CombiSave - Energy Saving Valve for Combination Boilers

Product Information

Designed to combat the fact that even brand new A-rated boilers waste water, gas, time and money every time you turn on the hot tap. The CombiSave is an award-winning British innovation that can help you reduce the amount of water and gas used in the initial water heating process, saving you time and money, and helping the environment. Both my wife and I are in our 70’s so of course, as we aren’t in the banking fraternity, we have to spend our money as wisely as possible. We have had a Worcester Highflow combination boiler for 7 years and have always been concerned about how much domestic water we waste when washing up , etc. Don’t forget though, if you and your wife shower/bathe directly after one another then you will not waste so much as the water is already warm fro the second shower. Our team of expert engineers, electricians and plumbers can help you identify the savings and efficiency products you need. They'll visit you at home, chat with you about what you need, and give you a free quote.

Small changes to the internal workings of the device – which include redirecting the flow of water – mean that it now works more efficiently in areas of high water pressure. Hi, I’m from Mole Group, I saw on here people talking about CombiSave. It’s great that our product has got people talking! I just wanted to answer a few of the questions raised... So would turning the tap on a bit achieve the same things as the CombiSave?? Would you get fed up waiting? Does it matter if you are close to the bolier? CombiSave imitates an “intelligent tap” so does not affect boiler mechanisms. The lifespan of a CombiSave is 10-20 years and the oldest one fitted to the rudimentary design has been in place problem-free for five years.

Top saving and efficiency tips

It follows a successful pilot programme at the end of last year when the valve was installed in homes in the Newport area. CombiSave is recommended by both the Water Regulations Advisory Scheme (WRAS) and Waterwise, and can be fitted in less than 20 minutes as part of a normal boiler service or repair.

A central heating system filter is a small, yet powerful device that fits by your boiler or in your airing cupboard. It captures damaging debris and sludge from the water in your heating system and prevents it from entering your boiler and causing damage. It'll protect your boiler and radiators and help the heating system to last longer and work more efficiently. Why do I need a Powerflush?

Kenny Maxwell, Sales Manager at Teddington, said: “We’re delighted to have this partnership in place. The pilot programme at the end of last year was very positive and we’re looking forward to working with the Welsh Government over the next 12 months and beyond. As soon as the hot tap is turned on, CombiSave reduces the water flow until the set temperature is achieved. From there, the valve opens fully and allows hot water to flow throughout the system. CombiSave can help you save as much as 8 litres of water each time the tap is turned on from cold. CombiSave Installation No, there is no evidence of this. The components of CombiSave have been carefully chosen to be suitable for all areas. Thanks for your comments and our chat just now. It’s really refreshing to see a manufacturing engaging in debates about their products. CombiSave comes preset at 45°C. This can be adjusted by the fitter +/- 5 degrees centigrade as required.A CombiSave is a simple valve that monitors the temperature of your water. If you have a Combi boiler and find you spend a lot of time waiting for your water to heat up to the right temperature, a CombiSave could be a good solution for you. They're also a good idea if you're on a water meter as they'll help you save water and lower your bills as a result. Why do I need a mains water switch or Surestop?

Good point also about the pre-heat. I haven’t got that on, and haven’t ever used it as I felt it’s just a waste of energy really, but I’m sure a lot of people do have it switched on (is it a default setting I wonder?)

Limescale control and water softening products

Also, usefully, I have been on a water meter for years, so can also easily calculate a daily summertime water usage volume from my previous bills. Typically, for our two person household it has been around 200 litres a day. You sound as if you have the ‘pre heat’ function on your boiler. That can, according to David from Combisave, cost you quite a lot over the year. I appreciate switching it off may mean you don’t get the heat in the airing cubaord in the summer months, but is that so much of a problem? I’ve never had an airing cupboard, although I remember one from my youth in my mum’s house, and so don’t really miss one. Switching the ‘pre-heat’ off might save a you a hell of a lot of money on your gas bill! The Potty Puma method works differently from a CombiSave in that the Potterton Puma valve did not save water. The Nest scheme is part of the Welsh Government’s work to reduce the number of people who are struggling to keep their homes warm and cope with high utility bills. My calculations have only been on the water wastage side, so any gas saving is a bonus. I measured the ‘unsatisfactory’ water during washing up and have found that it takes 0.5 to 2 washing-up bowl contents before the water is hot enough (this varies because there is a small hot water tank inside the boiler – is this pre-heat?) The bowl holds 5 ltr so wastage is 2.5 to 10 ltr, which twice a day means 5 to 20 ltr per day.
