60kW Boiler – Gas fired condensing boiler

60kw boiler;60kw system boiler;60kw heat only boiler;60kw regular boiler

Our 60kw boiler is a hot water boiler for central heating and will also produce domestic hot water via an indirect cylinder for larger properties or light commercial applications. They are a regular boiler, which are normally wall hung / mounted or can be installed on an optional frame floor standing kit if space is at a premium, when considering your new high efficiency boiler.

With ERP high efficiencies of 97% full load efficiency and 108% at part load efficiency, this is an “A” rating energy efficient boiler, they are ideal boilers- with a lightweight design and compact footprint for this product range, and low class 6 NOx emissions.

They are available in natural gas models or LPG gas models, and have a 28mm diameter stainless steel heat exchanger – which guarantees lower blocking risk, higher thermal efficiency, and easier cleaning of this commercial boiler.

Condensing boiler – 60 kW

These boilers make use of a method known as condensing, in which the boiler extracts the energy that has been accumulated in the hot exhaust gases before discharging them into the external environment. Because of this, its operating efficiency rating is significantly increased, and it also achieves a greater fuel economy, which results in running costs saving, which you would expect when installing a new boiler.

A gas condensing boiler is the best boiler, as they’re the most reliable and efficient for heavy domestic or light commercial heating applications. Our wall hung boiler features as standard, a reliable high efficiency pump integrated within this commercial boiler. This reduces installation labour time and cost.

Commercial boiler or large home heating boiler?

At this boiler output, this boiler may be referred to as a commercial boiler. Some people say anything over a 50kW boiler is one. Any qualified domestic gas engineer, who is gas safe registered can install a natural gas-fired condensing boiler up to 70kW of input. So, is it a light commercial boiler or a large domestic boiler – it’s in the eye of the beholder as they say?

60kW System boiler or 60kW Regular boiler

These are 60kW regular boilers, also known as conventional boilers or heat only boilers, these maintain the pressure in the heating system with the assistance of a header tank, also known as a feed (sometimes called a cold water storage cistern) and expansion tank, which is often located in the attic. On the other hand, system boilers make use of a pressurised heating circuit that is fed by water drawn from the mains. System boilers are more common these days as they are sealed heating systems.

You can make our unit into a 60kW system boiler by adding an expansion vessel to the heating system, unfortunately at this size of boiler we don’t have the space within the casing for installation of the expansion vessel.

Stainless steel combustion chamber

Product details and features – careful component selection – for high reliability this product features a stainless steel heat exchanger in our commercial boiler, as it’s the most suitable providing long product life as they provide a higher level of resistance to oxidation and corrosion, whilst light enough in weight at the output rating of 60 kW to be wall mounted / wall hung. Most high quality popular brands also use stainless steel heat exchangers now for reliability, but a few still using an inferior aluminium heat exchanger in their wall hung new boiler. We offer a 5 years warranty on our heat exchanger on this commercial boiler.

Electric Boiler 9kw Output

9kw electric boiler for wet central heating water heating;low carbon green energy electric heating

A 9kw electric boiler works just like a gas boiler, just that it’s powered by electricity rather than gas. They benefit from easier installation, as no requirements for flue offers flexible installation location – you can decide where to locate your electric boiler to suit your needs or your customer requirements, unlike a gas system which can be dictated by the flue system requirements of gas or oil boilers.

With no annual gas safety certificate required for electric boilers resulting in lower maintenance costs, and being suitable to installed in customers property for either a retrofit or new installation.

Wet central heating with an electric boiler

These 9kW electric boilers, which provide wet central heating come complete with an integrated “ERP” energy efficient compliant heating pump and an integrated 7 litre expansion vessel, making these electric boilers what is commonly known as a “sealed system boiler” or sealed systems.

A compact and small electric boiler – energy efficient home heating electric solution from Flexiheat UK

This means this electric boiler can not only do the heating system, be it an underfloor heating or radiator heating system, but can also heat an indirect cylinder for your domestic hot water requirements if so required.

This allows you to have a “sealed heating system,” meaning that no feed and expansion water tank (i.e., open vented systems) is required in the loft — which can be prone to freezing or bursting, you don’t get this potential problem with sealed systems. It also makes installation much easier and more compact in the property because all the necessary parts are inside the electric boiler casing, such as the factory fitted circulating pump and expansion vessel.

Energy efficient wet central heating system

To ensure maximum efficiency from our unit, our 9kW electric boiler incorporates nine-stage heating modulation, with small increments of 1kW power steps. This unique benefit will modulate the boiler to reduce electricity consumption and running costs, via better heat load matching of the central heating system as the thermostatic radiator valves open and close or in the case of underfloor heating systems control.

Energy efficient domestic hot water heating via a hot water cylinder

Delivery or production of domestic hot water is achieved via pressurised or open vented indirect cylinder, for fast filling baths and to supply multiple tap outlets with hot water supply at the same time – schematically like so

domestic hot water heating with an electric boiler; Potterton gold electric boilers; bathroom showroom; vat add delivery; Potterton gold indirect cylinder

The boilers have an automatic system within that operates both the heating and the indirect DHW cylinder

It operates in a switching mode and Domestic Hot Water always has priority

Lower temperatures ( from 25C to 80°C ), can be set and controlled for the heating circuit– and you can use Equithermal control – as our unit is “Opentherm” compatible with various controllers or via our operation front panel indication.

Equithermal control is compensated weather control- the boiler automatically drops the flow temperature relative to the weather conditions – for example on a day when the temperature is 12C outside – and you want 20C inside, the boiler works out that you only require 50C water temperature output to the radiators, and this saves you energy and thus running costs. – more on this in this video

Why is this set up important?

Because you can have two required temperatures – i.e., the heating side of the boiler, may be running underfloor heating – which needs a maximum temperature of 45C, or if the boiler is compensating the flow temperatures to a radiator system, for example – it may have reduced the flow temperature to 50 or 60C – This would not be a high enough temperature to heat the indirect hot water cylinder

For the DHW cylinder, the electric boiler heats up to a higher temperature (usually 75-80°C, to heat the DHW cylinder as quickly as possible) -the automatic control closes the heating circuit and opens the DHW heating circuit, switches on the pump and heating elements and heats to a higher temperature (75-80°C) which heats the DHW cylinder very quickly (100 litres in approx. 10 – 20 minutes! Based on a 15kW)

If you use an unvented mains cold water supply hot water storage cylinder, then you can have a powerful hot water supply delivering mains pressure showering hot water and fast filling baths.

Note – If you require a 9kW electric combi boiler or combination boiler, look at our solution – as a true 9kW electric combi won’t work correctly to produce an adequate flow rate based on the water temperatures we get in the UK and Ireland especially in the winter period – the flow rates as just pathetic and unusable – look our solution here – electric combination boilers

Open vented systems

Pressurised or open vented central heating systems? open vented systems are now old technology when it comes to a wet central heating.

You can use our boilers on an open heating system, but the require minimum head is 8 metres,

But we don’t recommend it as open vented system allow oxygen ingress into the heating water, which result in corrosion in the system, with standard radiators and some thermostatic radiator valves being manufactured in steel this is not a good idea.
