Thoughts on Combi Boilers
Most people know what a hot water heater does.
The majority of the population knows why they need a hot water heater in their homes.
There are very few people that do not know what a central heating system is.
Most of the population of the United Kingdom has some type of central heating system installed in their homes.
Combi boilers are hot water heaters that also do the work of a central heating system.
Combi boilers are perfect appliances for smaller homes and apartments.
The combi boilers need less space than standard hot water heaters need.
There is no need for an attic to store a water tank in when you use these newer devices to heat your water and control your temperature.
This is perfect for small places that require creative ways of storing items.
Combi boilers can generally fit into a small cabinet in the kitchen area of the home.
They use internal heat exchangers to heat the water that is piped directly in from the main water supply.
It takes only a few seconds for water to enter the device and be heated and transported to the area of the home that requested it.
People are often astounded by the fact that as long as the unit is firing they have an endless supply of hot water.
The older water heaters limited you to a certain number of gallons of hot water before you had to wait for more to be created.
Combi boilers are dependable ways to heat your home and provide adequate water for bathing and cleaning purposes.
You must however make certain that you read and understand the specifications for the amount of water pressure and water flow that you will need for the device to work correctly in your home.
If your water pressure is inadequate you will need to use the standard style water heater.
With the standard water heater the water is pumped into a tank to be heated and held so the amount of pressure you have will matter very little.
Combi boilers do not do well in areas that have hard water.
Hard water contains high levels of calcium salts in it.
Because of these elevated calcium salt levels the heat exchangers inside the appliances quickly become corroded and clogged.
This causes malfunctions and costly repairs and replacements.
If you have hard water where you live you cannot have one of these devices unless you treat the water to reduce the amount of calcium salts that are in it.
Larger homes may require more than one of the units to be installed in order for the home to be kept the perfect temperature and have adequate supplies of hot water.
Some people complain that when two or more demands are made on the device at one time the appliance cannot keep up with the amount of hot water needed.
This can be said of all types of hot water supplies and is not a major concern to most people considering this type of unit.
