Electric Boilers

In 2020 renewable resources made up 43% of the total UK electricity supply and overtook fossil fuels as the major source of supply.

Electric boilers can be run from renewable resources such as wind generated, tidal and solar power which means you can run your boiler completely free of CO2 emissions.

So if you combine electric home heating with a 100% renewable electricity tariff, you know that your heating will be carbon-free.

An electric boiler uses electricity to generate the heat required to provide the central heating and hot water for a property. The size of the property and hot water requirements will determine the size and type of ‘Electric Boiler’.

Integrating an ‘Electric Boiler’ with a solar PV system, a well-insulated home and 100% renewable tariff will provide you with one of the most eco-friendly systems possible.

The Primus S range of electric system boilers are designed to provide all of your domestic space heating needs, through a wet central or underfloor heating system. It is a direct replacement for a gas system boiler and there is no need to change any radiators or pipes. Used in conjunction with an unvented indirect hot water cylinder it can also provide all of your hot water needs for larger and multi bathroom properties.

By integrating a timer with the boiler you can use cheaper off peak electricity to heat your water store, thus saving money, balancing the grid and utilising 100% renewable electricity.

The Primus C range of electric combi boilers are direct replacements for gas combi boilers used in flats or dwellings where there is only one bathroom with a shower.

There’s no need to replace existing pipework or radiators and the boiler can be sited anywhere within the property as it doesn’t need a flue.
