Offering a full hybrid solution, the Alpha E-Tec 33 boiler is connected with the Alpha E-Tec EHP external heat pump unit. 

To ensure that the property is heated efficiently, Alpha’s new hybrid system automatically adjusts the heating flow and water temperature in the radiators depending on demand and also the outside temperature.

Working to be as efficient as possible, the system cleverly monitors live energy prices with the outdoor temperature to calculate the most efficient option. The maximum temperature at which the water is heated can also be adjusted for the heating circuit. However, this will still vary depending on outside temperatures.

For homes without an airing cupboard or those looking to free up some cupboard space, the E-Tec Hybrid provides instantaneous hot water without the need for hot water storage. The new system can also run on existing pipework, meaning that the homeowner doesn’t need to worry about any drastic changes to their heating system, such as upgrading radiators.

Features:

  • Always chooses the cheapest fuel source based on the current energy tariff
  • Instantaneous hot water on demand; no need for stored hot water
  • No need to upgrade existing heating system; minimising install costs
  • Simple hydronic layout; easy to install, typically one-day installation
  • Hydrogen blend compatible (up to 20% hydrogen)
  • Anti-freeze protection, without the need of glycol
  • Five year warranty on approved and correctly installed/maintained installation

Daniel Wilden, Renewable Product Manager for Alpha, commented: “The new E-Tec Hybrid solution offers the best of both worlds in renewable technology of an air-to-water heat pump with a familiar gas condensing boiler.

“With more and more people looking to move towards renewable energy and save money on their energy bills, the E-Tec Hybrid is the perfect solution in moving towards a greener heating alternative.  

Alpha encourages installers to attend its free training centres in order to improve product knowledge and skills, and stay up to date with the latest innovations and gain practical hands-on experience.
