70kW Boiler Gas Fired Condensing

70kW boiler gas fired condensing

70kw Boiler gas fired condensing boiler for central heating be it radiators or underfloor heating and domestic hot water in a environmentally friendly way from Flexiheat UK

 

Our gas fired 70kW boiler is available in natural gas or for LPG gas fuel (LPG biofuel compatible to). They are a high-performance “A “rated efficiency , “ErP” compliant condensing boiler and offer enhanced performance that exceeds the Part L building regulations for seasonal energy efficiency requirements. With low NOx Class 6 environmentally friendly emissions.

This regular boiler can be used for space heating, central heating (radiators or underfloor heating), and domestic hot water production via a plate heat exchanger or indirect domestic hot water calorifier or cylinder.

Efficiency features: with a modulation ratio of 20:1, the automatic part load adjustment offers superb outputs down to 3.5 kw of heat output, which leads to better heat load matching of the system, lower fuel consumption, and you’ll save on energy costs.

This energy efficient commercial boiler also has two stainless steel heat exchangers in one boiler, which ensures redundancy for your heating system; if one heat exchanger module fails, you still have up to 50% of your heat duty available. This feature can be vital for commercial customers on a site that can’t be without some heat.

The unit comes with a 2-year warranty for parts , and the heat exchanger has a 5-year warranty if, as required by the building regulations, a dirt and air separator is fitted to protect the system, and the product is serviced annually.

70 kW wall-hung gas condensing boilers

With the option of installing the boiler as a wall-to-wall solution or arranged on a suitable free-standing frame kit for floor-mounted installation, depending on site requirements.

We can provide a solution for every commercial specification, as we can cascade these high performance gas boilers up to 960 kW with automatic part load adjustment if so required.

As each boiler (heat exchanger) has its own flue non-return valve, you can service either boiler heat exchanger module without shutting the space heating system down.

Our energy-efficient gas 70kw boilers are fitted with fully modulating low NOx burners (Class 6 combustion levels) for lower environmental impact.

R1K75 gas condensing boiler output and energy efficiency figures—Part L building regulations

The latest changes to Part L of the Building Regulations, which went into effect on June 15, 2023, say that all new wet central heating systems should be sized for a maximum heating flow temperature of 55°C (previously, 75°C plus boiler flow temperature was allowed), and preferably lower if possible to get the most condensing effect from boilers.

Thus, our gas boiler will produce up to 79.35 kW when the heating system flow and return temperatures are 50/30 °C.

The unit will also provide 72.83 kW at 80/60 °C if you have a process heating application that is not covered in the Part “L” building regulations.

Should you require a larger output gas boiler (we do up to 240 kW in a single boiler and up to 980 kW in a cascade system, then we do a full range of gas condensing boilers, which are listed here.

Commercial gas condensing boiler range

Specifications

  • “A” ErP efficiency rating wall-hung boiler designed for commercial use or a very large home domestic central heating systems and DHW for multiple bathrooms via a hot water cylinder.
  • Low Class 6 NOx flue gas emissions making these more environmentally friendly.
  • Straightforward and easy install: all plumbing connections are at the bottom of the unit saving installation costs.
  • Energy efficient condensing boilers up to 105.8 % at 100% heat input at 50/30°C
  • Stainless steel heat exchanger with 28mm diameter water ways that ensure the boiler benefits from very low pressure drops, guarantees lower risks of clogging (more resistance to fouling up), greater thermal efficiency, and greater ease of cleaning.
  • Intelligent fault system: if the boiler has a fault, it will tell you exactly what has gone wrong, i.e., if the heating system installation pressure is too low, etc.
  • Maximum heating operating system pressure = 3 bar
  • Maximum heating operating system pressure = 0.3 bar
  • An “Opentherm” thermostat controller, such as a “Hive” or “Nest” type, can control the boiler’s operation and temperature either locally or on the go using your phone, tablet, or computer. You can also use a basic thermostat; the choice is yours.
  • BMS compatible with our 0–10 volt free contact kit

70kW gas system boiler

Are these an 70kW gas system boiler? Yes, in that they have a pump (two pumps actually, i.e., one for each heat exchanger module), but at this size of system boiler, we can’t fit an expansion vessel within the boiler casing, so one needs to be fitted to the plumbing pipework external to the boiler to make the unit a full system boiler.

Flue options

Each heat exchanger module features its own flue exhaust connection. You can either individually flue each unit with a co-axial flue (80mm/125mm) should you wish to go room-sealed up to 10 metres vertically or horizontally in range. However, if you use a split flue system, you can go up to 40 metres vertically or horizontally in range.

The last option is a common flue header for the boiler.
