Combi boiler best make to buy

[steve_has_prob]

Looking to get a new Combi boiler any advice of best model would be great

 

[bigbaddave]

Baxi all day long... that what my plumber told me anyway..

Reason there the most expensive...

I'm having a Bosch 28i being fitted in my house on Sunday.

I hope it's a good one...

Vaillant 28 pro, or Worcester Bosch, both are 2 of the best brands for combi's

Lots of councils are fitting the Vaillants as their so reliable, and the Worcester, real quality also

I brought a Biasi and she played up after only a few months after we got her fitted

You'll always have trouble with female boilers.

I'm retired now, but I always liked the Baxi Duotech - it's relatively easy to fit and was winning awards for this and its reliability.

In my own house, I fitted a Worcester Greenstar 37CDI because it was the "right price" at the time, and it was probably one of the most awkward to fit that I've ever encountered as I was bringing all the pipework in from the top and to do that there are some stupid bends to make behind the boiler and not much room to make them.

Whatever combi you choose, always get a big powerful one - not less than 30kW (mine is 37kW) - and you will still be able to get a hot shower or fill a bath in reasonable time in winter when the incoming water is that bit colder.

I've also fitted Vailant and Vokera and they were OK. I've fitted a couple of Biasi but you already know about them ....

Thats women for you....

Imho the only combis out there worth fitting are vaillant glowworm or intergas

 

[sparky3366]

Worecester Bosch or the new Ideal Logic boilers are good...easy to wire as well

 

[Megavolt]

Vaillant all day long great boilers

Valliant mate we install four a week and never a problem

Then you'll know that the name is VAILLANT.

Vaillant | The UK's number 1 heating manufacturer

Unless of course you're referring to the boilers in this: http://www.history.navy.mil/photos/sh-fornv/uk/uksh-v/valiant.htm

Take a look at a company called intergas , virtually no moving parts and they've never had a heat exchanger fail. Def my next purchase.

Hi Chris.

I was reading a book about the Russian convoys of WW2 that was so gripping I couldn't put down and before I knew where I was it was this ungodly hour !!!

Kind Regards
