What is the Greenstar 35CDi Classic?
The Greenstar 35CDi Classic is a wall-mounted gas system boiler, designed for larger properties with higher heating and hot water demand. As the highest output model in the Greenstar CDi Classic system boiler range, it was a popular choice for homes with multiple bathrooms where a constant and reliable supply of hot water was essential.
Unlike a combi boiler, a system boiler works alongside a separate hot water cylinder. This means it can deliver hot water to multiple taps and showers simultaneously without any loss of pressure, making it well suited to busy family homes.
The 35CDi Classic was part of the Greenstar CDi Classic range, which set the benchmark for efficiency in the UK heating industry and won the Which? Best Buy award multiple times during its production life.
