Hi All

Your favourite sponsor has FIVE (count them, one, two, three, four, FIVE) Intergas boilers to give away. Each one is worth a thousand (inc VAT) of your Great British Pounds.

Absolutely free. No charge. Not a penny. We will even throw in a jig, flue kit and delivery. Your bank balance will not be depleted by so much as a brass farthing.

Before I go any further, I should express my inestimable thanks to Mr Steve Zouch, Mr Jim Boyce and Mr Andy Burton of Intergas for their spectacular generosity in providing these boilers, and for their bottle in putting their product in front of all of you for honest review.

The boiler in question is the top-of-the-range 30kw Combi Compact ECO-RF. This is not the boiler that most Intergas users will be aware of (the HRE is the well known one). The ECO-RF range is a souped-up version and has all the features one expects of Intergas - easy maintenance, separate expansion, just 4 moving parts, legendary heat-ex, hot water available even when the pump fails, along with:
  • Built in Honeywell RF programmable stat
  • 10 year warranty* (so long as you attend the manufacturers training course)

If you will forgive me for lapsing into the vernacular, this is the mutts nuts.

To qualify for this freebie, you must be:

  • a Gas Safe Registered engineer.
  • the main decision maker in your business.
  • An Intergas virgin. So you must not ever have fitted an Intergas boiler, or been on one of their courses.

By submitting your application for a freebie, you agree to the following conditions:
  • You will attend an Intergas training course (approx 4 hours) at one of their 21 training centres around the country before you receive your free boiler.
  • You (and your customer if necessary) will co-operate with the Intergas marketing team if requested for photos and/or interviews
  • You agree to write an honest review on this forum of your experience with the training course and the boiler. The review does not have to be positive, but any criticisms should be constructive


Here's how this will work.

Starting this weekend, once a week for 4 weeks, I will post a question on this thread, along with an invitation to contact me via PM. The question will relate to some technical aspect of the boiler, so you might like to have a browse round their website to get ahead.

On each occasion, the first 7 qualifying people to contact me with the correct answer and their contact details, will go into the pot for a free boiler. By a process which is entirely private to me and Intergas, and against which there is no appeal, the winner of the freebie will be selected. Over the course of the week, we will reveal the name of one loser per day, eventually unmasking that weeks winner. We will then start the process again for the next week.

Winners cannot re-enter, but if you are one of the unlucky 6 who are rejected during the week, there is nothing to stop you having another go next week.

Winners of the Vogue freebie which we ran last year are specifically excluded, just to spread the love around. :)

But that's FOUR weeks and there are FIVE boilers!

Don't worry. One of the winners has already been selected. The first person (apart from the individual concerned) who can tell me who it is, and why, will receive a bottle of champage from me personally to celebrate their percipicacity.

So watch this thread with care- and await the first of the killer questions!

And thanks again to Steve Zouch and the team at Intergas for being such open-handed good sports.

am i close??????

I'm an Intergas virgin as well,but I'm not on the list :furious3:
 
Has the question happened yet??
The boiler in my flat roadted itself today so i have been out of the loop :(
 
Ray will no doubt taunt and tease us a while longer yet
 
Ohh another giveaway for the part time self employed people. Nothing for us full timers!

Ray don't fall the "I'll give it to charity" lines. A Scotsman giving to charity?! The worlds gone mad!

Having said that I'd love that bottle of bubbly and my guess is Jules?!
 
you push and push Ray and others to let him do intergas and then you have to be a virgin...............mutter mutter looking for the dislike button
 
Still not seen it, i like the look of intergas, a free boiler would go great to charity wink
 
Its not me. Thought about fitting intergas but no one near me sells them. So this would be a good to try one if lucky enough to win one. Like the idea of offering another 10 year warranty boiler

Ten year on hex only from what I read.
 
10 year warranty from July*

New offer maybe?

Might be able to sell one now.
 
Intergas are virtually unheard of around my area, wouldn't mind a training course to see what the fuss is about
 
I tried to get on an Intergas training course and they blew me off!! Must be too small fish for their boilers!
 
Don't worry. One of the winners has already been selected. The first person (apart from the individual concerned) who can tell me who it is, and why, will receive a bottle of champage from me personally to celebrate their percipicacity.

Ok, so one managed to work that one out. Tut tut, I expected better from you. :)

Just to make it clear, the bottle of champers is now OFF the table, but you might find the answer you are looking for in post #217 of this thread.
 
Firstly, lets remind you of the rules:

To qualify for this freebie, you must be:

  • a Gas Safe Registered engineer.
  • the main decision maker in your business.
  • An Intergas virgin. So you must not ever have fitted an Intergas boiler, or been on one of their courses.

By submitting your application for a freebie, you agree to the following conditions:
  • You will attend an Intergas training course (approx 4 hours) at one of their 21 training centres around the country before you receive your free boiler.
  • You (and your customer if necessary) will co-operate with the Intergas marketing team if requested for photos and/or interviews
  • You agree to write an honest review on this forum of your experience with the training course and the boiler. The review does not have to be positive, but any criticisms should be constructive


Here's how this will work.

Starting this weekend, once a week for 4 weeks, I will post a question on this thread, along with an invitation to contact me via PM. The question will relate to some technical aspect of the boiler, so you might like to have a browse round their website to get ahead.

Over the course of the week, we will reveal the name of one loser per day, eventually unmasking that weeks winner. We will then start the process again for the next week.

Winners cannot re-enter, but if you are one of the unlucky 6 who are rejected during the week, there is nothing to stop you having another go next week.

Winners of the Vogue freebie which we ran last year are specifically excluded, just to spread the love around. :)

And thanks again to Steve Zouch and the team at Intergas for being such open-handed good sports.


OK, here we go with free boiler #1

The first 7 qualifying people who PM me with the correct answer AND

Their real name
Full postal address inc postcode
Business name of which they are the primary decision maker
Gas safe number
Email address
Phone number

The question is: According the brochure on the intergas website here, to the nearest Kilo, what is the weight of an Intergas CombiCompact ECO-RF 30?

This week is now closed
