I could tell you everything there is to know about central heating in this article, but that may take some time, so for now we’ll go back to basics.
Boilers
If you have central heating in your home then you will also have a boiler. You can have single boilers or combi boilers and both do the same principle job of generating the heat for your home, but combi boilers do a little bit more, and they also heat the water. Combi boilers are great because they are the modern alternative to the old and slow boilers of yesteryear. Buy a combi boiler today and you’ll be pleased to hear that they will last you a long time.
Radiators
You will find that the radiators play an integral part in keeping your home warm. Without a radiator in the room, the room would be freezing cold. Don’t forget that your radiator can also be used to help you check if something isn’t quite right with the central heating system. No heat from the radiator means there is a fault. You never know, it could be something to do with the radiator or the boiler.
