Struggling for space? Well Firebird has the answer with the all new Enviromax Slimline Combi. At only 520mm wide it will fit in almost every retrofit oil Combi installation.

Following feedback from customers across the UK, Firebird have designed a slimmer condensing combi boiler to address the all to common problem of replacing older standard efficiency combi’s with larger condensing combi’s.

The Enviromax Slimline Combi has a slender storage tank which delivers solid hot water performance with the minimum of energy losses. Even the hot water pipes inside the boiler are insulated to ensure every last watt of energy is saved. Moreover Firebird are confident that the slimmer tank design and pipe insulation will obtain a high efficiency rating when the new European efficiency directive comes into force for oil-fired combi boilers.

Despite the limited space available, components on the Slimline Combi have been arranged to make routine service work as easy as possible. The Slimline Combi allows for multi-directional flueing which gives the installer every possible retrofit option and comes with 7-pin plug to make the task of wiring to mains power and heating controllers as simple as possible. The Enviromax Slimline Combi uses Firebird’s unique integrated heat exchanger design where the condensing heat exchanger is incorporated into the base of main boiler body. This ensures that the slightly acidic condensate is kept away from the main boiler heat exchanger and also avoids the need for a replaceable seal between the main heat exchanger and the condenser.

The Enviromax Slimline Combi will be available from Heating Support in November and Firebird’s National Sales Manager, Barry Brynildsen, will be in store with us from 8am on Monday 26th October for an exclusive first look at the boiler.
