Worcester has introduced a new range of Greenstar floor-standing gas-fired boilers and made a number of refinements and improvements to its award winning Greenstar wall-mounted series to help make life much easier for busy installers and give their customers a great deal at the same time. New features include the ability to pre-plumb the condensate pipework to the wall mounting jig, pre-wiring of 2 metre length of electrical mains cable to the control board to save installers up to 20 minutes, allowing the boiler to be wired directly to a fusible spur. Other benefit-driven additions to the Greenstar Si, i and Ri boilers include vertical pre-piping assembly of pre-fabricated pipework together with an earth bonding strip. This relieves installers from having to pre-bend pipework behind the boiler should a vertical pipework be necessary.

Sitting alongside the new, improved Si, i and Ri boilers, the Greenstar gas-fired boiler series has been further extended with the introduction of three brand new floor-standing models and an upgraded version of the existing Greenstar Highflow 440 CDi (8 – 30kW). Brand new models available include the Greenstar Highflow 550 CDi (11 to 42kW), the Greenstar FS 30 CDi Regular (8-30kW) and the Greenstar FS 42 CDi Regular (11 to 42kW). A brand new 4.5 metre head condensate pump has been incorporated into the new floor standing models to reduce restrictions on where the boilers are positioned within the home. Worcester has also designed a Flexi Flue liner to make chimney installations easier, which is ideal for replacement scenarios. According to the company’s press release, the boilers now deliver the best hot water performance on the market from a domestic combi boiler, offering 180 litres domestic hot water at an average of a 35oC rise at flow rates of up to 25 litres/minute.
