Oil fired boiler System or Regular-Heat Only boiler

With Oil-fired boilers hot water is stored in a cylinder. Hot water is stored and made available throughout the house, but it isn’t instantaneous; once hot water runs out it will need to heat up again.

Oil fired combination boiler

This type of boiler has the advantage of providing hot water on demand without requiring a water cylinder. Oil-fired boilers are slightly slower to instantaneously heat water than their gas counterparts, so usually have a small built in storage tank and are better suited to smaller properties.

Condensing oil fired boilers

This is a highly energy-efficient boiler which captures heat from the flu and re-uses it, which is excellent news for your fuel bills.

It is a requirement that all new gas boilers installed are condensing boilers, while non-condensing oil boilers are still available there is no practical benefit in using them.
