What type of new boiler should I choose?
Understand the advantages and disadvantages of the three main types of boilers and find the one that's right for your home.
Combi boilers.
These are great if you live in a smaller home. They don’t need a separate hot water cylinder or cold water storage tank, so they could easily fit into a cupboard and don’t take up any of your valuable space under the stairs or in the loft (for example).
Regular boilers.
If you often use hot water around your home, then a regular - or “condensing” - boiler is probably best for you. They can take up more room than a combi as they often come with a cold water tank as a kind of back up but you’ll have a plentiful supply of water ready to be heated regardless of water pressure or any other issues.
System boilers.
Does your home have more than one bathroom? Then a system boiler is a good choice. They’re like a condensing boiler but with a large tank for storing extra hot water. Again, they take up more room than a combi boiler, but you have a constant supply throughout your home when you need it.
