Went on their training course last year and all seems good but still not fitted any.
What is your opinion on them guys?
Also do you think the commissioning of them is a bit long winded?
I am currently fitting Logic plus and Vaillant boilers but Alpha prices are looking quite good for the low end...
Just had some combi boiler quotes in, quoting for Glow-Worm and Alpha boilers. I've never heard of either and wondered if anyone had any experience good or bad.
I've not done many of these - fewer than half a dozen I reckon, and the last time was probably 4 years ago!
Got two to do in the next couple of weeks - has anybody got a step-by-step list of what checks I ought to be doing?
I don't mean boiler-specific stuff but overall checks. I'm fine on...
Just saw this in the local news...
Not sure how they valued 3 boilers at 10k lol!

Hi lads. Just servicing a couple of these atmospheric gas boilers. Has anyone heard of them or who the suppliers are. They're dated 2002.
Theyre in pretty good working order. Just wondering where to get spares from.

got to price up combi boiler for good customer. i have been fitting ideal logic + or baxi platinums of late. is there any other boilers you guys like to fit with decent warranties?
Evening lads I am relatively new to power flushing.
what are people's views of flushing boilers? I have only flushed boilers with cast heat exchangers through fear of damage.
i always get a disclaimer signed (off the kamco website)
if I am unsure of its a combi I just attach it in the f&r...
Now we have modulating boilers, out side weather compensation, and apps to turn heating on as we drive home has anyone arranged variable flow temps. to match purpose. ie. >75 C when heating DHW and <65C for underfloor heating. The programme clearly defines the purpose but apart from viessmann 4...
Evening all,
I noticed Plumb Center are selling old stock non ErP boilers at reduced prices.
Can we as installers still install these and register them? Or is it a big no no??
Many thanks

Hi can some tell me if the inter gas combi boilers have a flow restrictor built in like others do? Reason I'm asking i went out to a job where the customer has bought a house with this boiler already installed. The problem is when they open the taps fully open it gets Luke warm water but if you...
Hi all,
I'm after some advice from those that know.....
Is there a smart control compatible with the Worcester Greenstar 30Ri, I know the Wave isn't but not sure about the likes of Nest or Hive because of the 230V switching.
I spoke to Worcester tech and they just told me Wave wasn't...
Any one having problems getting hold of the new Baxi Blue range ? Would like to use more Baxi boilers but they have a very limited range in LPG, Now I have the chance to fit a Blue heat only boiler told it may take up to 2 weeks to get one, unless I am prepared to pay £40 carriage charge...
Quick question, my mate is looking to replace his boiler but is basically a tight Arse :) are the main heat only boilers any good as they seem to be rather cheap compared to the others and are they as economical to run as the likes of Worcester and ideal?
Cheers guys.
Hi,
Can anyone let me know of any all round boiler fault finding courses that I could attend to increase fix rate???
I am fairly new to fault finding and want to avoid expensive mistakes.
Thanks
