4. Oil-fired and condensing boilers

Oil-fired condensation (figure 19 ) is less attractive, as its latent heat recovery capacity is lower, at around 6%.

On the other hand, the recovered condensates are acidic (with a pH of 2 to 3) and must therefore be treated before discharge.

What's more, the boiler's condensing heat exchanger has to be made of stainless steel, which increases the financial cost of this generator.
