Central Heating West Suffolk: What Do Boilers Do?

The boiler is the most important part of your central heating system. It can be best described as fire that has a constant supply of gas coming into it from a pipe that goes out to a gas main in the street. When you want to heat your home you either turn on a switch or if you have a thermostat the boiler will naturally turn on when it hits a certain temperature.

This causes the valve to open which lets the gas into the “burner”. Cold water within the boiler is heated and the steam from that heat is passed through the pipes which heat your radiators producing heat for your home. It’s important to make sure your boiler is maintained to ensure you have a constant supply of heat throughout the year. If you find the radiator in your home is not hot or certain rooms are hotter than others you may require a power flush of your central heating system. Our guide to power flushing your central heating system would give you a deeper insight to how it works.
