A-Rated Boilers
An A-Rated Boiler is one of the most efficient types of boilers you can have in your home and will save you money as opposed to higher rated models. The Energy Rating of boilers is determined on how much gas they use to heat water for central heating as well as hot water supply in your home.
What are the Differences Between the Different Energy Ratings of Boilers.
Boilers are rated from A+++ to G-, with A being the most efficient and G the worst. The energy efficiency label has been around for over 25 years, however in recent years has been revised, a simple rule of thumb is the closer to A the better the efficiency, below is an example of the different energy rating and the percentage of efficiency.
A - 90%+
B - 86-90%
C - 82-86%
D - 78-82%
E - 74 - 78%
F - 70-74%
G - Below 70%
How Much Money will an A-Rated Boiler Save Me?
Certainly, an A-Rated Boiler will save more money than a lower ranked one, such as G, however there are many variables that determine the amount of money you save, these include the type and size of house, how insulated your pipes are, the cost of your energy supply, your home’s double glazing, how often your existing boiler has been serviced and maintained and much more. It is certain though that if your boiler is over 10 years old, opting for a more efficient boiler will save you money in the long run.
