Loco Home Retrofit CIC spoke to three heat engineering experts to discover why most so called ‘A’ rated condensing boilers are operating far below their intended efficiency. Homeowners can make a simple intervention to immediately improve efficiency by up to 15% and get more heat for their £££s. Watch the recording to learn why improvements to make gas boilers run efficiently can also get your home ready for a heat pump. Local co-operation can help ensure the decarbonisation transition in our heating systems will be more effective than the transition to condensing boilers.
With Dr Faye Wade (Edinburgh University), Nathan Gambling (BetaTeach) and Adam Chapman (Heat Geek).
CAUTION: homeowner interventions on boiler flow temperature is recommended ONLY for combi boilers providing instantaneous hot water. Where a hot water cylinder is present, involve a competent engineer.
