You must have a few questions. We’ve answered some of the most commonly-asked questions about replacement electric boilers here, but please speak to the team if you have any more.
Electric boilers could be an excellent upgrade to some of the more traditional or off-grid boiler options out there. Talk to our expert team about the best choice for your property – we’re only too happy to help! Or take some time to explore your other options such as air-source heat pumps.
This depends on the price of electricity, the size of your home, and how much hot water you use. Prices of electricity from the National Grid have been rising steadily in the past few years, as have all utilities, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that an electric boiler will be any more or less expensive to run than an alternative option.
One surefire way of ensuring that your electric boiler is supplied with low-cost, green, sustainable energy is to add PV solar panels, an inverter, and a solar battery storage system, so speak to us if this is of interest.
If you have a combi boiler or system boiler, then no. If, however, you have a heat-only boiler, then you’ll need to have enough space on your property for two tanks – a larger one in the loft and a smaller one in a cupboard space elsewhere in the building. If you’re unsure which type of electric boiler is best for your home, business, or public building, give us a call on 01942 918 844 for advice.
