Combi vs system vs heat-only
Combi (all-in-one)
Instant hot water on demand, no cylinder. Best for 1 to 2 bathroom homes with one person showering at a time. Most common install in Leeds.
System
Separate hot water cylinder. Better for 2+ bathroom homes with simultaneous demand. Cylinder needs airing cupboard space.
Heat-only (regular)
Older-style with cold water tank in the loft plus cylinder. Being replaced in most modern installs. Still fine if you have gravity-fed showers you want to keep.
Which brand?
Our default recommendations:
- Best all-rounder: Worcester Bosch. Widely known, engineers available everywhere, strong warranty.
- Best efficiency: Vaillant. Slightly lower running cost due to modulating burner.
