How does the condensing boiler work?
The boiler produces heat by burning natural gas.
In a standard or low temperature boiler, the fumes and water vapor from the combustion of natural gas are released into the atmosphere instead of being fully exploited.
Instead of discharging them into the atmosphere, the condensing boiler collects these fumes, cools them to create water vapor, and condenses this vapor to take advantage of their thermal energy.
It will allow you to save up to 30% (1) in energy savings on your heating bill, compared to 20% for a conventional boiler.

The condensing boiler, soon mandatory!
Condensing boilers will gradually replace older generations of devices on the market. Boiler manufacturers are now required to only make boilers with good yields / with an ETas greater than 86%.
The installation of a gas boiler service of the low temperature type remains possible but only in certain specific cases (in the case of boilers installed in apartments and connected to collective flues).
The boiler repairer
You can call either a heating plumber or a boiler expert to repair your heating installation:
The plumber remains the most affordable craftsman with a price that varies between 40 and 80 € per hour.

What premiums for repairing a boiler?
For the time being, there is no system in place to finance all or part of a boiler repair.
However, you can benefit from reduced VAT for the repair of an HPE (or high energy performance) boiler.
The benefit of this reduced VAT is nevertheless conditioned by the intervention of a professional with a certification including RGE certification, to be discovered in this article.
Financial aid generally only applies in the context of the replacement of a boiler. When it becomes necessary to replace your boiler, you can thus rely on the boiler tax credit but also the aid and subsidies of the ANAH.
