Electric Flow Boilers Explained

Electric flow boilers are compatible with all standard heating and hot water systems so they with standard radiators, programmers, circulating pumps, room thermostats and thermostatic radiator valves. They heat water for radiators or underfloor heating systems. Some have an integral hot water storage cylinder to deliver mains pressure hot water to your bath, shower or tap outlets.

Electric boilers are compact and unobtrusive. They do not require a flue. This gives great flexibility in terms of where the boiler can be fitted and makes it the ideal choice for converted spaces like lofts, conservatories and outbuildings like garages where space is at a premium.

Electric flow boilers are available in a range of capacities to suit all dwellings, from mobile homes to family houses. Amptec boilers include an 11kW unit compatible with the rating of existing domestic electrical power supplies.

Electric boilers are not just for those without gas. An electric boiler does not pose a carbon monoxide risk, making it a safer option than a gas boiler. By fitting an electric boiler in a rented property, landlords can avoid costly annual safety checks and give their tenants peace of mind. Not only that, but electric boilers are highly energy efficient – householders upgrading from an LPG gas boiler can make savings on their fuel bills while reducing their carbon footprint.
