An external oil boiler is similar to the boilers you can find inside a house, but they have one key difference: they are encased in weatherproof housing, allowing them to be located outside your home.
So why is an external oil boiler a great choice?
1. Free up space indoors
Relocating your boiler is a great way to free up valuable space in your kitchen or utility room, so if you’re switching from an indoor to an outdoor oil boiler, this is also an opportunity to rearrange your space. The extra room you gain with the switch can kickstart a spacious kitchen remodelling project.

2. Improve appearance
With an external oil boiler, you can finally say goodbye to having a large and unattractive device inside your home, removing clutter and improving your home’s appearance.
3. Reduce noise
With a boiler outdoors, you can dramatically reduce boiler noise within your home.
4. Reduce carbon monoxide risk
Locating your boiler outside reduces the risk of carbon monoxide leaking into your home.

5. Prevent damage to your home
An external boiler can eliminate the risk of damage and odours from oil leakage.
