Baxi Platinum Compact Combi Boiler Review – Installed by Afterglow Plumbing & Heating in Birmingham




If you’re looking for a new boiler installation in Birmingham, few options are as reliable as the Baxi Platinum Compact Combi Boiler. At Afterglow Plumbing & Heating, we’ve been helping homeowners across Birmingham and the West Midlands upgrade their heating systems for years, and the new Baxi Platinum Compact range (25 kW, 30 kW, and 36 kW) has quickly become one of our top recommendations.





Why Birmingham Homeowners Love the Baxi Platinum Compact



    • Compact design – Just 290 mm deep, it fits neatly into a standard kitchen cupboard. Perfect for smaller Birmingham homes and apartments.
  • Whisper quiet – Ideal if your boiler is in your kitchen or open-plan space.
  • Highly efficient – A-rated for heating and hot water, cutting down on fuel bills.
  • Smart modulation – Reduces output to as low as 3 kW when demand is low, saving even more energy.



For homeowners in Birmingham, where space and efficiency matter, it’s a boiler that ticks all the boxes.





Building on the Success of the Baxi 800 MRK1



We’ve installed many Baxi 800 MRK1 boilers across Birmingham, and they’ve always been popular for their robust build quality, brass components, and ease of servicing.


The new Platinum Compact improves on the 800 MRK1 by offering:


  • Even more compact dimensions
  • Higher efficiency
  • Hydrogen-ready performance (up to 20%)
  • Easier servicing with front-access design



It’s everything we loved about the 800, modernised for today’s homes.
