E.ON Offers £700 Off A New Condensing Boiler

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

E.ON Offers £700 Off A New Boiler To Help ConsumersE.ON, one of the UK’s largest power and gas companies, has reaffirmed its commitment to helping households reduce their gas bills, by offering £700 off a new boiler for a limited time only.*

For people over the age of 60, this amount could increase to £1,000.

The Energy Saving Trust has advised that replacing an older boiler with a new energy efficient condensing boiler, could save households around a third on their heating bills, which with full heating controls, could save UK households as much as £270 a year.

As well as the financial savings, energy efficient boilers also reduce household carbon dioxide emissions by up to 875kg a year.

In addition to immediate and ongoing savings on heating bills, replacing an old boiler can also add value to the home, making it easier to sell in a slow market, with research from the Energy Saving Trust showing that nearly 70% of Britons believe that energy efficiency is important when buying a home, and that over a third of home buyers would be put off buying a property with an outdated heating system.

David Topping, Head of Commercial Operations at E.ON UK Retail, said: “It’s a difficult time for many families in the UK and we want to do what we can to help with this. By providing £700 or more, off a new energy efficient boiler, we can reduce the initial expense and households can benefit from the immediate reduction in their heating bills.”

The New ALPHA Pro Pump Can Cut Your Energy Bills

Saturday, September 16th, 2006

The Alpha Pro Central Heating Pump from GrundfosGrundfos, the global leader in pump manufacture, has launched a new energy saving circulator pump, the ALPHA Pro, the first in the world to bear the European ‘A’ energy rating.

In every home heated by radiators there is a circulator pump that circulates the hot water. 

The smart ALPHA Pro energy-efficient central heating pump works by matching its speed to the actual requirements of your radiators, while older pumps found in most British homes, operate at a constant speed every day, irrespective of the amount of heat actually needed.

Therefore they use up to five times more energy than an electronically controlled pump that adjusts the speed to the actual heat requirements of the system.  This equates to an annual cost in an average UK house of approximately £57. 

Replacing your old central heating pump with the ALPHA Pro reduces your energy use by up to 80%, thus saving you money on your electricity bills, whilst protecting the environment.

An LED display on all Alpha Pro pumps displays the actual power consumption in watts, providing instant visual feedback to the user.

The annual electricity cost using the ALPHA Pro is approximately £12.

Total annual average saving is £45.

The Grundfos ALPHA Pro domestic circulator pump costs around £120 and can be purchased through UK local installers.
