Efficiency of central heating boilers
My fairly ancient Potterton Prima was serviced today
by a Bord Gais (Gas Board) technician. He said the boiler was about 13 years old, but was in pretty good nick. I asked if modern boilers were better, and he claimed that a modern boiler might be 90% efficient, while the Potterton would be about 60% efficient. Is that true? Are modern boilers much more efficient? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland |
