In case you want to know the differences, you can check the table below to see the pros and cons of each.

BOILER TYPES	PROS	CONS
Combi This type is both a water heater and central heating boiler combined in a single compact unit.	• Compact in size • A good solution when there is little to no loft space • Instant access to hot water • Hot water delivered at mains pressure meaning you could get a more powerful shower	• Not ideal for larger households or homes with several bathrooms • Water pressure can be affected when multiple outlets are used at once • No access to stored hot water if an issue with the boiler arises • Often a short delay in heating up • Takes longer to fill baths
System These require a hot water cylinder for storing heated water, but don’t rely on water supplied by a cold-water storage tank in the loft like regular boilers do.	• Ideal for homes with more than one bathroom • Constant supply of hot water to any number of taps at the same time • No need for a loft tank • Economical to run • Compatible with solar panels • Built in components means installation often faster	• Less efficient than combi boilers as there is unavoidable heat loss as hot water is stored • Requires more space than a combi boiler • Only heats water in advance • Hot water supply can run out and takes time to reheat
Conventional These are often found in older properties and are ideally suited to homes that have a traditional heating and hot water system.	• Access to hot water from multiple taps at a time • Ideal for larger homes with two or more bathrooms • Good option in areas where water pressure is low • Compatible with solar water heating systems	• Operates at a slightly lower pressure than combi and system boilers • Space is required for both cold and hot water storage tanks required • Less efficient than combi boilers as there is unavoidable heat loss as hot water is stored • Hot water isn’t heated on demand so can run out and takes time to reheat
