Good afternoon all,

Few days ago I woke up and I didn't have warm water nor heating. I did call British Gas straight away and they sent an engineer who came to have a look. The engineer managed to fix the warm water but he said it was not possible to fix the heating since he couldn't control the temperature. He suggested to get a new boiler since mine is 20 years old now, and it's not in the best conditions (also the display screen is not working which is not helpful). The one I have now is an Ideal isar HE30.

British have quoted me several boilers but they are very expensive (around 2.5k).

After doing some research online, I have found some others around 2k (Worcester Greenstar 4000 25kw for example), which they have 12 years warranty and they seem quite decent. However, I don't have a big knowledge of boilers and I would like to know if you know any site where I can get one (boiler + installation) for a reasonable price, and if there is any boiler I should avoid.

Many thanks!
 
tbh as above the boiler comes in around 1.2-1.5k on its own if you want a cheaper have a look at main eco compacts

Hello, I am seeking some advice, I have a POTTERTON PROMAX 28 COMBI Boiler and I noticed yesterday that the water around the house is no longer warming up. The heat exchanger has been changed 6 months ago, so I do not believe it is that. Does anyone have any ideas on what it could be? Thanks

Hi all. Hope you have all been keeping well. A while back I decided I only wanted to fit one brand of boiler and decided on Viessmann due to space for servicing and changing parts if ever needing to. I am finding my decision rather hard due to the different clearances on flue runs and cupboards...
