are the most widely used type of boiler in the UK.  Over half of all new condensing boilers sold in Britain are Combi models.  This type of boiler combines a water heater and central heating system into a single unit.  Water is heated within the unit itself which means there is no need for a separate water tank.  In homes where space is limited this is ideal and since they are so compact they can often be hung conveniently on the kitchen wall.

Installing a Combi boiler in your own has a number of benefits.  Since they are highly energy efficient they are an effective way to reduce your central heating costs.  It is estimated that once installed a Combination boiler can save the average household up to 40% on their yearly energy bills.  As well as having a financial benefit by being energy efficient they are also good for the environment since they require less energy to run.  A Combi boiler can help to significantly reduce a household’s carbon footprint.

In the UK there are a number of makers of Combi boilers including Baxi, Vaillant and Worchester Bosch.  If you decide to replace your existing boiler with a Combi then you must ensure that it is installed by a Corgi registered engineer.  Doing so will give you the peace of mind of knowing that the boiler has been installed correctly and safely.
