Central Heating Plymouth

Although both combi and conventional boilers provide central heating systems, there are some major differences.

Combi boilers can be advantageous in homes or offices because they do not need a hot water tank and therefore free up space. On the other hand, if you have the space for a cylinder-shaped hot water tank then you will benefit from the energy-saving of direct hot water and the ability to store hot water for bathing.

Even new boilers require repair and maintenance! For example, miniscule leaks in a non-serviced boiler can cause the pressure to drop. A qualified engineer from MSH’s Plymouth team can repair issues quickly and professionally.

Most of our customers choose to have gas central heating systems because it saves a lot of money in comparison to electricity and oil systems. The savings will only increase as the technology behind gas boilers becomes more advanced.

However, choosing gas means our customers will need to be connected to the gas grid, which is an expensive and lengthy process. If your gas boiler isn’t regularly serviced then this can add to the expenses incurred.

Here at MSH Plumbing & Heating, we understand how difficult it can be to choose your heating system, so we’re happy to provide advice on the most cost-effective solution to meet your needs.

Do you want to keep your house or office off the gas grid? Then you should choose electric!
It may be more expensive on a monthly basis but you won’t incur any up-front costs of getting connected to the grid. Electric systems also require some planning: they aren’t immediately responsive, so you’ll have to schedule them to pre-heat your morning. We’re happy to explain how best to maintain your system and help you to compare costs.
