🔥 The 3 Main Types of Boilers
🔹 Combi Boiler
Provides hot water on demand, no tank needed. Great for small to medium homes.
🔹 System Boiler
Uses a cylinder to store hot water. Ideal for homes with multiple bathrooms.
🔹 Conventional (Heat-Only) Boiler
Best for large homes with traditional systems and loft space for tanks.
