storage heaters and other outdated forms of central heating. The Fusion range has been developed over the years to offer a ‘Plug and Play’ solution to meet the demands of professional installers and the various problems presented by the different property types in the UK. Originally a single Fusion Standard Boiler, the range has grown to meet the increasing demands of Building Regulations and the need for renewable products within the UK. At EHC we are committed to producing the finest products to meet our customer’s needs. After months of consultation with the many engineers that install the Fusion Boiler on a daily basis, our Design Team endeavoured to improve this award winning Product. The Comet Electric Boiler is the outcome of many hours
of product development which has taken Electric Boiler Technology to a new level. This outstanding Boiler has all the hallmarks of the traditional Fusion range however with its improved appearance and size coupled with state of the art components it is without question the best value Electric Boiler on the market today. Apart from its modern sleek design the key developments within the unit include an Automatic Bypass, Digital Pressure Sensor, Integral Magnetic Filter and Stainless Steel Heat Exchanger. The Comet range includes 6, 9, 12 and 14.4kW models in single phase and a 24kW 3- Phase model. All boilers within the range are suitable for Wet Systems including Underfloor Heating.
Unlike most electric boilers, all EHC boilers are designed to eliminate unnecessary external plumbing and pipe work.
will modulate so that both electricity consumption and running costs are controlled through all heating cycles.
The Comet boiler has been engineered to include the pump, auto-air vent, automatic bypass and expansion vessel within the compact casing. A magnetic filter is also pre-plumbed within the unit for added protection which will enhance the life of the boiler.
The easy-to-use control panel allows both the installer and home owner to identify the operating temperatures on the flow and return, system flow rate and kW output of the boiler at any given time. The digital pressure sensor within the unit allows you to take an accurate reading of the system pressure at all times.
With the sleek design and integral pipework the boiler can be discreetly located in either a cupboard or wall mounted e.g. in the kitchen area.
The control panel also enables the installer to utilise the inbuilt self diagnostic feature during installation or routine maintenance.
To ensure maximum efficiency, all Comet boilers incorporate six stage heating using a single stainless steel heat exchanger. With this unique facility the boiler
The operating temperature of the boiler can be adjusted using the control panel and range from 20 degrees through to a maximum 85 degrees.
Our single phase boiler outputs are 6kW, 9kW and I2kW. The I4.4kW is available for properties that require a higher output. For multiple boiler installations it is also possible to install the boiler in series to suit non domestic situations. In light commercial properties with a 3-Phase electricity supply, we supply a 24kW output boiler within the Comet range. Due to the proven reliability of our products we have no hesitation in offering a 2 year warranty for both Parts and Labour.

Can be installed as part of an Electric Wet Central Heating System
• Ultra lightweight design • Easy to install • Low Water Content • Low Profile models available • 15 years Guarantee • Economical to operate • Energy saving • Choice of Thermostatic heads • Rapid heat up times • Suitable for all fuel types • Unique Wall mounting kit The EHC Mercury radiator range is a unique concept in wet system radiators. An aluminium outer case conceals an internal copper pipe heat exchanger which transfers heat to the radiator culminating in a high performance and energy saving heater.
temperatures and as such require larger radiators to provide the same room temperature as traditional heat sources such as Gas and Electric Boilers. The internal design of the Mercury Radiators makes them the perfect solution when installed with Heatpump systems.
The design of the radiator ensures that there is no likelihood of internal corrosion of the radiators.
Aluminium conducts heat 4 times quicker than steel which enable our radiators to reach temperature much faster than steel radiators. Additionally the design of the product ensures that the surface area does not get burning hot to touch.
Mercury radiators are constructed to provide all the benefits offered by Low Water content appliances as less water within the system adds up to reduced running costs.
The Mercury radiators can be installed as part of an Electric Wet Central Heating System and as such we would recommend the Comet Electric Boiler which also boosts Low Water Content heating benefits.
These energy efficient radiators use a fifth of the water used by a standard steel panel radiator of the same size.This results in annual energy savings of up to 15%.
With the various alternatives available on the market today choosing the right option can often be confusing and as such our highly experienced staff would welcome the opportunity to discuss all your heating requirements and advise you accordingly.
With the benefits of both Convection and Radiant heat you will enjoy added comfort throughout the home. This contemporary designed radiator is suitable for use with all types of boilers: gas, electric, oil, solid fuel and LPG. Many of the new generation heating solutions such as Air & Ground Heatpumps generate lower system
