Ever jumped into the shower only to be met with an icy blast and immediately leap back out?

That’s where the new Navien NCB700, with its built-in recirculation pump — the first boiler in the UK to have this handy tech — can help cut down those pre-shower waiting times by delivering powerful hot water, quickly and efficiently to up to three bathrooms simultaneously. All while slashing your monthly energy bills and earning you some all-important eco-friendly brownie points.

Reducing water waste and saving money

The game-changing recirculating pump works by ensuring that hot water is always available as close to the point of consumption, like your taps, as possible.

This not only means that the hot water you need is ready as soon as you need it while providing the sort of hotel-level warmth you’d expect from a luxury spa, but also the added efficiency will cut down any water wastage and save you on energy bills.

Easy to install and use

Sounds good right? However, getting everything up and running is usually where things get complicated. But it doesn’t have to be, and with NCB700 gas boilers able to be retrofitted into any property without incurring any expensive plumbing changes, Navien has taken a huge amount of stress out of what can be a trying process. Plus, the NCB700 is perfect for an extension, as it can still simultaneously deliver hot water for up to three bathrooms, without the need to install a cumbersome cylinder.

Once installed, you’ll also be met with a high-tech digital display panel that allows you to easily check the boiler’s current state, without the need for an installer or engineer. Back in the office on the regular? You can also check it via a smartphone from anywhere in the world.

Should a ‘low water pressure error’ occur, the NCB700 comes with a NaviFill keyless filling system, so only one lever needs to be lifted to get things back up and running. Easy peasy.

And as time goes on, the unit will ingeniously learn and adapt to your hot water usage patterns, allowing it to intelligently recognise when to preheat and provide lashings of hot water when you need it. That’s all to say, you’ll never have to stress about your boiler ever again.

Building for the future

Extra plus points come from the fact that there’s no need for a cumbersome water storage tank with this new boiler, creating even more valuable space in your home — just think of the endless interior design possibilities.

And finally, in designing the NCB700, Navien is fully supporting the UK government’s long-term Net Zero Strategy by making the system able to run on a mixture of 20 per cent hydrogen and 80 per cent natural gas, without the need for any modification. It’s a boiler built for the future, ready to make a huge difference to your day-to-day right now.

Whether you have a bijou balcony, a gargantuan garden or a prim patio, these plastic pots will give your space a smart, sophisticated feel, while keeping to a sensible budget. At just £9.99 each, these beauties certainly don’t look so purse-friendly, and even rival those sold through esteemed garden charity, the Royal Horticultural Society.

A fantastic dupe of the terracotta classic, Aldi’s outdoor plant pots are much lighter, meaning they can easily be moved from spot to spot in your garden. It also means you can play with their positioning, popping them up garden steps, on ladder shelves or even outside your front door for easy garden ideas. And at more than half the price, you just can’t go wrong!

While this offering from Riverhill Garden Supplies may be slightly smaller than the Aldi dupes, it is still pricier, coming in at £20.95, rather than at a modest £9.99. Similarly, these glazed plant pots from Heritage Garden Pottery, come in almost four times more expensive, at £44.99 each, pricing many out of being able to enjoy their traditional style.

But luckily, that is where supermarket Aldi comes in, with its designer dupes ready to inspire a whole host of garden ideas.

Arranged in a trio, or dotted around your outdoor space, these outdoor plant pots won’t stick around for long, so be sure to snap yours up, as soon as they launch online and in store this Sunday.
