    PROTHERM, combi boiler, F1, fault

    Landlord supplying own boiler

    Nope, not worth it , who sorts or pays for any problems. Disaster and aggro waiting to happen and if they are that tight that they want to save any profit on you buying the boiler they sure as hell ain't gonna pay for it in added labour charges.

    Advice Needed on New Boiler Quote

    Duo tec for me, good workhorse. Like the Ideal but one or two issues which would make me avoid. Worcester ok but for me overpriced mediocrity.

    New install positioning

    Totally correct but best of luck with either Gassafe or building control being interested unless the neighbour makes a complaint. Lost out on one myself not a couple of weeks ago when I quoted correctly, with a Gassafe co fitting one with a flue discharging at chest height straight across a...

    Boiler Plus April 2018

    interested in people's thoughts- no chance that any of it is going to be done in my opinion as people are massively price conscious and the chuck it in merchants won't comply making those of us trying to do the job correctly looking even more expensive.

    3rd ATAG fitted........

    Had a look at them myself , but even the guy for atag told me to avoid their controls particularly the wireless ones. Problem I had was selling a boiler most people have never heard of and for Worcester / Vaillant money. Liked the look of the boiler to be fair.

    Full CH system prices?

    Totally agree, just shows the disparity between the north and south. If you tried charging 4-5 grand for central heating round here in a three bed semi, you'd be going hungry and laughed from the house and outta business very quick.

    Jobs following other plumbers work?

    Vans vans vans ......

    Lucky you, got the transit custom sport - beautiful van but lots of software glitches - been in the garage 7 times in first year - strangely still really like the van

    Landlord gas cert pricing?

    The problem is gas engineers taking the work on at really crap prices . If everybody charged the correct price for doing the work PROPERLY then landlords would have to pay it. The price shouldn't be dictated by the customer but the engineer.

    Baxi combi pressure issue

    Must admit to getting a bit the same, because you take the time to repressurise it and it fails to cure it 2/3days later ,then they never expect to pay for one of the visits
