With outputs of up to 50kW, the Greenstar 8000 Life Regular boiler is part of Worcester Bosch’s most powerful wall hung regular boiler range.
Robust and easy to install, the Worcester Bosch Greenstar 8000 Life Regular boiler features innovative technology to maximise your comfort and help optimise heating and hot water performance. It builds upon the award-winning Greenstar CDi Classic but has a modern new design, can run on 20% hydrogen and comes complete with upgraded controls and wireless connectivity.
How Much Does this Boiler Cost?
Worcester Bosch’s Greenstar 8000 Life Regular comes in 30kW, 35kW, 40kW, 45kW and 50kW outputs to suit your heating requirements. If you want to purchase this regular boiler, you can expect to pay between £1,260 and £2,220, not including installation. Regular boiler installation costs vary based on the installer, the size of your home and the amount of work required. Getting a fixed-price quote from different local and national installers should help you find the best price for the boiler installation, and you must make sure your chosen installer is Gas Safe registered.
How will I know if this Boiler is Suitable for My Home?
Regular boilers require a separate hot water cylinder, usually in the airing cupboard, and tanks in the loft to feed the cylinder and maintain the water level, so they take up quite a bit of space. The Worcester Bosch Greenstar 8000 Life Regular comes in a range of heat outputs to suit your needs and is perfect for homes with more than one bathroom and high demand for hot water.
If you’re unsure whether a regular boiler is a good fit for your home, ask a qualified heating engineer to help you choose the most suitable boiler type. They can also ensure you select the correct boiler size to meet the needs of your household.
Is it a High Efficiency Boiler?
It is. The Worcester Bosch Greenstar 8000 Life Regular is an ErP A-rated boiler with a seasonal efficiency rating of 94%. You can even pair this boiler with the Bosch EasyControl that lets you control your heating and hot water from your smartphone and helps to maximise efficiency and energy savings.
Does this Boiler have a Good Range of Controls and Features?
Yes. The Greenstar 8000 Life Regular is designed to make controlling your heating and hot water easy and comes with a push-button LCD display and easy-to-understand text descriptions. It can run on a mixture of hydrogen and natural gas and is easy to install, service and maintain to help save you money. This regular boiler is also compatible with the Bosch EasyControl to allow you to control and monitor your heating and hot water via an app on your smartphone.
