Boilers
Unique oil-fired condensing boilers for internal and external installations with outputs from 15 to 75kW.
Why Should You Install An Energy Efficient Boiler?
A great deal of media coverage has been given to
Global warming and the environmental damage
caused by burning fossil fuels. There are many
contributing factors, but one area that can make a
significant difference and reduce the amount of
harmful greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is to
install a more efficient central heating boiler.
Older oil-fired boilers, designed at a time when very
little consideration was given to environmental
issues, can operate with efficiency levels as low as
65%. A modern oil-fired condensing boiler, like the
Grant Vortex, has been tested and approved to
operate at very high efficiency levels, achieving a
considerable reduction in harmful emissions.What Is A condensing Boiler?
What Is A Condensing Boiler?
Condensing boilers differ from traditional boilers in
that they are designed to capture heat normally lost
through the flue system during the combustion
process. Unlike traditional oil-fired boilers the Grant
Vortex condensing boiler has a built-in stainless steel
heat exchanger incorporating Grant’s unique
turbulator baffle system, which cools the gases to a
point where the latent heat, normally lost to the
atmosphere through the flue, can be usefully
extracted. The additional energy recovered enables
the boiler to operate continuously at much higher
efficiency levels, resulting in lower heating and hot
water running costs.

Easy To commission, Service & Maintain
As with all oil-fired appliances, Grant Vortex Condensing Boilers require commissioning at the time of installation. This simple process ensures that the boiler is working at peak efficiency, which in turn will result in lower running costs and long term reliability.
Annual maintenance is also made easy be Grant's cleverly designed front service access to both the burner and all the internal serviceable parts. This feature enables Grant Vortex Condensing Boilers to be fitted neatly and unobtrusively within either the kitchen or the utility room environment. Alternatively, if internal siting is a problem, space saving outdoor versions are available. |
