Baxi has launched the Amptec S, a state-of-the-art electric system boiler to provide an energy-efficient alternative heating and hot water solution to gas.
As a pioneer in sustainable heating solutions, Baxi’s expansion of its established portfolio of electric boilers signals its ongoing commitment to enable installers to offer an alternative heating solution with the removal of gas without compromising on comfort.
Reduced energy use and running costs
Amptec S is open in six models, ranging from 4 kW to 18 kW, offering a versatile solution for homeowners
Manufactured in the UK, the Amptec S is available in six models ranging from 4 kW to 18 kW, offering a versatile solution for homeowners.
With a temperature range adjustable from 30°C to 80°C, modulating ratio up to 9:1 and cycling of its heating elements, the boiler intelligently matches output to demand. This all results in reduced energy use and running costs.
Integration with a wide range of controls
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, an expansion vessel, this allows for reduced installation times and space saving as all pipework is inside the boiler. The Human Machine Interface (HMI) feature improves user experience and assists with maintenance and fault finding.
Its lightweight, compact design fits neatly into a cupboard 290mm deep, significantly reducing the time and space needed for installation.
Sustainable cost savings on energy bills
Created with future adaptations in mind, the Amptec S can be easily paired with Solar PV via PV batteries
Created with future adaptations in mind, in addition to its core features, the Amptec S can be easily paired with Solar PV via PV batteries.
This offers an attractive option for those seeking sustainable cost savings on energy bills, including homeowners. The Amptec S also comes with a 2-year warranty for added peace of mind.
Energy-efficient heat and hot water
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."
He adds, "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."
