Helpful Guide

The products that are now on offer are highly efficient and can be very complicated. The following is a layman’s guide to a few general terms:

CONDENSING BOILER

This is a High Efficiency boiler which re-utilises the exhaust gases which normally would be wasted. They have been compulsory in England since June 2006. A condensing boiler is just the burner part and may be a Combination or Regular type.

COMBINATION BOILER

This is a self contained unit which heats the hot water instantaneously thus negating the need for cylinders, cold water supply or expansion tanks, separate pump or complicated controls.

REGULAR BOILER

This is a traditional type of unit which uses a cylinder to store water and usually has a cold water supply tank, expansion tank, separate pump and motorised valves to operate the controls.

SYSTEM BOILER

This is a Regular type of boiler but has an expansion vessel within it, thus deleting the expansion tank in the loft. It also houses it’s own pump.

BALANCED FLUE

All gas boilers now have fan assisted flues which bring air in from the outside and take the fumes directly to the atmosphere.

Modern condensing boilers have far less harmful NOX particles and are much cooler. This gives the effect that the flue is steaming but it is actually mainly water vapour which is seen.

PRESSURISED CYLINDER

A pressurised cylinder removes the need for a cold water supply tank and work on mains pressure, thus giving excellent water pressure, throughout the house, including Attics. They are usually made of stainless steel for longevity, highly efficient and heavily insulated so once heated the water may be switched off for long periods.

Some popular makes are Oso, Megaflow and Saturn but there are many more.

CONVECTOR RADIATORS

Until 1975 most radiators were just two flat pieces of steel, welded together with water channels between them. They were usually gun metal grey primer and had to be painted!

The first modernisation that I can remember was the Myson Supastyle which had convector fins welded to the back. This gave a heat out-put rise of 30% in a single and 50% in a double. They were in a good quality white primer and modern design. Today’s radiators are made to whatever the designers imagination can take them.

Myson have also been leaders of fan convectors which have water running though them but the heat is blown out by fans, thus allowing a large amount heat from a small area. Smiths fans follow the same idea and have some interesting products.
