Did you know that if every home in the United Kingdom installed and used an Energy-Efficient Heating System and High-Efficiency Boiler, then around three and half million homes could be heated from the amount of energy saved!
Installing an Energy-Efficient Heating System with the correct heating controls and a High-Efficiency Condensing Boiler can seriously reduce carbon emission and save around about £190 to £240 every year on heating bills; that's around a 40% saving from your fuel bill! If your current Boiler is more that 15 years old, then it is more than likely not Energy Efficient, and replacing it and installing a new High-Efficiency Condensing Boiler is definitely worthwhile and could save you up to a third on your overall heating bills!
The way High-Efficiency Condensing Boilers work is that they convert as much of the heat fuel as they possibly can by using either a larger heat exchanger or multiple heat exchangers inside the Boiler itself, attempting to waste and throw away a minimal amount; rather than standard Boilers that pump out the same amount heat fuel but use less overall due to the smaller heat exchanger within, resulting in the remaining unused fuel to be dispersed into the air and atmosphere, causing carbon emission and climate change!
Non-Condensing Boilers only actually use 78% of the fuel used for heating whereas High-Efficiency Condensing Boilers use an impressive 90% by retrieving lost fuel! That means that a total of 22% of unused fuel is wasted and just spewed back out into the air from standard Boilers, whereas only 10% is lost for Condensing Boilers!

To purchase your new High-Efficiency Condensing Boiler, contact a local CORGI registered installer if you have a Gas-Fire Boiler or OFTEC if you have an Oil-Fire Boiler!
