Over the years, I?ve heard the term Back Boilers - especially in the 60s and 70s but rarely since- but only had a vague idea that they are, in simple terms, a heating system which is tucked away behind (typically) a gas fire or, as I recall a relative having, a solid fuel fire.
Is my assumption correct, please?
Also, are such systems still available? If, for example, you bought a house with such a system could it be replaced with another Back Boiler or would it mean converting to a ?conventional? system.
