Suitable for smaller properties that have shower and hot water outlets for sinks, The Electric Heating Company (EHC) has launched Fusion Astro Electric Combi Boilers. With a compact design and 3bar safety protection, the boiler is said to have a large LCD screen and low running noise. Due to the fact that there is no flue required, the boiler can be installed on internal walls.
The eco-friendly range is also compatible with all volt free external programmers, and comes with a two year guarantee.
Viessmann
Vitodens 200
With an 11kW output, Viessmann has introduced its new Vitodens 200 domestic boiler range. The company believes the 11kW output will satisfy the demands from installers that closely match the head demand of the majority of modest-sized, well-insulated homes, and reduce the common problems associated with oversizing.
Both wall-hung boilers (Vitodens 200-W) and floor-standing storage boilers (Vitodens 222-F), are available, with outputs from 11 to 60kW. Inbuilt WiFi is also featured, making them smartphone-ready.
According to the company, there are around 50% fewer spare parts for maintenance, thanks to reduced complexity and therefore increasing the reliability of the units.

The appliance is designed for flexible flueing and can be flued horizontally or vertically using Vokèra’s concentric uni-flue or twin-flue systems. Units also include stand-off brackets required for rear outlet flue exit.
