Baxi combi boilers

Baxi offers several ranges of combi boilers, including Baxi EcoBlue Plus Combi, Baxi EcoBlue Advance Combi, Baxi Duo-tec, Baxi Platinum, Baxi 200 Combi, Baxi 400 Combi and Baxi 600 Combi. Outputs range from 24kW to 40kW, delivering flow rates up to 16.4 litres a minute.

Baxi heat-only boilers

For homes with hot water storage cylinders and a cold water tank in the loft, Baxi’s range of heat only, or regular, boilers include the EcoBlue Heat, EcoBlue Advance Heat, Baxi 200 and Baxi 400 Heat. Outputs range from 12kW to 30kW, so there is a model for every size of home, even larger properties with a higher demand for hot water.

Baxi system boilers

For homes with more than one bathroom or that require more hot water than can be provided by a combi boiler, then a system boiler could be the best choice. A system boiler pumps hot water to the radiators and a sealed hot water storage cylinder. Most of the major components of the heating and hot water system, including the pump and expansion vessel, are built into the boiler, making installation easier and tidier. Baxi has two ranges of system boiler, Baxi Megaflo System and Baxi EcoBlue System, with outputs from 12kW to 32kW.   

You can find more details about the individual products in these ranges in our Baxi boiler reviews.
