Combi Boiler
Combi Boiler, or combination boiler, is a kind of boiler that can provide hot water or heating directly from the boiler. This type of boiler is a popular choice among the homes in UK because it’s space saving. It is a water heater and a heating boiler combined in one unit and it doesn’t require any hot water cylinder.
Aside from its ability to save space at home, there are other reasons why you should consider getting one.
- You can protect yourself from sudden change in water temperature because combi boilers have thermostat controls.
- It is the most efficient type of boiler.
- It is able to heat water on demand so you don’t have to wait before you get your hot water.
Most Common Combi Boiler Problems
Combi boilers nowadays have a condensation pipe functions to keep the water away from the boiler. Sometimes because of the cold water, the water inside the condensation pipe can freeze resulting to a boiler breakdown.
Broken thermostat is another common problem especially to those older combi boilers.
Sometimes radiators do not heat up as they should. When this happens, check the radiator’s controls first to see if they are turned on.
Lack of hot water resulting from broken thermostats or trapped airlocks. Call a gas safe engineer right away so this can be addressed.
Leaks. When a lot of water is leaking, turn the water off and run the taps on so you can empty the remaining water in the boiler system. Then immediately call a gas safe engineer to have this checked.
