Replacement Boiler Advice

[PhilTilson]

Grateful for any advice regarding this problem.

Flat about to be let and main heat exchanger in Worcester Bosch Greenstar 24i Junior has failed!

I can replace with identical model (I think!) but would prefer to use GC2000iW C if possible. Question is, can the 2000 fit directly onto the 24i mounting frame? If so, it's going to make installation a helluva lot easier!

Appreciate any advice.

Worcester fixed price repair may cover new main heat exchanger?

There's very rarely ever a 'straight swap' so I wouldn't pick the next boiler on that reason. It's a days work normally including a bit of pipe adjustments no matter which manufacturer/model etc.
We fit a lot of Baxi 800's in our rentals, they are great value, have a good warranty and easy to install.

You seen they’ve updated to the newer model ?

I've seen the marketing material promoting the new version but not an actual boiler, has much changed? We're heading to the Installer show on Thursday so was hoping to have a look at one then.
