Hot Water & Central Heating

Now, householders are looking more closely at their energy use, and the Government has brought out Building Regulations (gas fired in 2005, oil fired in 2007) making the use of high efficiency boilers mandatory replacements in domestic use. In order to achieve the level of efficiency mandated by the Government, it is necessary for the new boilers to partially condense the fuel. Water vapour (always present in burning fuel) is encouraged to condense against the receptacle (called a heat exchanger) containing your central heating water.
