2 What you should know about your heating system
Why should you become more familiar with your
heating system?
Advanced heating systems offer many functions for
saving energy without sacrificing comfort. Getting to
know this heating technology may appear daunting at
first, but after a short while you will recognise the
advantages you can gain from a heating system that is
set up to meet your personal requirements. The more
you are aware of the options offered by your heating
system, the greater the benefit you will be able to draw
from it.
How does your heating system work?
Your heating system comprises the boiler with burner,
heating control unit, pipework and radiators. A DHW
cylinder or an instantaneous water heater heats the
water required for a shower, bath or washing your
hands. Subject to the way your heating system has been
installed, it can operate either purely as a central heating
system or together with a DHW cylinder. The important
thing is that the various components match each other.
The burner combusts fuel (e.g. gas or oil) and heats the
water inside the boiler. Using pumps, this hot water is
transported through the pipework to the consumers
(radiators, underfloor heating system, etc).
