If you are searching for a combi boiler for your house or flat, the Worcester Bosch Greenstar 2000 25kW is certainly one to consider.
Combi boilers were introduced by manufacturers in the 1970s to offer British homeowners a way to cheaply and reliably heat their homes and have hot water without taking up too much space. Previously, most boilers had one or more storage tanks, which either heated water and kept it warm or held water to be heated later.
With combi boilers, there is no need to find space for large tanks around your home as the hot water needed for your radiators and taps is available on demand. Combi boilers do this by drawing water from your mains supply, heating it instantly whenever you need it and then distributing it to where it's needed in the home.
The major disadvantage to combi boilers is that they have a maximum capacity for heating water. In a larger household, water pressure, volume and temperature will drop if two or more people are trying to use hot water at the same time.
Whether this Worcester Bosch Greenstar 2000 25kW Combi boiler is right for where you live depends on its size or "output" level. Size does not mean its physical dimensions, however - it means how powerful it is.
Measured in kilowatts, a boiler's output level is an indication of the amount of power it has available to it to heat the water coming from your taps and for warming your radiators. The greater the output level, the more water it can heat.
If you choose a boiler whose output level is too low, you'll often find that the water is not as hot as you want it to be. If you choose a boiler whose level is too high, you'll be paying higher gas bills than you need to for years to come.
The output of the Worcester Bosch Greenstar 2000 25kW combi is 25 kW, so which types of property is this Worcester Bosch Greenstar 2000 25kW Combi boiler appropriate for?
A PlumbProud boiler engineer would recommend that this Worcester Bosch Greenstar 2000 25kW Combi boiler is suitable for smaller homes and apartments with up to 10 radiators and one bathroom.
With combi boilers, you need to consider the flow rate as well as the output rate. The flow rate (shown in litres per minute) measures how much water your boiler can draw from the mains which it then instantly heats and distributes to your taps and radiators.
However, a high flow rate is of little to no value if your local water pressure is low. If your local mains water pressure is 10l/m and your flow rate is 12l/m, your boiler will only be able to process 10l/m.
If you live in an area with high water pressure but your household has multiple bathrooms and/or radiators and many members of your household want to use hot water at the same time (like morning or evening baths or showers), it's unlikely that you'll be able to find a combi with a high enough flow rate.
As an indication, a power shower needs about 10 litres of water per minute, whereas the flow rate of this Worcester Bosch Greenstar 2000 25kW Combi boiler is 10 L/ml/m.
When our engineer comes out to quote you, they may recommend that you choose a heat only boiler or system boiler instead if your family's demand for hot water is higher than normal.
The measurements of the Worcester Bosch Greenstar 2000 25kW are 724 mm by 400 mm by 300 mm.
With more and more of us concerned about environmental issues and climate change, how we heat our homes has become an important issue to many homeowners.

If you decide to install a Worcester Bosch Greenstar 2000 25kW combi in your home, will you be helping the environment with your choice? Let’s have a look at the figures.
An energy efficiency rating of 92% or above is a legal requirement for all boilers manufactured and installed in the UK today. 92% is equivalent to a low-to-middle "A" grade on the "Seasonal Efficiency of Domestic Boilers" (SEDBUK) scale.
Energy efficiency measures how much energy a boiler uses and wastes in the course of its normal operation. The lower the waste, the lower your gas bills.
The Worcester Bosch Greenstar 2000 25kW was awarded an efficiency rating of "93%", equivalent to a "A" rating on the SEDBUK system.
All products that consume energy throughout their lifespan must comply with the Energy Related Products (ERP) Directive.
Companies are legally obliged to reduce harmful gas emissions at all stages of a product's life cycle, from initial manufacturing right through to final disposal as well as when the product is in actual use.
The Worcester Bosch Greenstar 2000 25kW scores "A" for heat and "A" for water.

If you are considering installing a combi boiler in your house or flat, then the Worcester Bosch Greenstar 2000 25kW boiler is certainly worth investigating.
Traditional boilers have one or more large tanks in which they store either heated water or water to be heated later. Manufacturers originally introduced combi boilers to the market in the 1970s to enable homeowners to save space - UK residential properties are among the smallest in the Western world.
Combi boilers don't need these tanks because they draw water directly from the mains and instantly heat it on demand thanks to the technology inside the boiler. Combi boilers then distribute this hot water to your home’s taps and radiators when needed.
The most significant disadvantage of combi boilers is that they are not ideal in larger homes where multiple people might want hot water at the same time – for example, if someone is having a shower while another wants to wash dishes in the kitchen. This is because combi boilers have a maximum volume of water that they can heat. When two people want hot water at the same time, the water temperature, pressure and volume delivered to both points drop.
It's best to choose a boiler whose size or "output" is right for your property. With a boiler, however, size does not mean how big the boiler is, it means how much power it has.
The amount of hot water you get from showers, bathrooms, and sinks and heat from your radiators depends on your boiler's output (measured in kilowatts). The higher the level of output, the better your home will be heated and you can be more certain that the water from your taps will be as hot as you want.
However, you must be careful. You might not get the hot water you want if your boiler output is too low. If it's too high, you'll be paying more than you need to for gas.
With the Worcester Bosch Greenstar 2000 25kW combi's output at 25 kW, which types of property would this Worcester Bosch Greenstar 2000 25kW Combi boiler be most appropriate for?
Most experienced boiler engineers would recommend this Worcester Bosch Greenstar 2000 25kW Combi boiler as a suitable option for smaller homes and apartments with no more than up to 10 radiators and one bathroom.
Flow rates are important when choosing a combi boiler as well as output rates.
A combi boiler's flow rate (measured in litres per minute) describes how much water it can instantly heat then distribute to the taps and radiators in your home - you will need to factor this into your decision on a new combi boiler. This Worcester Bosch Greenstar 2000 25kW Combi boiler's flow rate is 10 L/m.
If you have a lot of radiators and bathrooms in your home and there's lots of demand within your household for hot water at the same time (like morning or evening showers and baths), you'll need a boiler with a high flow rate.
However, it's not quite that simple. If your local mains water pressure is low, you're not going to gain any benefit from choosing a combi boiler with a high flow rate because that higher flow rate doesn't mean it can draw more water from the mains pipes.
When our engineer comes out to quote you, they may recommend that you choose a heat only boiler or system boiler instead if your family's demand for hot water is higher than normal.
The Worcester Bosch Greenstar 2000 25kW boiler is 724 mm high, 400 mm wide, and 300 mm deep.
How we heat our homes and the effect that has on climate change has become important to many homeowners worried about the environment.
Dangerous levels of nitrogen dioxide emissions in larger UK cities are caused by gas boilers in domestic properties, and 14% of the UK’s greenhouse gas production is as a result of central heating.
Will choosing to install a Worcester Bosch Greenstar 2000 25kW combi in your home help the environment? Let's review the figures.
By law, the minimum level of energy efficiency for boilers manufactured in the UK is 92%, equivalent to a good SEDBUK “A” rating. Prior to April 2018, the minimum was 88% - boilers whose energy efficiency levels were 88% or 89% were given a "B" rating on the SEDBUK scale and those at 90% or higher were given an "A".
The energy efficiency rating awarded to each boiler indicates the amount of energy that is wasted when in operation.
Following testing, the Worcester Bosch Greenstar 2000 25kW was given a 93% energy efficiency rating and a SEDBUK grading of "A".
The Energy Related Products (ERP) Directive is a European directive which applies to all products that consume energy over their lifetime.
