The New RenoXtra Included into Energy Saving Trusts New Domestic Low and Zero Carbon Technologies Guide.

The Energy Saving Trust's new Domestic Low and Zero Carbon Technologies Guide (P1.3) is now at final draft stage. A key point of the new document is that passive flue gas heat recovery systems are now included in the guide and it will therefore now include Johnson & Starley's renowned RenoXtra high efficiency combination condensing boiler.

The RenoXtra is available in 30kW and 37Kw models. Each model features a gas saver module - a passive flue gas heat recovery system - built into its cabinet. This provides additional system efficiency by re-cycling flue gas heat which would normally be wasted and expelled to the atmosphere.

Virtually all the energy from the incoming gas supply is extracted and reclaimed energy is stored in the unit before being used to pre-heat the incoming cold water. This results in extra domestic hot water (DHW) efficiency, lower gas consumption and running costs as well as reduced carbon emissions.

The RenoXtra also qualifies for the Appendix Q rating on the SAP database and its test results can be found at www.sap-appendixq.org.uk.
