LPG
LPG is a type of fuel produced by the process of processing natural gas and is mainly used for heating, hot water supply and cooking. LPG is stored condensed in liquid form in special LPG liquefaction containers, also known as LPG tanks.
In heating systems, LPG is usually used in combustion-operated appliances. These devices can be air heating systems (eg gas stoves) or central heating systems (eg gas boilers). During operation, LPG is burned converting the combustion energy into heat, which is used to heat the space or water.
LPG is widely used in many areas, mainly because of its relative cheapness and efficiency as a heating source. It is an alternative choice to other fuels such as heating oil or wood.

Natural Gas
Natural gas is a natural fuel that consists mainly of methane, but also contains small amounts of other hydrocarbons, such as propane, butane and butylene. Natural gas is one of the cleanest and most efficient fuels and is mainly used for heating, hot water production and cooking in domestic and commercial applications.
In heating systems, natural gas is usually used in central heating with boilers or in air heating systems such as stoves. Its operation is similar to other fuels such as the aforementioned LPG: it burns converting the combustion energy into heat, which is used to heat space or water.
Natural gas has become very popular due to relatively low price and clean combustion. It is also very easy to use and install, which makes it a popular choice for heating systems.

Questions from you, answers for you
Wall-mounted condensing gas boilers are modern heating devices that operate using natural gas or LPG. Condensation refers to the process where the fuel and exhaust gases produced during combustion are cooled inside the boiler and turned into a liquid during its operation. Their operation is based on the principle of energy saving, as they take advantage of the heat produced by the exhaust gases and the release of this energy for heating.
In this way, they achieve a high degree of efficiency and reduce operating costs. They are usually installed indoors and outdoors and are connected to the building's central heating system. By using a thermostat or other control, the user can set the desired temperature and control their operation according to the heating needs of the space
The efficiency of wall-mounted gas condensing boilers is very high, usually ranging from 90% to over 100%. Efficiency can include the efficient conversion of energy produced by burning fuels into heat for heating, as well as the reduction of heat losses through the condensation of exhaust gases. Modern wall-mounted condensing boilers are designed to be highly efficient and minimize energy losses, making them an excellent choice for domestic and commercial heating. Their high efficiency means they can provide heating with less fuel consumption, thus reducing running costs and greenhouse gas emissions.
When all necessary precautions are taken and proper practices are followed, installing gas for heating can be safe. However, despite the implementation of safeguards, the installation and operation of the gas system remains potentially dangerous if not properly managed. Some factors that affect safety are:
Proper installation: Installation must be done by a qualified technician and in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements.
Maintenance: The gas system must be regularly serviced by a qualified technician to ensure smooth operation and safety.
Equipment: The system and materials of the installation should be to the specifications specified by the manufacturer!
Although the gas installation can be relatively safe when the necessary precautions are taken, users should always be careful and follow the instructions for the use and maintenance of the gas system.
A gas heating system works by burning gas to create heat, which is transferred to the space through a hydraulic distribution system.
The appropriate power of a gas boiler is determined by calculating the thermal efficiency required to heat the space, taking into account flow rate, mixture ratio and other parameters.
The installation of gas for heating requires compliance with all safety regulations. Preventive measures include regular maintenance, gas control and professionally trained personnel.
The cost of installing a gas heating system depends on many factors, including the size of the system and the installation area.
