All Parameters are the same for Elektra C & BP boilers.
The ELEKTRA BP boilers come with an in-built Cylinder that makes for better hot water delivery.
Elektra SMART BP boilers:
– Have stored hot water, +50 litres at 60°C- 65°C located in the in-built cylinder (37.5 litres) and in the central heating reservoir (10-12 litres).
– The flow rate is set at 8 litres/min (from the factory) but can be adjusted up to 13 litres/min for a faster filling of the bathtub.
– Factory setting @ 8 litres/min works well for filling a bath and having a shower because the hot water is being delivered at higher temperatures.
-It will be possible to have two showers running simultaneously, say 4 litres/minute to each tap then mixed with cold water to bring the flow rate up to 6-8 litres/min, (this would be dependent on water pressure in the house).
-They use initially only 2kw to heat up the water in the in-built cylinder and only use more kW depending on the temperature increase needed.
If you increase the flow rate to 13 litres/min, in time the heat exchange balance will be lost and the temperature will decrease to below 38°C.
Important facts to remember:
A. An average shower uses 21-25 litres of water. The Elektra SMART BP electric boilers hold enough water and back up the cylinder with a constant supply of hot water for continuous delivery of Hot Water.
B. According to BS6700 a standard bathtub (1700 x 700) needs ~100 litres of water at 40°C. This is split into 60% HW and 40% CW.
The Elektra SMART BP electric boilers (preset at 8Litres/min) will fill the bathtub faster at the right temperature.
The cold water mains pressure going into the boiler should be a maximum 2 bar. If the pressure is higher than 2 bar, the installation of a pressure-reducing valve is needed. The incoming pressure should be set between 1.5 – 2.0 bar.

SMART PROGRAM/FUNCTIONS:
You can remotely change the modes (Summer/Winter, Eco/Comfort) and temperature of the boiler heating and hot water using our MyBoiler app.
You can change and set your program for heating on/off.
When the heating is running using the SMART timer program, the heating cannot be controlled by a room thermostat. The best option to control the heating will be using thermostatic radiator valves or using a room thermostat paired with the boiler.
