Central Heating Systems
As you are no doubt aware, a central heating system provides heat in your property with this emanating from one source such as a boiler. There are a number of types but the three main ones are: –
- Wet heating – This typically involves hot water being passed through pipes into radiators that are usually contained within every room in your home. The water is heated by the boiler that is fuelled by the likes of gas or oil.
- Storage heating – A storage heater in each of your rooms contains bricks that are able to store up a great deal of heat. The bricks are heated by electricity during the night and the warmth is then used periodically in the day.
- Warm air heating – Gas is typically used as fuel in a boiler to heat up air that is then circulated around your property and released from ducts in your rooms that may be contained in either the floor, walls or ceiling.
