Which Boiler is Best for My Home?
Electric Flow Boilers
Electric flow boilers provide hot water to your wet central heating system. This can be either radiators, underfloor heating or a combination of both.
Multiple electric flow boilers can be banked together to achieve larger outputs. Making them an ideal solution for smaller and larger home alike.
They can be used on sealed and open vented systems. They can also be used in conjunction with an unvented cylinder and normal central heating controls.
Electric Combi Boilers
Electric combi boilers are usually a combination of an electric flow boiler with a hot water storage cylinder and a pre-plumbed, factory fitted circulating pump all presented in a nice neat casing.
The same out come can be achieved by using an electric flow boiler and unvented cylinder. However this can be more labour intensive and take up more space.
Electric combi boilers can be installed on sealed systems and produce mains pressure hot water. Their design usually allows them to fit neatly in to most domestic airing cupboards.
