Compare electric combi and electric system boiler options for wet central heating. Learn where electric boilers may be suitable and why the property's electrical supply must be assessed before selection.
Compare electric combi and electric system boiler options, heating output, hot-water performance, radiator guidance, warranty information and guide prices before requesting a property-specific quotation.
An electric boiler uses electrical energy rather than burning gas to heat water for radiators or wet underfloor heating. Depending on the model, it may be configured as an electric combi that also provides hot water, or as an electric system boiler used with a separate hot-water cylinder.
Electric boilers do not require a gas connection or combustion flue, but they can place a substantial load on the property's electrical installation. Boiler output, phase supply, consumer unit, incoming capacity and expected running costs should be reviewed before a recommendation is made.
Ask About Electric BoilersThese are general indicators. Final suitability depends on the existing system, heat loss, hot-water needs and installation assessment.
Homes where a suitable gas connection is unavailable or not preferred.
Lower heating demand can make an electric boiler more manageable.
Properties where a gas-boiler flue arrangement is difficult or unsuitable.
Installations that pass a professional electrical-load and supply assessment.
Consider the property's electrical supply and running-cost profile alongside the boiler output.
Tell us about your existing fuel, electrical supply, property size, insulation, radiators and hot-water requirements. The Boiler Quote form will open with Electric already selected.
The form should require electrical-supply information: single phase, three phase or not sure; main fuse rating if known; current heating fuel; insulation level; and whether a hot-water cylinder is installed.
The form receives the boiler type and, where applicable, the selected brand and model.
Page-specific questions collect the information needed to assess suitability.
Name, phone, email, postcode and preferred installation timing are collected.
A successful submission opens the Boiler Quote confirmation page and alerts Heating City.
Compare gas boiler configurations if an electric boiler is not the most suitable option for the property.
Gas combi models that provide heating and hot water without a separate cylinder.
View Combi Boilers →Gas system boilers used with a separate hot-water cylinder.
View System Boilers →Traditional heat-only systems with stored hot water and, commonly, loft tanks.
View Regular Boilers →It uses electrical heating elements to heat water that circulates through radiators or wet underfloor heating. Hot-water provision depends on whether the model is combi or system.
Some listed models are described as single-phase, but suitability depends on the required output and the property's electrical capacity. A qualified assessment is required.
It does not burn gas, so it does not require a combustion flue. The installation still needs compliant electrical and plumbing work.
Running cost depends on electricity prices, tariff, heat demand and insulation. Standard-rate electricity commonly costs more per unit than mains gas, so projected costs should be discussed before installation.
It may be possible, but the electrical supply, heat loss, radiators, controls and hot-water requirements must be assessed before conversion.
The final quotation depends on the selected model, electrical-supply capacity, any consumer-unit or supply upgrades, controls, cylinder requirements and the installation work identified during assessment.
