Another type of central heating boiler that is gaining in popularity due to its green credentials, depending upon the fuel used, is the solid fuel boiler. It can potentially be fuelled using the likes of wood, coal, large Anthracite nuts and manufactured smokeless fuels.
Such boilers are made by a number of manufacturers some of whom are household names. This ensures that the customer has a good choice of appliance at a competitive price.
Solid fuel boilers come in a variety of sizes with the capability of producing different levels of energy so can be used to provide central heating and hot water in a variety of different sized properties.
In the main, there are two types of boiler – the Batch feed boiler that needs to be “hand fired’ and the Gravity feed boiler that holds a supply of fuel above the firebox that periodically automatically drops onto the fire. These are capable of both heating water that is circulated around pipes into radiators in each of your rooms to warm up the room and heat up water that comes out of your taps.
If you are interested in purchasing and having a solid fuel boiler installed in your home or need one repaired then you will require the services of a registered HETAS engineer. He or she will be able to visit you at your home to discuss your requirements and advice you on the most suitable solid fuel boiler to purchase and also install the boiler and the rest of the central heating system for you.
