The Ideal Logic + heat only was granted the Queen's Award in enterprise innovation due to its advanced built-in frost protection. Cold weather complications account for a huge number of boiler unreliability or breakdown issues, this often results in service or repair fees.
Installation and Boiler Repair

Ideal is such a prevalent brand even amongst the current industry wide boiler shortage, replacement parts can be readily sourced and fitted.

What Is A Heat Only Boiler?
A heat only (sometimes referred to as regular, conventional, open vent) boiler provides the heat for a home's central heating system and hot water cylinder.
A heat only boiler is suited to servicing larger properties with multiple bathrooms/radiators or a business premises with a high water demand.
Heat only boilers do require sufficient installation space within a property, as they use two storage tanks (feed & expansion) as well as the aforementioned hot water cylinder.
Although a combi is generally considered more space saving, a heat only boiler is still compact and can supply more bathrooms with hot running water than a combi can.
However if you think your property is more suited to a combi, check out our handy guide to the best combis of 2025 right here!
