Back Boilers
A back boiler is a small boiler fitted at the back of the hearth of an open fireplace to provide central heating and hot water. These are a simple yet effective method of central heating.
A gas fire front sits in front of the chimney and due to their simplicity, Back Boilers offer quality, reliability and a choice of fire fronts - from traditional to ultra modern.
Advantages
- Back boilers provide reliable heating and hot water.
- Allows you to draw hot water from more than one tap at the same time without affecting other outlets.
- If you already use a back boiler, you'll save money by sticking with the same system when the time comes to replace your boiler.
- Hidden out of the way and out of sight.
- British Gas and Baxi have recently launched the UK's first ever A Rated Back Boiler.
Disadvantages
- They need a lot of space - the boiler hidden behind your chimney, two tanks in the loft, and a cylinder in the airing cupboard.
- Few people will consider a back boiler unless they already have that system in place as other, newer systems can easily handle the demands of a large home without taking up as much space.
