hot water in summer months with some models (not storage combis)
No

No
immersion heater so no back-up
Combis are now the best selling boiler type for gas central heating
in Britain. They’ve been proven steadfast, reliable and tough.
Some combis will settle snugly into an average cupboard. They are
also economical to run and can certainly produce an endless stream
of hot water.
But, it has to be mentioned, that the flow can be limited if other
taps are running simultaneously. That said, it provides almost instantaneous
steaming hot water, literally on tap, whenever you need it.
There is no storage cylinder to heat first or to run cold and there
are no tanks to find space for. So ask yourself if there is such
a great demand for simultaneous hot water around your home. If the
washing machine, bath and shower aren’t competing in every
room, combi boilers really could be the perfect partner
