Vaillant ecoFIT Pure Review

In this blog we’ll be reviewing the Vaillant ecoFIT PURE combi boiler, including its many key benefits, its technical specification and its price.

Vaillant Boilers

Vaillant is a renowned international boiler manufacturer with over 140 years of heritage, beginning in Germany in 1874. 

Vaillant is still operating successfully around the world today as one of Europe's most prominent family businesses, constantly striving to combine energy efficiency with heating functionality in their products.

What is a Combi Boiler?

A combi (combination) boiler is a type of domestic boiler that ‘combines’ a home’s central heating and hot water production into one succinct unit.

A combi takes water directly from the mains and heats it upon usage. After detecting a hot water request, the combi begins to burn gas in a combustion chamber. 

The hot gases rise and move through a series of pipes and into a component called a heat exchanger, the hot gas running through the exchanger then heats the surrounding cold water.

In a conventional boiler system, this process is done according to a programme and the water is stored in a separate cylinder until it’s needed. 

A combi only starts this cycle upon request (initiating the heating or turning on a hot water outlet), therefore the hot water is almost instant.

Signs You Should Upgrade

Apart from the obvious complete breakdown, there are several signs to keep on the lookout for that may be warning you that your boiler is on its way out.

Leaks can be fixed depending on their severity, but should always be treated as a priority issue that if sizable or fast flowing can be a major problem, and needs rectifying ASAP.

Repeated error codes can also be a cause for heating concern especially if they result in a boiler being ‘locked out’ (system forced shut down) for damage limitation purposes.

If your boiler regularly needs some kind of maintenance, or performs sub-optimally most of the time there may be serious component issues.
