If you’re in the market for a new boiler, you may be wondering how exactly a gas boiler works. At Horsforth Heating Solutions, we understand that it can be overwhelming trying to navigate all of the different options and understand the technical details. That’s why we’ve put together this informative blog to explain the basics of how a gas boiler works.

A gas boiler is a type of heating system that uses natural gas or propane to heat your home. When you turn on your thermostat, the boiler sends hot water or steam to the radiators or baseboard heaters in your home. This heat is then circulated throughout the house, keeping you warm and comfortable.

So, how does a gas boiler actually produce heat? It all starts with the burners, which are fuelled by natural gas or propane. When the thermostat calls for heat, the burners are ignited, and the gas is burned in the combustion chamber. This creates heat, which is then transferred to the water in the boiler’s tank.

The water in the tank is kept at a consistent temperature by a thermostat. When the water reaches the desired temperature, it is sent through the pipes to the radiators or baseboard heaters in your home. As the water circulates through the system, it gives off heat, warming the air in your home.
