Royal Crest

†When installed by a Worcester Bosch Accredited Installer with a Greenstar System Filter. The Greenstar 1000 and Greenstar 2000 guarantee is available as standard to both loyalty scheme members and non-WAI's, when fitted with any brand of system filter. Terms and conditions apply.

*Fuel bill savings based on a gas-heated home in Great Britain, when replacing an old gas boiler with a new A-rated condensing boiler with a programmer, room thermostat and thermostatic radiator controls (TRVs). Savings for Great Britain are based on an electricity price of 24.5 p/kWh and a gas price of 6.29 p/kWh, calculated from a weighted average of projected, current and recent energy price caps.
