Condensing oil boiler – Conventional oil boiler

Your heating consumes more energy than your car.
So save in the right area. The development of the price of crude oil is currently undergoing dramatic change. The consumer is almost defenceless with regard to this increase in price, especially with regard to domestic heating. With the car, costs can be reduced by using it less and therefore reducing the consumption of fuel. However, this is not possible de facto with domestic heating.

It is only when constructing a new building or when modernising a heating system that you have the chance to reduce energy consumption considerably over the next 20 years by investing in a highly efficient technology.

If you opt for a condensing/solar heating system  at this point, you will be able to significantly reduce your energy costs in the long-term. According to the German energy saving ordinance (EnEV) and DIN 4701, Part 10, upon which it is based, this can be as much as 50 %. Anyone installing a conventional boiler nowadays is wasting energy.

Exsample
Single-family house with heating oil consumption of 3,500 l/year when using a modern boiler. As is usual nowadays, the boiler is operated using ambient air. The alternative condensing oil boiler is operated independently of ambient air as standard and installed inside the warm building shell. According to DIN 4701 T 10, the energy-saving potential of the condensing oil boiler compared to the conventional boiler is approx. 17 %. This produces the following oil consumption values:
Oil boiler dependent on ambient air	3.500 l oil/year
Oil condensing boiler independent of ambient air	2.905 l oil/year
Oil saving per year	595 l oil/year
CO2 saving potential per year	1,589 t CO/Jahr
Range of a car which consumes 5 litres diesel/100 km	11.900 km/year
Oil saving in 10 years	5.950 l oil in 10 years
This corresponds to a travel distance of the 5-litre car of	119.000 km in 10 years
or	approx. 3 times around the world
