Baxi has launched the Amptec S, an electric system boiler which it says can provide an energy-efficient alternative heating and hot water solution to gas.
Manufactured in the UK, the Amptec S is available in six models ranging from 4kW to 18kW. The company says it has a temperature range adjustable from 30°C to 80°C, modulating ratio up to 9:1 and by cycling of its heating elements, the boiler intelligently matches output to demand.
To ensure seamless integration with a wide range of controls, Baxi has made the Amptec S compatible with universal communication protocol, OpenTherm.
The unit includes a circulation pump and an expansion vessel. All pipework is inside the boiler. The design of the new boiler allows it to fit into a cupboard 290mm deep.
The Amptec S also comes with a 2-year warranty for added peace of mind.
Rob Pearse, Residential Business Director at Baxi said: “Keeping manufacturing in the UK means we can easily adapt to what our UK customers and users really need. We’ve considered the installer’s experience at every step of the design process with the Amptec S and, in doing so, we’ve made an electric boiler that’s easy to work with because of its small size and weight. Most importantly, however, it is also able to provide energy efficient heat and hot water when used in conjunction with an indirect cylinder. Its reliability, adaptability and affordability are all features that installers can discuss with their customers, knowing that the solution they’re providing will tick a number of important boxes while being easy to install and maintain.”
