Condensing boilers are the most energy efficient Central Heating boilers on the market today. They achieve this high level of efficiency by removing the heat from the fuel it is burning and also cooling the products of combustion, which are normally wasted up the flue, so much so that the water vapour in them turns into liquid. This happens at around 55°C. For a boiler to cool the flue products this much, it has to have a larger, more efficient heat exchanger than traditional boilers read more...

Heat is widely available in the ground, air and water around your house. These natural sources of heat are constantly replenished by the sun. A heat pump system will harness free and renewable energy sources for heating your house and supplying hot water at a very low cost. The role of the heat pump is to ‘pump up’ heat from a low temperature source, for example the ground under your lawn and release it at a higher temperature into your central heating system read more...

Modern woodchip and pellet boilers retrieve the wood fuel automatically from the storage area and burn it, which meets high environmental standards. Modern boilers use 90% of the energy contained in the wood for heating, ensuring a very high efficiency, similar to that of a good oil and gas boiler. Selecting the right capacity for the boiler is very important if its operation is to be economical and trouble free. A-Rated Energy can help you in this process read more...
