The Baxi Amptec S12 is a 12 kW electric system boiler for wet central heating — now sold under the Baxi brand, previously Heatrae Sadia. The largest single-phase model in the Amptec S range, it needs no gas supply and no flue, runs both radiators and underfloor heating, and carries its circulation pump, expansion vessel and HMI display inside one compact, UK-built unit that fits a 290 mm deep cupboard.
Applications & suitability
Sealed wet central heating in homes without a gas supply. Runs radiators or underfloor circuits from 30–80 °C, and with pump, expansion vessel and controls built in it drops into a 290 mm deep cupboard with no flue to route.
A new electric heating installation or a like-for-like electric boiler refurbishment — larger flats and houses off the gas grid, social housing and landlord upgrades. Baxi state it can also be used in conjunction with a solar PV battery.
Certified OpenTherm, so it pairs with OpenTherm controls including the Baxi uSense 2 for best efficiency. As a system boiler it works with a separate hot water cylinder, and it joins Baxi’s existing Amptec and Electromax electric range.
Not a combi — stored hot water needs a separate cylinder. This is the top of the single-phase range: if the heat loss calculation comes out above 12 kW, you need the three-phase S14 or S18 and a property with a three-phase supply.
