What Are Condensing Boilers?

Condensing boilers are highly efficient heating systems designed to extract as much heat as possible from the fuel they burn. Unlike traditional boilers that release hot gases into the atmosphere, condensing boilers capture the hot gases and use them to heat water in the heat exchanger. This process allows them to achieve up to 95% efficiency, making them an ideal choice for homeowners looking to save money on their energy bills.
