- Provide on-demand hot water without the need for a storage tank.
- More energy-efficient as they only heat water when needed.
- Ideal for homes with limited space.
- Reduce standby energy loss.
Combi Boilers:
- Combine heating and hot water functions into one compact unit.
- Perfect for smaller homes or apartments.
- Provide consistent hot water and space heating simultaneously.
- Highly efficient, reducing energy bills.
