Worcester Bosch 1000 Combi Boiler review

A combi boiler, or combination boiler, is a type of boiler that provides both heating and hot water from a single unit.

Unlike conventional boilers, which require a separate hot water cylinder and cold water tank, this brand new for 2023 Worcester Bosch combi boiler saves space and energy by heating water directly from the mains when you turn on a tap or shower.

Due to the primary heat exchanger and secondary heat exchanger for separate uses, this means that you don’t have to wait for hot water to heat up or store it in a clunky hot water tank, which can reduce your energy bills and carbon footprint.

Marketed as a budget combi boiler by Worcester Bosch, it is ideal for small to medium-sized homes with one or two bathrooms (if you get the 30kW version), as it can provide enough hot water for multiple taps or showers at the same time.

However, our experts recommend that if you have a large home with more than two bathrooms or a high demand for hot water, you might want to consider a Worcester Bosch system boiler or a regular boiler instead.
