Advise on a NEW indirect unvented hot cylinder

[Sharp Point]

OSO all the way for me.
Never ever had a prob & honest impartial pre-sale advice to the the point of non-supply if not thought truly beneficial or performance considered borderline

I installed one just before crimbo, slightly impressed.... but not cheap

Vaillant uniSTORE for me as well as Vaillant System boiler. I wouldn’t want to mix the brands though but that’s down to budget and preference.

Personally I wouldn't fit mega flo. You're not getting anything extra for the extra money.

All your estimates from g3 qualified people?

Hi Simon,
Those are exactly my thoughts, I'd usually go for a top of the range, but in this case, it seems that it's not worth 40%-50% more.
Yes, all the plumbers that came and quoted are G3 qualified. I know you need a G3 certificate to work with pressurised systems, so I'd expect them to leave a certificate after install, as otherwise it doesn't pass inspection and will cause issues when it comes to selling the house.

Building control certificate takes 4-6 weeks!

Building control certificate takes 4-6 weeks! Benchmark certificate should be completed on completion

Thanks for heads up Jase. I will ask for benchmark certificate on completion. Do I need to get building control certificate after the job is complete or just before selling the house?

It should arrive around 4-6 weeks after installation. If it doesn't arrive then chase up the plumber.
