Ideal ICombi - Plumbase - how does it compare to the logic.

[cascas]

I have just noticed that Plumbase are selling an Ideal Icombi - I suspect that this is a logic independant with another case, has anyone seen one in the flesh, are the internals the same>?

 

[diamondgas]

I think they're the left over Esprit re-packaged

 

[Billy Bob Bob]

the internals look good when cut in half by a big axe

Cant agree more. Buy one, take it out the box, polish it, paint it black, hit it with a hammer then throw it in the scrap!

 

[diamondgas]

The axe is back

The axe is back

got a brand new one,needs calibrating in a year:61:that reminds me the antons telling me its due in jan,sigh the costs roll on

 

[diamondgas]

I've decided to run my old fgs to death then get a new one"!! I'm gettin sick and tired of the need for this up to date testing carp!!! :lol:

 

[Billy Bob Bob]

its only a year old bought a anton v1 after the high costs and reliability of my old tpi,with the anton first year calibration is £50plus p+p

 

[cascas]

Not sure if it is an esprit, the burner/expansion vessel are vertical next to each other, looking at the diagrams it seems more like a logic than an esprit - however part numbers for the esprit and logic do not seem to match the icombi

My local merchants have got them in and they an independent in a different case

I might be thinking if the I Mini? I might have gotten a bit mixed up, I may even be totally wrong with the Imini being a repackaged Esprit!!!! :lol: they've chopped and changed so bleedn' much

 

[GQuigley67]

imini looks the same as the logic but cheaper and are on sale in plumb centre

Cheers Gery I thought it resembled one of the Ideal's & yep it was plumb centre where I'd seen it! Actually fit one for a Landlord a month or so back! that should keep me in repairs for a while :rofl:

 

[GQuigley67]

i think the logic + seems a decent boiler, installed alot of them in the past few months, look easy to repair, tells customer when to contact installer if there is a leak etc, installed 2 espirts and they are rubbish

 

[diamondgas]

I don't do many installs but like yourself have chosen the Logic+ on a few occasions. Only had one issue with a hot water turbine! The esprit has the isar pcb YAK!!!

 

[GQuigley67]

it is the isars wee bro i think lol its almost identical

 

[Mbear]

I wouldn't buy or recommend an ideal. Full stop.
