Hi all

Doing a full roof to ground refurb on an old rural property and looking for oil boiler reccomendations. I've happened upon the Navien brand but am unfamiliar with them-Firebird and Grant are in the mix too....

Installation as proposed is a 28kW external system boiler feeding LLH to unvented cylinder, VT circuit and background partial UFH.

All experience and opinion welcome...

navien oil boiler is basically a Saturn oil boiler rebadged so theres history there to look up via Saturn.
The Navien rep was ready to take a load of us out for dinner and talk shop unfortunately the virus hit simultaneously.From what i can see they are made of quality components plus you have the unheard off ten year warranty.Fantastic!
Plus the rep here in N.Ireland is a knowledgeable gentleman and actually answers all calls which is rare for most reps in the heating industry.
Best of luck either way the other two boilers are extremely reliable.
