new combi boiler

by GEOJUL123 » Wed Mar 11, 2009 8:58 am

I am replacing my old combi-boiler with a new one, Just looking for advice on which is best boiler, I have three quotes from RGI's one has quoted to fit a Valiant, one for a Vokera and the third and Ideal. All 'A' rated boilers and all three quotes include TRV's on radiators and progamable thermostat control. and there is only £150 difference between cheapest and dearest quote , so is just a decision which of the three boilers has the best reputaion for quality and reliability??

Any comments appreciated.

Vaillant by far the best.

Same for Vokera, when you start looking for an RGI to repair the boiler, as soon as you say Vokera their interest in the job will become non-existant.

If you pick up an Ideal you will certainly have to replace it again within 4-5 years, especially if it is an isar, the heat exchanger wears away.

yes to: Vaillant, worcester, remeha-broag.
