The main difference is that steam boilers heat water until it turns into steam, which is then used for energy, cleaning, or heating. Hot water boilers heat and circulate water, but the water does not become steam. Steam boilers are common in heavy industries, while hot water boilers often support space and process heating in smaller facilities.

Start by considering your process needs, available space, fuel options, and budget. Consulting with an expert like East Coast Steam helps you compare models and features for your site in Victoria.
