New April 92% ErP boilers

[scoz]

Npower have said they would fit a Ideal logic C30 combi boiler for my daughter under the energy saving improvement plan. Does this boiler comply with the new April directive of 92% ErP and is this boiler any good.

 

[Harvest Fields]

I thought all logics were 91% ish. But I could be wrong.

 

[scoz]

Thanks Harvest, does this mean it does not comply with the new ErP and should not be fitted

 

[Harvest Fields]

I believe so but as I said before I could be wrong. But my understanding is that it needs to be 92% without controls.

To comply with boiler plus it would need weather comp, or the correct controls

Just a quick query, what happens to all the new boilers that are not ERP compliant

I was thinking almost each new boiler will be 92% erp but could be wrong as well

Back to the factory?

I thought the controls/ weather comp / fghr upped the percentage

Nope. Not as I am aware

 

[Scott_D]

Thinking back to the erp labels ( I didn't do many)
You added all the bits together and got a combined figure

91.1% my understanding is adding suitable controls raises it to the required efficiency of 92% level Gross just looked on installer connect it says says as below ?. kop

 

[Harvest Fields]

I’m sure that I saw somewhere that you couldn’t use controls to bring the ERP up. I will look into it but also just saw this. So what does this mean

It says homeowners must then select not including

 

[S.P.S.]

Just remember it is only the space heating element of the boiler that needs to be 92%

You HAVE to look in the boilers MI’s at the ERP data, it will give you the space heating seasonal efficiency figure, which is the figure we need to be 92% or above.

The Logic Combi range has 94% space heating seasonal efficiency.

All manufacturers will be ensuring boilers are upto this level as standard. You won’t fond that many that aren’t already.

You will be fine with the C30 it’s a good boiler.

See below for highlighted figure from MI’s
