Gas Boilers
Most boilers run on mains gas, though in areas in Scotland that are not connected to the main supply, the boiler can run on oil, bottled LPG, coal or wood. Mains gas is usually the cheapest, and it has the lowest carbon dioxide emissions, apart from wood. There are two main types of gas boiler:
Conventional or regular gas boilers provide hot water when programmed to and then stored in a hot water tank until needed. Your flow of water will never diminish when using multiple taps at the same time which is a great benefit for families in Glasgow. Regular boilers come with a cold water tank and a hot water cylinder and tend to suit larger properties with more than one bathroom. The Glasgow Boiler Service can fit an electrical immersion heater as a back up to your conventional boiler; this will act as a security backup in case your boiler has a fault. With a regular boiler, once the hot water has been used up you will need to wait for it to heat up once it’s run out.
Combination boilers are Scotland’s most popular type of boiler and provide hot water whenever needed and does not have a hot water tank. Combi boilers are space savers as there’s no tank taking up extra room in your home, with space being a paramount to homeowners in Glasgow today this can be an appealing choice, especially if you live in a flat. Combi boilers are often quicker to install in comparison to regular boilers, this is because they have fewer parts. When using a combi boiler, the water may take a few seconds to heat up, though this is entirely normal. The flow may be affected if using multiple taps at the same time, and the water pressure in your home will also affect the flow of water from your gas combination boiler.
Properties in Glasgow that don’t have a boiler usually use electric storage heaters. This type of heating system heat up overnight using cheaper off-peak electricity known as economy 7 or economy 10 and disperse the heat during the day. The specific day and night periods on an Economy 7 or 10 meter vary between different regions and at different times of the year. Usually, the night usage for an economy 7 meter is recorded between 11:30pm and 6:30am in the winter and 12:30am to 7:30am in the summer. Your supplier will be able to tell you the exact charging times specific to Glasgow electric heating.

LPG boilers they are extremely efficient and give a great return on every unit of energy, modern LPG boilers can expect an efficiency of 90% or more.

Electric Storage Heaters
If you have storage heaters, you will probably have a hot water cylinder heated by one or two immersion heaters. Electric storage systems are most common in flats and households that aren’t connected to the mains gas supply. The installation of electric storage heaters tends to be easier than that of gas-fired heating systems and they also enjoy little to no maintenance costs.
Basic storage heaters have two simple controls, input which controls how much heat is stored and output which controls the temperature of the room.
A higher output setting will release the heat into the room faster and should be used only when at home for maximum benefit.Automatic storage heaters have an inbuilt sensor which monitors the temperature during the night time charging period. Once the household has found the settings that keep them comfortably warm the system will charge to match this, without you having to program it.Fan assisted storage heaters blow warm air from the bottom of the system into the room, some have a boost setting which will allow the room to heat faster when needed.Combination storage heaters have a separate convector that can run separately on the day rate. The convector has its own heating controls and is ideal to use in winter when your home needs a top up of heat. Using this constantly will result in higher bills, however.
