The new boilers provide VT LPHW to the offices and canteen area aswell as a CT circuit on a priority basis to 1No Extreme HWS loading cylinder. The 500 litre unvented cylinder ensures maximum efficiency is achieved by the condensing boilers (at a Δt 30°C) whilst the Extreme is both loading and producing instantaneous HWS at 60°C.
