Perfect Potterton Boilers, Made in the UK
Potterton boilers are made in the UK and undergo testing using gas, electricity and water. If a boiler doesn’t get a 100% pass rate, then it doesn’t leave the factory. It’s all about perfection.
There are many boilers on the market today, but a Potterton boiler is specially crafted for new build homes and social housing. They are dependable, easy to install and maintain, and have a range of sizes to suit all dwellings. The manufacturer prides itself on its excellent SAP ratings – these are the government’s Standard Assessment Procedure ratings for energy efficiency. This means that an appliance will deliver energy in a way that is good for the environment. The super efficiency will be good for the bank balance of the energy bill payer too.
All of Potterton’s boilers receive a grade A rating for efficiency. There are five different types, one of which will be perfect for your home.
Space Saving
The Promax Combi and the Promax Ultra are combination boilers. They take up less space compared to many appliances as they do not require a water storage tank or a cylinder to store water. Instead, they heat the water internally as you need it. The Ultra delivers up to 16.4 litres a minute. Both versions manage your heating and water demands in a way which can reduce your energy bills.
The Promax System boiler is better for homes that need lots of hot water. On the other hand, the Promax SL Heat is a small appliance that will fit inside a standard kitchen cupboard, but only produces heat.
Finally, the Promax Store is an integrated system comprising hot water storage and a central heating boiler. It fits in a standard airing cupboard and is particularly popular with people who use lots of hot water.
Note that for any work on your Potterton boiler, the product is part of the Baxi family. Therefore, support is guaranteed to be dependable and consistent. In fact, the customer support line is open 365 days a year. Bank holiday and weekend hours are shorter than weekdays though.
Servicing
It’s important to keep up to date with servicing your boiler and the recommendation is to do this annually. Regular servicing makes sure that your appliance is working efficiently, dependably and, possibly most importantly, safely. Checking the health of the appliance makes large repair bills or carbon monoxide poisoning far less likely.
As a homeowner, you are required to have an annual service to keep your warranty valid. If you’re a social housing tenant, then your Housing Association or SLA will arrange servicing for you.
Sometimes a boiler will display an error code. Even if this doesn’t stop your boiler from operating it’s still important to deal with these errors as it could become more serious quicker than you realise. There is a webpage dedicated to these; some you can fix yourself and others will require the help of a professional heating engineer.

Installation of Potterton Boilers
We recommend using approved engineers to fit your boiler. This will give you peace of mind that they did a quality job so that you have reliable, efficient and safe heating and hot water.
Potterton boilers have a ‘pre-plumbing jig’, which means that they are easier and quicker to install. Basically, everything that can be prepared off-site is done so, meaning that the heating engineer needs to spend less time in your home installing the boiler.
Why get a replacement Potterton boiler?
There are a number of reasons someone might decide to upgrade their boiler.
Better efficiency
If you have an inefficient appliance, then it will use more energy than necessary in order to heat your home. What you might not realise is that you could save up to £200 a year with a newer model.
A boiler gets less efficient with age. To keep your boiler functioning properly and efficiently, you should invest in regular servicing.
Lower bills
With a boiler running at a better efficiency, it won’t have to use as much energy in order to heat your home. This results in a smaller heating bill.
Reduce your impact on the environment
More and more people are careful about the effect that they have on the environment. When you switch your older appliance for a brand new boiler that’s more energy efficient, you won’t be using as much energy to heat the property. Regardless of the fuel, replacing your boiler will have a positive impact on your carbon footprint.
