The Alpha ProTec Plus 115 boiler is an option you may wish to consider if you're looking for a system boiler for your house or flat.
System boilers are suitable for larger homes where there is a higher-than-average demand for hot water and heating.
Through their use of a hot water cylinder, they provide hot water on demand during the day - as long as there's enough water left in the cylinder. Just let the boiler know when you want hot water for your radiators and taps via the programming panel and, subject to tank size and household usage, it'll be there for you.
Unlike heat only boilers, there is no requirement to find room in the attic for a cold water storage tank. System boilers are therefore quicker, easier and cheaper to install.
You should make sure that the boiler you choose for your property is the right "size". And size doesn't mean its physical dimensions. Size means how much power it has - the "output".
A boiler's output level measures how much power it can use to provide you with the hot water you need for your radiators and taps. If a boiler has a high output rate, it can heat greater volumes of water.
If you choose a boiler with too low an output, you'll find that the water coming out of your taps and in your radiators won't be as hot as you want it to be. Choosing one whose output is too high means you'll pay more than you need to for the gas your boiler needs to work.
The Alpha ProTec Plus 115 system outputs at a maximum of 121 kW, so which types of property would this Alpha ProTec Plus 115 System boiler be appropriate for?
An experienced PlumbProud Gas Safe boiler installer would likely recommend that this Alpha ProTec Plus 115 System boiler would be suitable for larger properties including detached homes with 15 or more radiators and two or more bathrooms.
The Alpha ProTec Plus 115 measures TBC mm in height and has a width of TBC mm and a depth of TBC mm.
The Alpha ProTec Plus 115 is a condensing gas boiler - where possible, we always recommend to clients that they choose one of the very latest condensing boilers to take advantage of this technology, which improves year after year.
Condensing boilers are more energy-efficient as they capture and recycle the heat contained in flue exhaust gases and water vapour condensation. They then use this heat to perform tasks like warming up colder water returning to the boiler from the radiators.
By choosing a condensing boiler, you'll help the environment as well as save money on your gas bills.
With so many of us worried about the environmental impact of our personal choices, the relationship between how we heat our homes and climate change has become an important issue for many homeowners.
With central heating being responsible for 14% of greenhouse gas emissions in the UK, your choice of boiler matters. Gas boilers are also responsible for the significant atmospheric volumes of dangerous nitrogen dioxide emissions in larger British cities.
Would the environmental impact of installing a Alpha ProTec Plus 115 system in your home be positive? Let's look at the numbers.
Boilers manufactured after April 2018 in the UK must achieve an "A" on the SEDBUK grading system as well as score a minimum of 92% on a separate energy efficiency test. Prior to that, the minimum was 88% - boilers rated at 88% and 89% were given a “B” rating (90% and higher were given an "A").
An energy efficiency rating describes how much energy the boiler uses and how much it wastes when in use.
The Alpha ProTec Plus 115 was awarded an efficiency rating of 92% with a SEDBUK grading of "A".
The Energy Related Products (ERP) directive is Europe-wide legislation designed to reduce harmful gas emissions at all points of a product's life cycle - from the production process to its actual end use right through to final disposal.
The Alpha ProTec Plus 115 has a rating of "A".
The parts and labour warranty offered with this Alpha ProTec Plus 115 System boiler covers you for 5 years.

If you are searching for a system boiler for your house or flat, the Alpha ProTec Plus 115 is certainly one to consider.
Like heat only boilers, system boilers need a hot water cylinder to work - they're normally installed inside an airing or landing cupboard. However, since system boilers do not require a separate cold water tank, they are popular with homeowners who are planning to convert their loft or where attic space is already at a premium.
They're able to distribute the hot water you need to taps and radiators through (often built-in) circulating pumps and, because there's no water tank to install, they're easier, quicker and cheaper to install than heat only boilers. To get the heat and hot water you need when you need it, just use the control panel to program the times and days you want.
To determine that, we need to consider the size of the boiler. Size doesn't mean how big the boiler is - it means how big its "output" is.
This Alpha ProTec Plus 115 System boiler gets its power from gas and the power it's capable of producing is measured in kilowatts - the output rate is actually a kilowatt rate. The higher the output rate, the more kilowatts a boiler can use when heating water.
If you choose a boiler whose output rate is too low, it may not have enough power to make your water as hot as you would like. If you choose a boiler whose output rate is too high, you won't have to put up with lukewarm water but you will face higher gas bills.
The Alpha ProTec Plus 115 system boiler has an output level of 121 kW, so which types of property would it be appropriate for?
To most experienced Gas Safe boiler installers, the Alpha ProTec Plus 115 system ProTec Plus would be most suitable for larger properties including detached homes with 15 or more radiators and two or more bathrooms.
The Alpha ProTec Plus 115 measures TBC mm high and TBC mm wide by a depth of TBC mm.
We recommend that you choose a condensing boiler wherever possible like the Alpha ProTec Plus 115 - try to go for the latest model, if possible, to take advantage of improving technology.
Condensing boilers capture and recycle the warmth still present in the water vapour condensation and in flue exhaust emissions created by burning gas to make them more efficient and economical to run.
You will save money on your gas bills too, plus condensing boilers are friendlier to the environment.
How we heat our homes and the damage we might be doing to the environment as a result has become an important point of concern to many homeowners worried about climate change.
As much as 14% of the UK’s greenhouse gas production derives from our domestic central heating systems. Gas boilers are responsible for dangerous levels of nitrogen dioxide emissions in Britain's largest cities.
Let's take a closer look at whether installing a Alpha ProTec Plus 115 system would be a good choice for the environment.
The Alpha ProTec Plus 115 has been awarded an efficiency rating of 92% and a SEDBUK band rating of "A".
In the UK, all boilers manufactured and supplied must have an energy efficiency rating of at least 92% or a SEDBUK "A" grade. Until April 2018, the minimum rating was 88% (88% and 89% are equivalent to a SEDBUK "B" rating and anything higher is rated "A").
A boiler's energy efficiency rating describes the amount of energy it uses and wastes when in normal operation.
The ERP, short for the Energy Related Products Directive, is a European directive aimed at encouraging manufacturers to create products that are environmentally friendlier at all stages, including during manufacturing, when the product is in active use, and right through to the point of final disposal.
The Alpha ProTec Plus 115 has a rating of "A" .
The Alpha ProTec Plus 115 boiler comes with a 5 year warranty for parts and labour.
