A combination boiler provides both heating and hot water, while a hot water heater only heats water. A combination boiler is more suitable for smaller homes with limited space, as it is more compact and efficient. A hot water heater is better for larger homes with higher hot water demand.

Is a condensing boiler the same as a combination boiler?

Hi. No, these are not the same thing. A Combi-boiler can be a type of condensing boiler that does not need a tank and just heats the water on demand. A combi boiler can be of a condenisng type - in other words there are combi boilers that are condensing boilers. However, there are many types of condensing boiler that do have a holding tank, so not all condensing boilers are combi-boilers. By the way, if you are looking into a combi boiler, make sure that your installer has factored in your likely hot water usage and that this type of system will supply you what you need even at peak times.
