The Potterton Gold 6kw Heat Only Electric Boiler runs radiator heating on electricity with no flue, a good size for a typical one or two bedroom flat with modest heat demand. Buy it from Plumb Parts in Glasgow.

Description

For a modest home, the Potterton Gold 6kw Heat Only Electric Boiler is a mid-small model in the Gold electric range. It heats a wet radiator system on electricity, with no gas and no flue, and it is compact enough to sit in a kitchen or a cupboard.

Where 6kW of electric heat suits

Six kilowatts covers a lot of one and two bedroom flats, depending on insulation and how many outside walls there are. It is a common pick when replacing storage heaters with proper wet central heating, or in buildings where a gas boiler cannot go. With the Potterton Gold indirect cylinder, it can also heat a cylinder of hot water.

Common Questions

How many radiators will a 6kW electric boiler run?

It depends on the size of the rads and the heat loss of the rooms, not just the count. A heat loss calculation gives a proper answer.

Why can the Potterton Gold electric not run underfloor heating?

Potterton state this model is not suitable for underfloor heating. Use a boiler that the maker lists for underfloor systems.

Does the 6kW boiler need its own circuit?

Yes, it should be on a dedicated circuit sized by an electrician for its full load. Do not share it with a shower or cooker circuit.

Getting the details right: a Glasgow view

Get the heat loss worked out, then pick the output, because an undersized electric boiler will run flat out and still leave rooms cold. Have an electrician check the supply and fit a dedicated circuit. The boiler uses solid state switching with no moving parts in the heating side, a soft start to avoid surges, and a min and max control for the flow temperature. Status lights on the front show what it is doing. As there is no burner, it runs almost silently.
