Condensation Boiler Efficiency!


Recommended Posts

About a year ago we got a new Worcester Greenstar Condensation Boiler installed.

I was informed that this is supposed to be very efficient.

What I have noticed so far is that when the hot water tap is open the boiler goes on full blast for about 1 minute and still there is no hot water on tap. Most times I turn the tap for a few seconds ( turn on and off immediately),the boiler would still go on full blast for a minute with all the emanating steam .

Is this what is 'efficiency at its best' ?

These days I do not use the hot water tap most of the time.

Is it still under warranty?

It sounds like a fault to me. We have a Worcester boiler and it produces hot water when we put the hot tap on.

The efficiency is because you are not heating a whole tank of water - you just heat the water as you need it.
