The GC number on your boiler's data badge identifies the exact appliance and production years, as recorded in the UK Product Characteristics Database.
| GC number | Appliance (register name) | Produced |
|---|---|---|
| 47-019-38 | Energy2 30c -A (P-GB) | 2018–present |
Appliance names and production years are taken from the UK Product Characteristics Database (the SAP/SEDBUK register). Where a GC number is also printed in this model's own manufacturer manual, both sources were checked to agree.
