How Do Condensing Boilers Work?

Condensing boilers heat homes by burning gas or oil as fuel. When this is done, water vapour is released as a by-product and instead of being wasted and released through the flue, a condensing boiler recovers this latent heat; passing it through their heat exchanger which then cools and condenses it back into a liquid form (i.e. condensate). This heat is then used to help warm up the cool water that returns from your radiators.

Advantages of a Condensing Boiler

In 2005, it became compulsory for all new gas boilers installed in the UK to be condensing; this was introduced to reduce the nation’s impact on the environment. Advantages of condensing boilers include:

 

Energy-efficiency

Designed to deliver quality central heating with reduced energy wastage, condensing boilers are designed to be highly energy-efficient.

Designed to be environmentally-friendly

Condensing boilers work to lower greenhouse gas emissions, potentially making them more environmentally-friendly than a non-condensing boiler.

Economical to run

By allowing less energy to be wasted, an energy-efficient condensing boiler could help you save up to £200 on your energy bills**.

Which condensing boiler do I need in my home

Condensing boilers come in a range of different sizes, so it could be difficult to figure out which option is best for your home. In order to select a suitable boiler, you should first find out the kW output your home requires. A boiler’s kW output dictates its ability to cope with your heating and hot-water demands; it will usually depend on the number of radiators and bathrooms you have in your home.

Here’s some examples of property types and kW outputs that may be suitable:

24-27kW 1-2 bedroom, 10 radiators, 1 bathroom
28-34kW 3-4 bedroom, 15 radiators, 1-2 bathroom
35-42kW 4+ bedroom, 20 radiators, 2+ bathroom
