How A Central Heating System Works

Posted on: October 31st, 2011 No Comments

There are several components to a central heating system but there’s nothing in there that really required a degree in rocket science (if such a thing ever exists). At the heart of your central heating system is the boiler and the water pump. These are responsible for supplying whatever part of your home needs hot water first. The system itself will also need to be connected to a set of radiators distributed around your home to provide heat for your family.

In more modern central heating systems you will also need thermostats to be placed around the property to regulate the heating in each “zone”. In a normal home there are 3 zones – your boiler, your upstairs heating and your downstairs heating. With this type of system you can heat just the water in your boilers or just that one specific area of your home during the day.

This means you’re creating a much smaller carbon footprint because you’re only using energy to heat specific parts of your home at specific times. This is a total contrast to the older central heating systems where once they were turned on they heated your boiler and the radiators until it was turned off – a highly inefficient use of energy in this day and age.
