This compact yet powerful boiler redefines hydronic heating for both new construction and retrofit projects, ensuring efficiency, simplicity, and long-term reliability.
Why Choose an Electric Boiler?
Traditional gas or oil systems are effective but come with challenges: venting requirements, fuel delivery, and greenhouse gas emissions. The IBC Electric Boiler eliminates all of that. With 100% efficiency and zero CO₂ output, it’s a sustainable, future-ready solution for today’s energy-conscious market.
It’s ideal for:
- Homes or buildings where natural gas or propane isn’t available
- Backup heat for heat pumps or solar systems
- Supplemental heating in hydronic installations
- Projects targeting green building certifications
Whether it’s a home, apartment, or light commercial space, the EBX provides consistent comfort while reducing both complexity and environmental impact.
Built for Ontario’s Climate
Ontario’s temperature swings can challenge any heating system — but the IBC EBX Series rises to the task. Available in 4kW, 8kW, 10kW, and 12kW models, it supports up to 41 MBH of heating output. The system is perfect for both primary and secondary applications, automatically adjusting power output to match demand.
The EBX operates efficiently in cold conditions, maintaining optimal performance even when used as a backup for heat pumps in freezing temperatures.
Zero Emissions, Maximum Efficiency
Every watt of power consumed by the EBX is converted directly into usable heat — making it 100% energy efficient. Unlike combustion systems, there’s no venting, no exhaust, and no wasted energy.
Contractors and property owners gain:
- Zero greenhouse gas emissions
- No venting or gas piping required
- Lower installation costs
- Long service life with minimal maintenance
By choosing electric, you’re not just installing a boiler — you’re investing in a carbon-free heating future.
Titanium Strength, Built to Last
Durability is key to long-term system performance. Every EBX unit comes equipped with dual titanium heating elements, engineered to resist scaling and corrosion. Titanium offers superior heat transfer and long-term stability, ensuring years of worry-free operation.
With only two moving parts — the pump and the flow meter — the EBX reduces potential points of failure and extends service life.
Smart Controls, Simple Setup
The EBX’s digital controller makes configuration fast and intuitive. Contractors can easily set the system to operate in Set-Point Mode or Outdoor Reset Mode, allowing automatic adjustment based on outdoor temperature.
Key control features include:
- Full modulation from 0–100%
- 3-speed boiler pump built-in
- Flow sensor and high-limit safety
- Plain English menus for faster setup
- Optional outdoor sensor for climate-responsive heating
This intelligent design ensures perfect comfort with minimal energy use.
Compact, Flexible, and Easy to Install
Space is precious, especially in modern builds. The EBX’s compact size and no-venting design allow installation virtually anywhere — from utility closets to mechanical rooms.
Its aligned side water connections make it simple to connect multiple units in series, while the top-access cover provides quick element replacement. Contractors appreciate how installation takes less time and fewer materials — saving both labour and cost.
Additional benefits:
- Compatible with IBC AHU air handlers
- Works with propylene glycol systems
- Includes integrated drain port
- Requires only minimal clearance and infrastructure
Safety First
Every EBX Electric Boiler comes with built-in protection systems that ensure safe operation:
- High-temperature limit switch
- Flow sensor safety
- Pressure relief valve (factory installed)
- Electronic high-limit temperature lockout at 190°F
These features make the EBX one of the safest and most dependable electric boilers available in Canada.
Multi-Boiler Applications and Heat Pump Integration
Need more capacity? The EBX can be easily staged with additional units for larger heating loads. It also pairs seamlessly with heat pumps and solar systems, automatically providing backup heat when renewable sources can’t meet demand.
Hydronic professionals can combine EBX units using hydraulic separators, check valves, and primary-secondary piping for precise flow management and balanced system operation.
