What is the Mitsubishi Ecodan Boiler System?

Thursday, September 22nd, 2011

Many families across the UK are beginning to consider the impact that their household is having on the environment. If your family are looking to make a start on becoming more energy efficient, then investing in a more modern boiler system is a great first step to take. Here at Oakland Group we can supply and install the Mitsubishi Ecodan boiler system which will lower both your energy consumption, and your monthly bills.

How Does It Work?

An Ecodan boiler features an inverter-driven heat pump compressor. In simple terms, this means that it converts free energy from the air into heating by raising the air temperature.  The inverter control is used to limit the output of the system, meaning that the amount of energy which is produced is the amount you need. This precision makes the Ecodan system ideal for the varying temperatures of the UK.

3 Times as Efficient

Whilst conventional boilers use 1 kw of energy to create less than 1 kw of heat, the Ecodan system transforms that 1 kw into 3.6 kw of heat energy. This is by far the most efficient way to heat your home, and by powering your boiler using renewable energy sources like solar panels Worcester, then your central heating can have a zero carbon rating, making it even better for the environment.

Perfect For Everyone

The Ecodan boiler system is a great energy solution for every family.  It is easy to install and can be fitted by electricians, plumbers or heating engineers, which means that reducing your energy consumption can be straightforward and hassle free. A self-contained unit which is installed on the outside of your property, it allows you to enjoy all of the benefits of a new heating system with minimal disruption to your home.

When you want to become more energy efficient whilst also enjoying heating which is reliable, effective and affordable, then the Mitsubishi Ecodan boiler system could be the solution you have been looking for. Contact the experts here at Oakland Group today for more advice and you can begin to look forward to a more sustainable future.

Things to Do If a Boiler Breaks Down

Monday, May 23rd, 2011

When your boiler breaks down, there are a few simple steps you should do before calling out a plumber. There’s no need to panic, especially when you’ve got the experts at PCS Maintenance here to give you a helping hand. We have extensive experience in boiler repair London, and as such we can give you a handy checklist to go through before rushing to the phone and calling your local plumber.

Step One

Firstly, it may seem simple but double check that your boiler is turned on. It is not uncommon to forget to check the simple things, and our plumbers have often been called out to fix a repair which simply needed to be switched on, rather than repaired.

Step Two

Look at the pressure gauge on your boiler to check the water pressure. Ideally, the pressure should be between 1 and 1.5. Your boiler’s pressure should not fall below 0.5 or rise above 2.5. However, if you’ve found that it has fallen, then you can re-pressurise the system by the filing loop. If you still have the manual for your boiler, this will have clear instructions on how to carry out this simple procedure.

Step Three

Try resetting your boiler before calling out a plumber. There should be step by step instructions in your manual on how to complete a reset. This usually resolves any electrical faults with the boiler and gets the boiler working again.
Step Four

If you boiler is still faulty after carrying out the previously mentioned checks, it is best to note down any unusually noises or leaks. This can save your plumber time, as the problems which you describe could give a clear indication of the problem to a professional.

If you are searching for a plumber local to you, then you should contact PCS Maintenance for a registered plumber who can carry out a reliable boiler repair London. To find out more information regarding our services phone us on 020 7000 31 96.
