講熱水爐:     關於熱水爐(關你暖事)

剛聽說英政府2022年4月開始補助更換Boiler, 津貼屋主7000磅

大家都知英國冬天比較凍，如果個 boiler差，唔單止你張電/gas單貴，仲可能冬天喺屋入面凍啲

1）我每次睇樓一定會睇下間樓係用咩Boiler

我見過嘅主要有2種boiler，儲水式(regular Boiler)，或者即熱(Combi boiler)

Combi係一舊嘢煲水同埋供暖氣，細舊啲，唔會一大個儲水缸

儲水式就你會見到一大個缸（見圖）用電嘅

而儲水式嘅係通常比新式Combi更加唔符合能源效益，張單貴啲

2）之前住shared flat用過儲水式

冬天用真係打仗咁，沖涼前一段時間要開定，沖涼如果用晒，會連間屋都凍啲，廚房洗碗想有暖水都冇。所以我嗰陣搵樓都揀有新Combi boiler嘅。

3）每次睇樓我都會問個agent個boiler喺邊

睇下個牌子

睇下新定舊（可能會問埋幾時裝）

有啲舊式嘅真係可以好殘，你會見到啲喉生銹，周圍有漬咁

如果有懷疑就可以著一著佢，開一開個暖水喉，聽下有冇怪聲，聞下有冇怪味

4）我而家個Combi Boiler係用gas嘅

5）其他

聽講有啲大屋係有種叫system boiler，同埋有啲新樓係有central heating，咁嗰啲就另一樣嘢。仲有啲heating system係underfloor heating，我就冇用過，但聽落好似最舒服。

6）買樓就check埋個boiler用咗幾耐

因為要換都可以好貴下：

How much does a new boiler cost to replace in the UK?

Combi to combi swap – £1,695.

System to combi conversion – £2,499.

New boiler install – £2,899.
