What is a Conventional/Regular Boiler?A conventional boiler system can have two water tanks in the loft, a large 'cold water storage tank' and a small 'feed and expansion tank'. The 'cold water storage tank' draws water from the cold water mains to refill.
Water from the storage tank feeds cold water down to the cylinder (normally in the airing cupboard). The condensing central heating boiler will heat the cylinder, this then enables the cylinder to release gallons of hot water to taps throughout the house. A pump will also circulate hot water via the pipes to the radiators.
Conventional, or, regular boiler systems tend to take up much more room in your property due to the need for extra multiple tanks and pipework. By having extra tanks in the loft, you also run the risk of water damage if the loft were ever to flood. By comparison, a combi boiler contains all of these features in to one single unit, which is making them extremely popular.
Faster flow rates of a combi boiler which allow for better multi-tap operation. If the system fails, you will also have the back-up from an electric immersion system to keep hot water available.
Due to the nature of the system, you will need to have space for multiple water storage tanks in your loft. The water will also take time to heat and is not instantanious.
With a comventional, or, regular system, there are generally more pieces of equipment required for an installation. If you are just thinking of replacing your current regular boiler, then the cost will not be too diss-similar from a system boiler.
With so many brands out there, it's often difficult to choose the right combi boiler with the best reputation. Every manufacturer states claims to being the greatest, but, which ones truly do shine through?
If your current boiler has broken down unexpectedly and you're going to struggle to stomach the cost of a brand new one at short notice, finance options are becoming extremely popular.
It's like buying a car, you spread the payments over a period of time and this can be as little as £17 per month. Just like a new car, your new boiler will carry a warranty of up to 10 years, so you can rest assured that you'll benefit from a reliable heating system for many years to come.
I needed to replace my old Worcester combi boiler for a more modern equivalent. Three companies got in touch, I got my quotes and I managed to secure a great price.

A friend of mine told me about the website when my old boiler started to leak. I got my quotes as promised and ended up taking out a finance option to stomach the cost.
