Whats the best boiler

[lame plumber]

Are you on a commission Jon :lol:

nope, just found something I really like

Nah - pretty soon someone would be boasting about their 11 yr upgrade, and someone else would be moaning that long warranties meant less replacement work.

I love these long warranties, servicings easy work. You know how long they'll take, and custs have no choice to keep there warranty. Never had so much servicing.

Why haven't they got a decent warranty?

 

[lame plumber]

5 years is reasonable, I suspect theyll get longer as they do in europe idc.

Obviously Intergas for top of the range. Budget Combi Ideal Independent, Budget heat only Main HE.

Have been reading about the intergas in various posts always with high regard. Never fitted one. Are they that good Mike? Why? Always liked the Vaillant's that I fit if I can.

it's the 22mm waterways and no secondary heat exchanger that do it for me.

How easy is it to replace primary hex when scaled up?

The rep who's also an engineer says you can de scale them. It's a rough looking bit of kit though, and the programmers pants.

hex in coppper tube so no issues with a descale. Re the programmer, i have yet to find a customer who can under stand anything more than on off twice a day, so why put in a multiple switching day to day programmer anyhow. How can a bit of rectangular plastic case look rough, unless boiler spotting is your hobby!

 

[Leo21]

I like them, but they look alarmingly like an old ariston. And the timers more difficult to use than most.

Wow you really are a fan, what did your misses say when she came home to find all that on the kitchen wall?

This is a lovely boiler !

Ohh that's going to make some money can I have an R8 now?

What's a c5 when it's at home. Know a car that sounds similar sl500?
