Oil Fired Combi Boilers

One of the worst things that most families have to deal with in the winter is paying the heating bill. While everyone wants their home to be nice and toasty, the high cost of supplying heat often means a cooler than desired home.

Next to this, the only other thing that comes close is being in the middle of a shower and running out of hot water.

Today, there is an option that can take care of both problems at the same time simply by getting one of the modern oil fired combi boilers.

These boilers offer an energy efficient heat and virtually unlimited hot water all winter long.

What is a Combi Boiler?

A combi or combination boiler is exactly what its name suggests, a combination of a central heating boiler and a hot water heater. Currently, more than half of all condensing boilers installed in the US are combi boilers and they provide the beauty of a warm home with the ultimate luxury of limitless hot water. Because the unit serves as both a heater and hot water heater, you can expect to start seeing the savings on your utility bills almost as soon as you have one of these amazing new oil fired combi boilers installed.

This particular style of boiler is perfect if you really do not have a lot of extra space in your home for the old fashioned type of boiler that comes with a separate hot water storage tank. Oil fired combi boilers do all of the water heating inside of the boiler itself, so that you avoid the need for the extra tank. In most cases, your hot water tank can be eliminated, since these boilers can also be used as an on-demand hot water heater. Most of them also run on full mains water pressure so that while you might lose a little bit of water pressure as it goes through the boiler, you can still enjoy a piping hot power shower whenever you want.

Top Rated Combi Boilers

In the US, there are several different manufacturers of oil fired combi boilers, but one of them stands out in the crowd and has been rated as a “Best Buy” by Consumer Digest a leading consumer information magazine that is well known for its very accurate reviews of many different products.

Installing one of the latest and highly fuel efficient oil fired combi boilers in your home can definitely save you money on both your heating and hot water bills, while also paying itself off in a very short period of time.
