Potterton Gold Boilers: Eldora Gold Boiler News - Multifit GasSaver and Potterton Promax combi boilers help Aster Group crack the Code in Bristol

Eldora Gold Boiler News - Installation of Baxi Group high efficiency boilers, integrated with innovative Multifit GasSaver heat room recovery devices, has enabled Aster Group to successfully meet Level 3 of the Code for Sustainable Homes on its Narroways Road development in Bristol. 
Aster Group who own and manage around 17,000 affordable homes in the central south and south west of England has recently opened its Narroways Road scheme. Constructed by the Leadbitter Group, Narroways features 12 new two bed apartments, eight houses and five retail units. For this affordable development Leadbitter Group specified Baxi Group's Potterton Promax 28 HE Plus Combination boilers, which included Multifit GasSaver units in the flats, to meet the required SAP rating and achieve Code Level 3.
Meeting SAP cost-effectively to reach the right Code Level must be balanced with the need to provide an efficient, appropriate and high quality heating and hot water solution for a particular project. Using the Potterton Promax Combi boilers together with GasSavers provides the optimum solution at Narroways Road. The tenants are familiar with the combi boiler and how it works, and the GasSaver builds on the boiler's own high efficiency to deliver even better performance. This ensures that system specification, installation and operation are as straightforward as possible.
Listed as an approved technology under SAP Appendix Q and recommended for use by the Energy Saving Trust, the Multifit GasSaver can reduce the gas used to heat hot water by up to 37% annually. It sits neatly between the boiler and its flue, recycling the heat from the flue gases which would otherwise be expelled into atmosphere and wasted. This heat is then used to preheat water coming into the boiler from the cold mains supply. 
The Potterton Promax 28 HE Plus is a compact, combination boiler which is SEDBUK Band A rated, capable of a 91.4% operating efficiency. Quick and easy to install, it boasts excellent flow rates and is available in 24, 28 and 33 kW outputs. Other benefits include built in frost protection, a range of flueing options, an optional wireless room thermostat and a pump that automatically runs every 24 hours to keep itself in prime condition.
The Potterton boilers and Multifit GasSavers were installed by local contractor M G Plumbing. The Narroways Road development opened officially on Friday 2nd July.
