Are you asking advice or asking for an installer?

Ideally a quote, but if you feel it's a simple job for an able DIYer then advice I am happy to take. I am not too bad with DIY and as I say the boiler and pipe work are easy to get at.

Well if you're replacing the internal, obviously you need a GSR installer

( I know you are fitting an external but thought I'd throw it in to be sure).

If it's external it needs to go on the return pipe if you do it yourself.

Price wise, I would expect in my part of the world £125 to £150 plus VAT there and there abouts, provided that it is as easy as you say i.e. Less than a couple of hours work and there are no other issues involved, plenty of wall space to hang it etc etc !
