Hi can anyone steer me in the right direction on the best GAS boiler to run a 4 bed house it will have about 9 rads over 3 levels (after loft conversion) i have been looking at a worcester greenstar 34cdi this seems to be A rated

Any boiler that you have fitted will have to be an 'A' rated condensing boiler.

If your after an efficient boiler, you'll want one that condenses in both hot water and heating modes, most combi boilers only condense in heating mode, meaning they are less efficient when being used for hot water.

Good point that pal, WB have been doing that for 12 years with the HE and now continues with CDi range

whats the problem with the hot water?

Have a read of Vogue have a look thread......basically TB fitted a 32 kw one replacing an aged Vokera, hot water was less than good, even though the Vokera was only 28 kw I think, so Ideals solution is to replace the 32kw vogue with a 40 kw vogue hhhmmmmmm

Yeah the later ones are ok, but early ones riddled with faults, div valve, PCB's, flue seals etc good idea the PRV into condensate, others should follow!
