It is different than a gas or oil boiler because an electric boiler uses electricity instead of fossil fuels.

Parts
A boiler will have five key parts: a burner, combustion chamber, heat exchanger, exhaust stack, and controls. A burner gives off heat that is necessary to heat up the water. A combustion chamber holds the burners and is in charge of the combustion process. A heat exchanger brings the heat from the burner to the water. Its job is to bring heat to the water without having contact with the water, similar to boiling water in a pot. An exhaust stack takes the hot gases and transfers them away from the boiler. Boiler controls are there to make sure the hot water or steam is produced in a safe way.
