The Elnur Mattira 15 Combi boiler could be suitable for your house or flat if you are looking for a new electric Flow boiler.
Combi boilers have much to recommend them - not least the fact that they save a lot of space. Combination (or combi) boilers were introduced by manufacturers in the 1970s to provide practical central heating and hot water distribution to smaller properties - remember that UK houses and flats tend to be among the smallest in the developed world.
Traditional boilers require one or more storage tanks to keep hot water warm and to store water for heating later. In contrast, combi boilers draw water directly from the mains supply and heat it instantly, removing the need for a storage tank. The heated water is then distributed to your taps and radiators on demand.
While combi boilers are suitable choices for many properties, especially those without a loft, there is also a disadvantage in using them. Water is heated instantly and the volume of water that can be heated at any one time is limited. This can result in less water being sent to taps and showers if more than one is being used simultaneously. In these instances, the water pressure to both points will drop.
To determine that, we need to consider the size of the boiler. Size doesn't mean how big it is - it means how big its "output" is.
The output rate of a boiler tells you how much power it has available to it for heating the water that comes out of your taps and warms your radiators. A higher output rate means that your boiler has more power at its disposal.
You need to make sure you select a boiler with the right output rate. That's because, if your output rate is too high, then your boiler will have more power than it needs but it will cost too much to run. If the output rate is too low, your water may often not be hot enough.
The Elnur Mattira 15 Combi electric Flow's output is 15 kW, so which types of property would this Elnur Mattira 15 Combi Electric Flow boiler be appropriate for?
A Gas Safe boiler installer would recommend that this Elnur Mattira 15 Combi Electric Flow boiler would provide adequate heating and hot water for smaller homes and apartments with up to up to 10 radiators and one bathroom.
The Elnur Mattira 15 Combi measures TBC mm high and TBC mm wide by a depth of TBC mm.
Electric boilers like the Elnur Mattira 15 Combi do not produce exhaust gases, unlike gas and oil boilers, meaning they do not need to be adapted to be "condensing". For a gas or oil boiler to be condensing, it must have a secondary heat exchanger that recycles the warmth present in exhaust gases to reheat water coming back from the radiators.
The effects of climate change on the environment are leading many homeowners to question the damage they might be doing by the way they heat their homes.
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.
Will installing a Elnur Mattira 15 Combi electric Flow in your home be a positive contribution to the environment? The figures below will tell you more.
Gas and oil boilers manufactured in the UK must be tested and, by law, achieve an energy efficiency rating of 92% or above, equivalent to a SEDBUK "A" grade. Most boilers achieve an "A" rating meaning that they are at least 88% efficient.
The energy efficiency of a boiler indicates the amount of energy it uses (and wastes) during operation.
The Elnur Mattira 15 Combi has been assigned an efficiency rating of 36.4% with a SEDBUK rating of "D".
This is very low but why? In reality, nearly every electric boiler on the market has an energy efficiency in operation of near 100%. However, electric boiler energy efficiency appears low on some models because the electricity generation process currently involves burning fossil fuels, which is considered carbon-intensive, and this is factored into the score - unfairly, in our opinion.
The Elnur Mattira 15 Combi boiler offers a parts and labour warranty of 2 years.

When looking for a electric Flow boiler for your house or flat, the Elnur Mattira 15 Combi might be a suitable option for you.
In many properties, combi boilers are more suitable than traditional types of boiler. Combi boilers heat water instantly on demand, which they draw directly from the mains supply, removing the need for storage tanks that can take up valuable space in your home.
A combi boiler is often the right choice for a smaller property, particularly if your home doesn't have a useable loft. As water is heated and delivered immediately rather than being kept warm for hours in an immersion tank, combi boilers reduce electric usage, thereby minimising your heating costs.
The main disadvantage of combi boilers is that they can only heat a certain amount of water at any one time. This means that, if two people are using different taps or showers within your home at the same time, the flow of heated water to each will be reduced, as will the water pressure and temperature.
Whether this Elnur Mattira 15 Combi Electric Flow boiler is right for where you live depends on its size or what its "output" level is. Size does not mean its physical dimensions, however - it means how powerful it is.
The output of a boiler is measured in kilowatts and indicates how much energy it can use to heat the water needed for your radiators, taps and showers. The greater the output, the more water it can heat.
A boiler whose output is too high will give you hot water and warm radiators but also higher electric bills, whereas a boiler whose output is too low will result in cheaper electric bills but the water might not always be as hot as you want it to be.
The output of the Elnur Mattira 15 Combi electric Flow is 15 kW, so which types of property would this model be appropriate for?
A heating engineer would recommend that the Elnur Mattira 15 Combi electric Flow boiler would be a suitable installation option for smaller homes and apartments with up to 10 radiators and one bathroom.
The Elnur Mattira 15 Combi is TBC mm [H] by TBC mm [W] by TBC mm [D] in size.
Electric boilers like the Elnur Mattira 15 Combi don't need to be modified to be "condensing" boilers because they operate differently to gas and electric boilers. Condensing non-electric boilers recycle the exhaust gases created as part of their operation to, among other tasks, heat water coming back from radiators. Electric boilers do not create exhaust gases and are, by design, more efficient and economical to run.
How we heat our homes is an issue which many homeowners worry about as the world combats climate change and environmental damage.
14% of the total amount of greenhouse gases produced by the UK comes from the central heating systems we use. In some of Britain's biggest cities, gas boilers create dangerous levels of nitrogen dioxide in the atmosphere.
Do the figures suggest that installing the Elnur Mattira 15 Combi electric Flow at your property would help in the fight against climate change?
Gas and oil boilers manufactured in the UK and/or supplied to UK domestic properties must achieve a legal minimum energy efficiency rating of 92% (equivalent to a good "A" grade using the SEDBUK scale). Prior to this, the minimum was 88% (88% and 89% are a "B" SEDBUK grade and anything at 90% or above is an "A" grade).
The energy efficiency rating of a boiler refers to the amount of energy it needs to use to perform its everyday functions as well as the amount of energy it wastes.
The Elnur Mattira 15 Combi has been given a rating of 36.4% for its energy efficiency, equivalent to a SEDBUK "D" rating.
This may appear low to you and you'd be right, especially given the advances made in electric boiler technology over the last 5 years. However, the comparison is, in our opinion, unfair because the operational energy efficiency of most electric boilers is either 98% or 99% - a level no oil or gas boiler has yet reached. The reason for some boilers' poor scores is that the electricity they need to operate is generated by the burning of fossil fuels, which the assessors consider carbon-intensive.
