heatline vizo combi

[boxhead]

hi everyone, im boxhead and new to the forum. about 18 months ago i bought a renovated cottage. ever since we have been there our heatline vizo that was allredy installed has been totally useless eg. some rooms i have to run the hot water for ages and it only gets luke warm, the water practically stops and i have to keep opening the tap. this is not a patch on any other combi we have had. is it the combi? bad installation? have they a good write up?im thinking of getting a valliant or worcester although it is only about 18 months old. any advice is appreciated. many thanks boxhead.😕😕

Would'nt totally agree with above, Potterton Performa looks very much like a Chaffoteaux (Ariston) to me, I know for some years Baxi (who own Potterton ) have had links with Chaffoteaux, Spare parts were in a Chaff box with a baxi sticker stuck over the top and a price increase of about 70%, not sure if still the same. I have to say the best boiler I have seen to date has to be the Buderus Combi 600, real quality.

i would go for vaillant 831 eco tec,but before you start spending,get your current boiler gas rated,might not be gassed up properly

just had a plumber and he said who on earth plumbed this in, what a pile of you know what. looks like a need the system looked at as he has run plastic pipework right up to the boiler.cheers.
