LPG Boiler Installations in Cumbria With gas costs now higher than ever & rising every year it has
never made more sense to look at ways to reduce our fuel bills as much
as possible. One easy way of doing this is to replace your old boiler
with a new high efficiency condensing boiler. MCC Heating Services Ltd
will provide a safe boiler installation in Cumbria, South Lakes, Kendal and the surrounding area
What is a high-efficiency condensing boiler? Because
the flue gases leaving a condensing boiler are cool, they tend to
produce a noticeable mist or plume of water vapour around the flue
terminal itself (as they condense upon contact with the atmosphere),
especially under cold conditions. This is not a problem and in fact
indicates that the boiler is working as intended. However, consideration
should be given to boiler and flue location prior to installation so
that the plume will not be too close to neighbouring properties or
windows, doors and paths regularly used in the winter.
Condensing boilers offer tangible benefits by: Improving household efficiency thus reducing fuel bills. Condensing
boilers work on the principle of recovering as much as possible from
the heat which is normally expelled to the atmosphere through the flue
of a conventional (non-condensing) boiler. This is
accomplished by using secondary heat exchanger within the boiler which
maximises heat transfer from the burning fuel as well as recovering
useful heat which would normally be lost with the flue gases.
When
in condensing mode (for condensing boilers do not condense all the
time) the flue gases give up their "latent heat" which is then recovered
by the heat exchanger within the boiler. As a result the
temperature of the gases exiting the flue of a condensing boiler is
typically 50-60o C compared with 180-280o C in a current non-condensing
boiler. At the same time water or "condensate" is produced & this is
disposed of through a pipe to either a small soak away or foul water
drainage system (Not a septic tank).
Condensing boilers will
always have a much better operating efficiency than a conventional
non-condensing one, due to its larger and more efficient heat exchangers
. The benefits of condensing boilers speak for themselves. Contact Us Our
team are fully qualified and will provide the installation of any
boilers at a great price. The job will always be completed safely to
