NIBE Fighter 360P Electric Boiler - Why We Wont Fit Them and what you should know

[@nazishakhtar1862]

It says your from london. No local person works on electric boilers at all I could really do with some help I’ve got 3 young children a newborn and I beside myself. Please get in touch. Thanks 🙏

While an electric boiler is simple, reliable (presumably cheap to buy) and 100% efficient (ie there is NO wasted heat energy being lost out of any exhaust of flue vent), it is also INCREDIBLY expensive to run during the day, costing typically at least 12 pence per "kilo-Watt-hour" of electrical energy consumed. This compares with a gas-boiler which is only about 80% efficient, but costs only about 30% of an electric boiler to deliver the same amount of heat!! (ie requires only about 3.6 pence per kilo-Watt-hour of heat energy (from the gas) after the boiler efficiency has been accounted for). Even with a 20% rise in the price of gas over winter 2021, the gas boiler would still cost only 36% of the cost of an electric boiler for the same heat output into the house!

I used to have one of these and it was very expensive to run. The pump went wrong and the housing association installed a brand new model, which seems amazing. it costs hardly anything to run.

[@robotomassi2011]

Hi - working on a project at the moment. Can you advise what the new model is?

[@RachelKearney-rq9xb]

Yes pls whats the name of the new model?

[@malinka511km]

New model?

[@nazishakhtar1862]

This boiler makes so much noise it’s absolutely horrible how can I get in touch with you please I need help

[@edc1569]

Amazed anyone can afford direct electrical heating, when a modern heat pump should be delivering 200-350% effective efficiency

[@OmmerSyssel]

Notice who we're dealing with. Stubbornly outdated British people simply don't accept reality ... Seems like they want to be in opposition to real world issues, never mind the costs. 🤷🏼 Take notice and let them head into next disaster 🙄

[@Macro_Abuser]

If the engineer knows what they're doing it should be 350-500% efficient

[@AAgamurad]

Totally agree, bad boiler! Have one of those! In 7 years broke 2 times

[@abeonthehill166]

I have solved the “ cold “ problem…….i walk around my house in a poncho ( clint eastwood style ) and wear a hat in winter ! I only have one electric heater on for a few hours innthe winter and the problem of keeping warm is solved !

[@OmmerSyssel]

How about entering 2022? Ever thought of insulating your house, like the rest of us did some 50(!!!) years ago, instead of nagging and clinging to the useless "stiff upper lip" mode?

[@carnivorous9471]

I have one of these boilers and the cost of running it is insane. I’m currently at home with it off or I’d be spending £200 a month alone just in electric and It breaks every 2 minutes. I hate it.

Google Green-heat renewable Wantage. Look after 100s. This guy ain't got a clue

[@OmmerSyssel]

How old is it actually, and which maintenance were spend on it? No technic runs without maintenance ... Not even in mighty UK

[@OmmerSyssel]

Simply unbelievable anyone recommending electrical heating in this day and age, when even northern Norway and Sweden use heat pumps, since ~ 20 years..! A questionable product doesn't exclude a technology ... Like a RuZZian crap Lada doesn't make cars useless. Choose quality, pay the price and enjoy the comfort!

[@ianpuddick]

The housing stock ie age and build quality and use of insulation is very different to UK stock houses
