ADDITIONAL INFORMATIONThe property is fitted with a highly sophisticated central heating system, courtesy of a Viessman Vitavalor 300-P 26kW boiler coupled with a hydrogen fuel cell; an innovative domestic fuel cell micro-combined heat and power (micro-CHP) heating appliance designed to generate both heat and electricity simultaneously for residential properties. We are informed by the vendor it produces up to 15kWh of electricity daily, satisfying typical household base demand. The basis of this is that the hydrogen is separated from the gas to create energy, which is used in the first instance but is backed up by the Viessman boiler. This system has been exceptionally reliable and cost-effective and is connected to a feed-in tariff. The property features double-glazing to the majority and external lighting. Carpets, curtains and certain other extras may be available via separate negotiation.
