How Do Oil Boilers Work?

One option for heating your home is to install and use an oil boiler. You may have heard of them previously but aren’t quite sure what they all entail and how they function. Here is more information about what oil boilers are and we’ll also dive deeper into the question, of, how do oil boilers work.

What are Oil Boilers?

An oil boiler is a system that burns fuel to heat the water and then pumps the hot water to all of the radiators. There are combi oil boilers as well as system and heat-only oil boilers that work with a hot water cylinder. Combi oil boilers heat water using a heat exchanger.

How do Oil Boilers Work?

Oil boilers work very comparably to that of gas boilers. Within the combustion chamber, the fuel, or oil in this instance, is ignited and a heat exchanger heats up the cold water. In a combi system it’s heated from the mains and in a conventional system it’s heated from a cold-water tank. An oil boiler will heat a home when the cold water travels to the circulator of the boiler and then gets heated by the burning oil.
