High efficiency boilers
Some
‘condensing’ boilers are quoted as being 95% efficient, but our devices still
work with them for the following 2 reasons.
1. The
quoted efficiency is for when the boiler is first fitted. But as soon as the boiler has been running a
few days, the hot air heat exchanger surfaces start to ‘soot’ up with carbon
deposits, and the water heat exchanger surfaces start building limescale
deposits. Both of these will reduce the
efficiency of the boiler.
Our devices
for water & gas act to help clean the heat exchanger surfaces, restoring the
boiler efficiency to optimum. One installation had a 35% reduction in running
costs. Much of this came from the
clearing of the soot build-up in the boilers which had not been cleaned for several years.
The chart shows the drop
in efficiency caused by Limescale alone.
Our devices
help remove this limescale from surfaces and stop more forming. This cleaning process is automatic, needs no
intervention, no wires or power supplies, and just keeps on working. Expected product working life is 100
years, provifing you keep transferring the units when you upgrade boilers.
2. The quoted efficiency is based on the flame temperature achieved from
burning standard fuel in the boiler.
Our devices seem to change the fuel to cause a better mix of air and
fuel, a faster burn, a higher flame temperature and a more complete burn,
causing fewer partially burnt fuel products, thus less pollution.
Tests done at a Sheffield
steelworks showed that the flame burns hotter when an Ecoflow fuel conditioner is fitted..
