Ideal Logic plus for me.

 

[Meady]

As above, fitted a ideal logic+30 combi boiler the other day, really good piece of kit and £400 cheaper than the equivalent Worcester bosch.

Baxi duo tec, as long as you can put up with poor after service. Never fitted the ideal logic, but heard good things.

Obviously Intergas for top of the range. Budget Combi Ideal Independent, Budget heat only Main HE.

Haven't come across anything better than ATAG IMHO.

Dont your merchants stock any thing else then?:77:

Logic plus is great value for money. Can't bring myself to fit a dirty, leaky baxi.

Poor after service? Heat team out perform all others all if the time up here . Wb can take over a week for no heating no hot water fault heat team same day.

Ive heard differing reports. Vaillants back up is ace, same day most often. That's if you need them, which isn't very often.

We only fit Baxi ideal and valiant. If you want wb or some other pap jog on. Baxi leaky horrible boilers? You not thinking of greenstar?

They don't stock them and it's the only thing I don't buy from them.

 

[Ermintrude]

This is a lovely boiler !

You need to look at more than just cost. If you look at it as a cost of how long it lasts and stays reliable you will not beat a vaillant. The only boiler I would fit in my house.

 

[tamz]

I'd fit anything in mine. Couldn't care less what it is as long as i get it for free :wink:

 

[Leo21]

Sometimes a crystall ball is required. I've recently seen le blancs and old ferrolis still running , who knew !

 

[Kewat66]

Any opinions on the Remeha Advanta?

Not me, can't think of anything worse than my own boiler quitting, and having to fix it after work or at the weekend. And the absolute worse thing would be my Mrs nagging the life out of me!

Needs another 100kg+ to be any good 😉

The Modena's were actually ok the rest were junk.

The really old one,massive square thing. At least twenty years old.

I wouldn't dream of fixing it. If it goes wrong it gets dragged off the wall and scrapped :lol:

The one with the grey plastic flap. Nothing in them to go wrong.

 

[Ray Stafford]

Just as well you will never all agree.

 

[lame plumber]

wouldnt fit another remeha avanta, to much grief fm some I have! intergas are the only thing for me

 

[tamz]

Are you on a commission Jon :lol:

 

[Killy Bing]

We all agree that merchants should offer a 10 year warrenty...........

Nah - pretty soon someone would be boasting about their 11 yr upgrade, and someone else would be moaning that long warranties meant less replacement work.

 

[Billy Bob Bob]

baxi duotec HEA if you live in wales aftercare's second to none

 

[Billy Bob Bob]

This is a lovely boiler !

looks like a duotec HEA inside so will be a good one

 

[lame plumber]

Are you on a commission Jon :lol:

nope, just found something I really like 🙂

I love these long warranties, servicings easy work. You know how long they'll take, and custs have no choice to keep there warranty. Never had so much servicing.

 

[Leo21]

nope, just found something I really like 🙂

Why haven't they got a decent warranty?

 

[lame plumber]

5 years is reasonable, I suspect theyll get longer as they do in europe idc.

Have been reading about the intergas in various posts always with high regard. Never fitted one. Are they that good Mike? Why? Always liked the Vaillant's that I fit if I can.
