HEAT EXCHANGER IS STEEL MUCH BETTER boiler advice needed

[Alpha man]

Just priced an Atag ic35 economiser, £1095 +vat, includes foc flue.

understand i have to listen to engineers but i just dont fancy a baxi, all i get told is they the bmws of boilers maybe in NE they all where trained in baxi

Atag are meant to be the nuts. not personally registered with them but a few local installers swear by them. I personally fit vaillant or glowworm. wouldn't contemplate fitting a baxi. aftersales is poor in my opinion.

i know dad has a baxi and its failed every year from being 2 year old but been fixed as he now has breakdown cover, That seems a cheap rice for a ATAG was told they over £600 more than a baxi platinum.

awating a fitter to get back to me who apparently does ATAG

No Intergas fans here then?

 

[sammathias]

Only 4 moving parts

I've counted the moving parts in my vaillant and count 4. Pump,fan,gas valve and pressure guage.

Hi Jajodu, you forgot about the diverter which is the most unreliable moving part. I have 4 Vailant Tubro Max and on average have had to replace 2 diverters every year.

Something's wrong if your replacing them twice a year
