Modern condensing boilers are highly efficient — but that efficiency comes with a by-product: acidic condensate water. In most domestic and commercial installations, this drains away by gravity to a nearby waste pipe. But when the boiler sits in a utility room, plant room, or location where gravity drainage isn’t feasible, a condensate pump is the solution. This guide covers when you need one, how to specify the right pump, and which models work best for UK heating and plumbing installations.
