The UK government has banned gas boiler installations in new build homes from 2025 as part of its net zero by 2050 strategy. This regulatory shift, combined with rising interest in low-carbon heating, has driven strong demand for electric boilers. They are particularly suitable for flats, small homes, and urban properties where heat pumps may be impractical. The UK electric boiler market is growing at over 10% annually and is expected to make up 25–30% of new domestic installations by 2030.

Running costs depend on your home size, insulation, and tariff:

• On a standard electricity tariff, a 2–3 bedroom home typically spends £1,200–£1,800 per year.
• With solar PV and battery storage, costs can drop by 40–60%, often just £600–£1,000 annually.
• Compared to gas, electricity has a higher unit cost, but electric boilers have lower maintenance (no gas safety checks, flues, or servicing) and are 100% efficient at point of use.

• Zero on-site emissions – no combustion gases, improving indoor air quality.
• Compact and silent operation – ideal for flats and modern housing.
• Lower installation costs – no flue, condensate, or gas connection required.
• Future-proofed – compatible with renewable electricity, smart controls, and off-peak tariffs.
• Compliance – helps landlords and developers meet EPC targets and avoid retrofitting.

The Arceus range combines reliability, compliance, and advanced features rarely found in other models:

• WRAS approved and fully certified for UK installation.
• Combi functionality – no need for a separate hot water cylinder.
• Range-rating flexibility – adjust power output to suit different property sizes.
• Hot water delivery at 38–50°C, exceeding many competitor models.
• Comes with a Free Adey MagnaClean Professional 2 filter to protect the system and extend lifespan.

Yes. Electric boilers are particularly well suited for flats, apartments, and smaller urban homes. Unlike heat pumps, they do not require external units or large amounts of space, and unlike gas boilers, they do not need flues, condensate pipes, or gas connections. This makes installation simpler, faster, and more cost-effective in compact environments.

Absolutely. The Arceus range integrates seamlessly with solar PV and battery storage systems. By storing excess solar energy and using it to power your heating and hot water, households can cut running costs by up to 40–60%. Combined with the UK’s increasingly green energy grid, this makes the Arceus one of the most future-proof and sustainable heating options available.
