Chaps,

Questions about finishing.

Do I need to replace a copper cylinder when installing a new system boiler, I am reluctant to do this because it is fitted with an immersion heater connected to a solar electric booster? Any thought?

I have had 2 different opinions from gas engineers.
To replace my old conventional boiler with a new combi boiler, it seems the connecting pipes are the wrong size (too small). Not sure if this is gas or water pipes.
One engineer says pipes need to be replaced, the other says not. What are the...

It's been a while since I've been in the market for a new boiler, but sadly the time has come. I've been looking at one of the Ideal Vogues, the main reason being the 10 year warranty being offered by some of the installers in my area.
The thing is, I seem to remember hearing about Ideal...

Can anyone tell me what this phrase means on an invoice? I've just had a new condensing boiler installed to replace a combi that was 21 years old. Is the work below enough? (The engineer said he was doing a powerflush - is that what this is? Or should I be worried?)...
