Boiler choices.

Off to do a quote tomorrow, gonna offer Vaillant Pro and Plus, and the Logic and Vogue.

Been quoted £831+ for the vogue inc flue (not £975 - I knew they were discountable!) which only makes it £24 cheaper than the 831. Really want to give one a try but have a feeling it might bite me on the bum.

What do you guys think?

P.S. don't tell me to fit a Worcester, or an intergas, or a viessman, or a baxi. These are the only options. Just want to know what you think about an untested, expensive boiler.

Looking at the Vogue they are very like the Vaillant internals. If you fit one let us know how similar they are.

 

[dancinplumba]

both have warranties 🙂

I'm in the same boat, I pulled out of including the Vogue in a quote as I wasn't confident fitting a pricey boiler that had only just been released!

One will benefit the UK economy, One the German

I'm fitting a Logic + tomorrow, I'm doing my bit to keep 'Ol Blighty afloat! On that note, I might start installing Heatlines and Ferollis, that will keep hundreds of breakdown engineers in jobs 😀

If we wanna stay in business i recommend potterton puma's ! My gas lad looked after housing estate that all had them he used to park in round and walk from door to door fixing em!

Actually Dancin, was just thinking about a 28/24 combi, where do you get yours?

Vogue actually has better specs than EcoTEC at first glance.

Plumbase tom, Used an independent for a while but they are now offering me good price. prefer to use independent but moneys money 🙂

 

[TBServices]

Hmmmm, I might try to sway them! Been waiting for my chance! Also, the reason they're after a new boiler is the plate to plate has gone on their old boiler.

Only thing is, I'm only gonna get 3 year warranty on intergas, which may be a problem.

Might try that new trappex filter too, £56 at the gas safety shop online.

 

[dancinplumba]

putting another one in on monday and will have the trappex filter too.
sway them by telling them they will save money on repairs in the future

The HW is more efficient too. Looks like a winner to me. I'm getting all excited!

One thing with the vouge being so new Ideal will jump on any problems sharpish so even if an issue arises should be stood on quite quickly.

Plus you can tell us what they're like as well 😉

Hadn't realised these were available now, may have to order a couple up to try, has any one tried one yet?

Those trapex filters look nasty, anyone fitted one? Seven year warranty on vaillant now.

Dunno yet not seeing it till tomorrow but I know BG quoted £2500 for a 24 junior.

 

[hammers4spanner]

[TBServices]

Tbf it was £3100 until the "£400 boiler scrappage" and "£200 north of England bonus" LOL!

Is that a conversion/upgrade or a swap?

So in other words they have talked the cust into a boiler change lol

you gotta stand a chance then at getting that

 

[Destroyer2813]

Bg have got a little more realistic i did one november time and i was only 200 cheaper in the end, they where at the 4 grand figure and talked it down to 2500

 

[TBServices]

Swap. Vokera option out I think.

 

[Leo21]

I wouldn't mind 2.5k for a swap, you can beat that and still make good money.
