Plumber In Worthing Publishes Guide on Home Heating for Residential Consumers

Online, July 1, 2013 (Newswire.com) - As the name suggests, the home heating guide is directed at consumers looking to get their head around home heating. The guide covers everything from hiring a gas engineer to choosing a boiler and also contains some decent tips on reducing a household's energy bill.

"Punctual, tidy & efficient best describes the service. I would recommend them to anyone". -- E. Cloake

All new boilers have to be 'A' rated by law. This means that they will be at least 90% efficient. Or to put it another way the boiler must convert at least 90% of the energy from the gas it burns into heat.

A 20 to 30 year old boiler, or a poorly maintained boiler, will be closer to 60% efficient. Old boilers were designed when natural gas was cheap, plentiful and greenhouse gases weren't an issue. Older boilers produce the poisonous gas carbon monoxide in much larger quantities because they are far less fuel efficient and they burn a much larger quantity of gas for a given amount of useful heat.
