In the past, floor-standing boilers<\/span> were installer because they were more powerful<\/span>\u00a0than a wall-mounted\u00a0ones<\/span>.<\/span> Now, technological advances allows<\/span> us to enjoy<\/span>\u00a0the same performance, whether the\u00a0boiler<\/span>\u00a0is<\/span>\u00a0on the\u00a0<\/span>wall<\/span>\u00a0or on the\u00a0<\/span>floor<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0The\u00a0choice<\/span>\u00a0is now more difficult and\u00a0depends<\/span> on several structural and functional factors which will motivate<\/span>\u00a0your\u00a0decision<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Wall-mounted\u00a0boiler<\/span>\u00a0and\u00a0boiler<\/span>\u00a0on the\u00a0floor<\/span>, what\u00a0are<\/span>\u00a0the\u00a0differences <\/span>?<\/span><\/h2>\n

On a purely functional level, there is no difference between these two models of electric boilers<\/strong>.<\/span>\u00a0They\u00a0play<\/span>\u00a0the same role and\u00a0have<\/span> similar performances.<\/span>\u00a0However,\u00a0it<\/span>\u00a0is<\/span>\u00a0their\u00a0structure<\/span>\u00a0that\u00a0differentiates<\/span>\u00a0them.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>While the floor-standing boiler<\/span><\/strong>, as its\u00a0name<\/span>\u00a0suggests<\/span>, is grounded on the\u00a0floor<\/span>\u00a0and therefore\u00a0requires<\/span>\u00a0a\u00a0<\/span>lot<\/span>\u00a0of<\/span>\u00a0space<\/span><\/strong>, the wall-mounted\u00a0boiler<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0is\u00a0attached<\/span>\u00a0to a wall bracket.<\/span>\u00a0As it is<\/span>\u00a0smaller<\/span>\u00a0it<\/span>\u00a0requires<\/span>\u00a0less\u00a0space<\/span><\/strong>, and the\u00a0area<\/span>\u00a0below can be\u00a0exploited.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Advantages<\/span>\u00a0of the wall-mounted\u00a0boiler<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

The\u00a0configuration<\/span>\u00a0of the wall-mounted boiler<\/strong> is one of its\u00a0strengths<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0It\u00a0allows<\/span> easy storage and provides many other assets such as :<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Its total<\/span>\u00a0cost is\u00a0less<\/span> than that of a floor boiler.<\/span>\u00a0Indeed, the wall-mounted boiler does not\u00a0require<\/span>\u00a0a\u00a0large<\/span> workforce during its installation<\/span>\u00a0which\u00a0reduces<\/span>\u00a0the\u00a0expenses<\/span> regarding\u00a0 the\u00a0technician<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0It<\/span>\u00a0is\u00a0also<\/span> possible to mount it<\/span>\u00a0and start\u00a0it<\/span>\u00a0yourself<\/strong>.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Its\u00a0execution speed<\/span>, it requires a smaller<\/span> volume and so will be easier to heat<\/strong> than a\u00a0larger<\/span> boiler.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Its aesthetic and practical side.<\/span>\u00a0Since\u00a0it<\/span>\u00a0clings<\/span>\u00a0to a wall bracket,\u00a0it<\/span>\u00a0is more\u00a0practical :<\/span><\/span>\u00a0it can be attached in a place where the space was \u00ab\u00a0lost\u00a0\u00bb.\u00a0<\/span>Otherwise, the\u00a0space<\/span>\u00a0between the\u00a0floor<\/span>\u00a0and the\u00a0boiler<\/span>\u00a0can be\u00a0used<\/span>.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    We did not\u00a0find<\/span>\u00a0any\u00a0problem<\/span>\u00a0with the wall-mounted\u00a0boiler, as<\/span><\/span>\u00a0they<\/span> can be as powerful<\/span>\u00a0as a floor-standing\u00a0boilers<\/span>,\u00a0they<\/span>\u00a0are always recommended.<\/span>

    Advantages\/disadvantages of the floor-standing boiler<\/span><\/h2>\n

    Advantages<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

    Like the wall-mounted\u00a0boiler<\/span>, the floor-standing\u00a0boiler<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0has<\/span>\u00a0advantages<\/span>\u00a0related to its\u00a0size <\/span>: <\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    • Its ability<\/span>\u00a0to\u00a0own<\/span>\u00a0very<\/span>\u00a0large<\/span>\u00a0tanks.<\/span>\u00a0Of\u00a0<\/span>course<\/span>, this\u00a0feature<\/span>\u00a0is crucial when\u00a0you<\/span>\u00a0have<\/span> great hot water needs.<\/span><\/li>\n
    • The\u00a0possibility<\/span> of using old connecting pipes from a previous\u00a0a\u00a0boiler<\/span>\u00a0on the\u00a0floor<\/span>\u00a0before.<\/span>\u00a0This\u00a0allows<\/span>\u00a0you<\/span>\u00a0to\u00a0make<\/span>\u00a0considerable<\/span> savings.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Disadvantage<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

      The main disadvantage of a floor-standing boiler lies in its\u00a0large<\/span>\u00a0size<\/strong>\u00a0(100\u00a0x<\/span>\u00a060 x 60<\/span>\u00a0cm on\u00a0average<\/span>)<\/span>. It is difficult<\/span>\u00a0to\u00a0install<\/span>\u00a0in\u00a0houses<\/span>\u00a0that do\u00a0not<\/span>\u00a0have<\/span>\u00a0enough\u00a0space<\/span>, which they can hardly<\/span>\u00a0recover as\u00a0opposed<\/span>\u00a0to the wall-mounted boiler<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
