If you are considering a new boiler, the first thing you will have to decide, is what type of replacement boiler to choose. An N9 Plumber is qualified to work on all systems. Here are some pointers to help you with the decision: Fuel Type is a thought as most of the homes in the UK have a gas heating system that uses a gas boiler, however for an estimated 4.3million homes that are not connected to the UK’s gas network, there are some alternatives, like an oil boiler, liquid petroleum gas or even an LPG boiler. Maybe a wood burning stove with a fitted back boiler. The Boiler Type is critical, so decide if you want something like a combination (or combi boiler), which supplies heat for your radiators and domestic hot water as required, or perhaps a heat-only boiler, that is connected to a hot water storage system Or, you could ask a professional installer like N9 Plumbers for their opinion. The Boiler Efficiency, if you have gas central heating will be responsible for about 60% of your property’s CO2 output. This fact will make your boiler choice a real priority if you want good energy efficiency and greener credentials. Boiler Heating Controls will give you the influence over your heating system to say exactly when the heating and at what temperature it will operate. Good control is a great way to manage the cost of your heating system as you can make sure that the heating is only working in the rooms and at the times you want.
